California hardly has any limits, but one of the few is that an

Constitutional amendments are the only propositions in Kentucky where citizen
approval is required. We do not have the mechanism for ballot initiatives;
neither do we have a recall mechanism. Speaking of that, what's Gray Davis up to
these days?
