If the will of the people changes, they can pass another ballot initiative that repeals or amends the first one, using exactly the same process, with a simple majority vote.
The reason California ends up stuck with some decisions for decades is that a majority of voters continue to like them or don't care enough to vote to change it.
- asveikau 5y agoIf it stands simply because nobody cares, can it really be said to be the will of the people? At best, it can be said to be the will at a moment in time now passed. But then there are the other issues I mentioned: many voters do not understand the propositions, many do not turn out to vote, etc. So I would even doubt that it's a valid capture at a moment in time.
