Suggest a few ways to reduce the number of initiatives on the ballot.

What will be an ideal response?

Require the legislature to vote on proposed laws first. After a public hearing on a measure, the legislature could vote on passing it, with or without any changes that the initiative's authors may approve or reject. Courts could be given a role in verifying that the legislature's version respects the authors' intent. Also, if a measure requires a supermajority vote of the legislature, require the same threshold for the ballot measure.
