“Elections provide an opportunity for electorates to hold politicians accountable, and to signal support or disagreement with officials currently in office. In California, we also have a number of ballot propositions that allow California voters to vote directly on policy and law, in addition to voting on representatives to make law for us. Do you think this is a good thing, since it allows for the voice of the people to more directly make decisions? Or do you think it is a dangerous thing since it doesn’t allow decisions to be filtered through a deliberative body like a legislature that could conceivably improve decision-making? ”
