Types of ballot measures in Michigan
From Ballotpedia
In Michigan, citizens have the power to initiate constitutional amendments, state statutes, and veto referendums. Statutes are indirect initiatives in Michigan, meaning that the state legislature has the option to approve an initiative without a vote of electors. Voters approved a constitutional amendment for initiative and referendum powers in 1908.
Michigan is one of 16 states that require a two-thirds vote in each legislative chamber during one legislative session to refer a constitutional amendment to the ballot. That amounts to a minimum of 74 votes in the Michigan House of Representatives and 26 votes in the Michigan Senate, assuming no vacancies. Amendments do not require the governor s signature to be referred to the ballot.
