In 2018 a ballot proposal took redistricting away from the legislature and appointed a commission with 4 Rs, 4 Ds and 1 independent (I do not know how someone proves they are independent). They redistricted after 2020 census. On Tuesday the Ds took both houses handily.
I don't think people are using the power of ballot proposals anywhere near what they should be doing.

Totally varies state by state. There's way too much of it in California. ETA As RT said. Every election we get to vote on whether to make it impossible to run a dialysis clinic, and this time we had two internet gambling measures to reject, so there'll probably be more of that.
