The correct answer is E.) the ability of citizens to enact a law.

A referendum refers to when a state legislature proposes a new law to the citizens of a particular state. This law change is then voted on by the citizens of a state on a ballot. A simple majority in favor of the law will result in the law taking effect.

The use of referendum is an example of direct democracy. This is because the citizens of a state are voting on whether a proposed law will actually be implemented. This is a drastic change from having the state legislature decide for the citizens.
