This is what the legislature does here. We vote for Medicaid, they strip it. We vote against anti-union legislation, they put it back on the ballot. We voted to keep the current state constitutional right to democratically amend the state constitution when they want to have full control over that apparatus and they want to ballot it again. We voted to protect abortion rights in the state last year. They are making us vote on it again this year. They patronisingly continue to tell us that we don’t know what we are voting for.
This is a gerrymandered autocracy.
Edit to add another one: we vote to keep income tax, they want to put it on the ballot again.

Oh we try both. As I said it is a gerrymandered autocracy. The state runs the St Louis Police department too.
