 A democracy is not an ideal form of government, our founding fathers knew this thus the reason federally, and in many states, we use the representative republic model, so far it has proven to be the best form of government.
 
 So again, unless the OP is a state senator or representative, you will not be introducing any state wide referendums any time soon. Sorry.
