Best Answer

Submitting a proposed measure for voting by the general public is known as a referendum or ballot initiative. It allows citizens to directly participate in the decision-making process by voting on a specific issue or proposed law. This method gives individuals the opportunity to have a direct say in shaping legislation or determining important policies.
