From the supplier: Critics of direct democracy claim that direct democracy contradicts the principles of representative government, sacrifices public interest to narrow-interest groups and is biased towards positions that are supported by heavy political advertising. In contrast, advocates of direct democracy believe that it has had many good effects, such as the adoption of the 17th and 19th amendments. Moreover, they believe that direct democracy could work in the US because Americans tend to vote against radical, uncertain or unclear initiatives.
