Electing a president is not the only high-stakes choice voters will make in November. In Ohio, citizens will vote on a state constitutional amendment that would end gerrymandering. Voters in 10 states have the opportunity to amend their constitutions to affirm or expand protections for abortion care. Three states will decide whether to remove language against same-sex marriage from their constitutions.
Half of all states have a constitutional right to direct democracy, allowing citizens to place statutory or constitutional proposals on the ballot and pass them by popular vote. But some lawmakers and other elected officials are trying to reduce citizens’ power to enact policy through ballot initiatives.
Join this expert discussion about the issues on state ballots in the 2024 election and trends to watch.
