The Democracy Principle
The Democracy Principle is a project of the State Democracy Research Initiative of the University of Wisconsin Law School. It highlights state constitutional provisions across the U.S. that contribute to this principle, prioritizing popular sovereignty, suffrage, government institutions, political equality, direct democracy, and constitutional change. Visitors can explore the site either by state or by democracy principle category – and searching by category also includes featured cases illustrating these principles.
