Direct democracy in the United States today primarily takes the form of ballot initiatives, referendums, and recall elections. Ballot initiatives allow citizens to propose laws or constitutional amendments that can be voted on directly by the electorate. Referendums enable voters to decide on specific legislative measures or policies. Recall elections provide a mechanism for voters to remove elected officials from office before their term ends.
