Question 19 • Initial Credit: American Government (.5 Credit)

Which example would qualify as a ballot initiative in Georgia?

Answer

A

Voters recall a member of the Georgia State Board of Education for ethics violations.

B

Voters propose and approve a law that regulates the making of short-term loans.

C

Voters repeal a law passed by the legislature banning smoking in public parks.

D

Voters craft a constitutional amendment giving the courts the power to change sentencing guidelines for criminals.

Explanation

A ballot initiative lets voters propose a new law and place it before voters for approval. Choice B describes voters proposing and approving a law regulating short-term loans. Recalling an official is a different process, while repealing a law or proposing a constitutional amendment does not fit the described initiative process in Georgia.
