At least initiative and referendum would allow people some hope for reform.

The 1967 referendum allowed for Aboriginal to be included in census figures.

Dueling referendums will allow each side to gauge its support.

Initiatives and referendums, by contrast, allow citizens to vote directly on legislation.

In 1926, voters approved a referendum allowing the manufacture of beer, if not its consumption.

The referendum also allowed for design for one of the first indoor water parks in the Southeast.

Finally, one more piece of legislation must be prepared: a referendum in 1989 allowing ratepayers to vote on the settlement.

A year later, another referendum allowed sales tax proceeds to be used to generate bonds, to allow quicker purchases.

It should be remembered that the referendum held last year, which did not comply with any democratic principles, allowed him to hold this position for life.

A subsequent referendum allowed Caledonia to become a village.
