Getting measures on the ballot
Citizens
In Kentucky, citizens do not have the power to initiate statewide initiatives or referendums. Voters of Kentucky have never voted on a ballot measure to authorize a statewide initiative and referendum process.
Legislature
The Kentucky State Legislature can refer statewide ballot measures, in the form of constitutional amendments, to the general election ballot in even-numbered years. Kentucky requires a 60 percent vote in each legislative chamber during one legislative session to refer a constitutional amendment to the ballot. That amounts to a minimum of 60 votes in the Kentucky House of Representatives and 23 votes in the Kentucky State Senate, assuming no vacancies. Amendments do not require the governor's signature to be referred to the ballot.
