The California Constitutional Conventions were two separate constitutional conventions that took place in California during the nineteenth century which led to the creation of the modern Constitution of California. The first,known as the 1849 Constitutional Convention of Monterey,held in September and October 1849 in advance of California attaining U.S. statehood the following year,adopted the state's original constitution. This document maintains jurisdiction along with the current constitution which was ratified on May 7,1879,following the 1879 Constitutional Convention of Sacramento. Article 3 Section 2 of the current Constitution references the original boundaries as stated in the 1849 Constitution at Article 12. The result of Progressive mistrust of elected officials,this later constitution took a full year to finalize and has been described as "the perfect example of what a constitution ought not to be". Multiple calls for a third state constitutional convention have been raised during the past quarter-century,but none has thus far gained widespread political momentum.
