Ballot Propositions -- The "Wild Card" of Politics,
By A Customer
This review is from: Citizen Lawmakers (Paperback)
Have you ever said, in frustration, "There ought to be a law"? If so, the book Citizen Lawmakers is for you. Every election day in America, millions of voters decide not just whom to elect -- the voters make the laws directly, at the ballot box -- by voting on ballot propositions, also known as Initiatives and Referendums. Citizen Lawmakers answers all your questions about this growing political phenomenon. Why do some states have controversial ballot proposition campaigns, and others don't? How did voters get the power to enact laws? How can I get a proposition on the ballot in my home city or state? What kinds of laws have the voters enacted this way? How did California's tax-cutting Proposition 13 come about? Why do so many politicians hate citizen-sponsored ballot propositions? It's all here. |
