Laws governing direct democracy in Minnesota
From Ballotpedia
Direct democracy options available in Minnesota include:
- Voters can vote on legislatively-referred constitutional amendments.
- Up until 2009, voters could vote on what are known in Minnesota as reverse referenda.[1][2]
- If 25% of the property owners in a district signed a petition, a vote could be held.
- The relevant town board was then required to hold a special election within the boundaries of the relevant political district not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days after receiving the petition.
