Texas doesn’t allow for citizens to gather signatures to put something directly on the ballot. The politicians control everything.

CA citizens used a citizen-led ballot initiative to take the redistricting keys away from the legislature. Stuff like this has to go before voters in CA.

The people are more in control in CA.

Texas has gone so far right, they might as well be 100% in control of every thing a person does at this point.

Every prop appears to have passed yesterday, and only a few are good ideas.
