The Georgia State Legislature may place measures on the ballot as legislatively referred constitutional amendments, legislatively referred state statutes when the statute is concerning property tax exemptions, or advisory questions. Referred amendments and statutes require a two-thirds (66.67%) vote from each chamber during one legislative session, while advisory questions require a simple majority from each chamber. Additionally, statutes require the signature of the governor to appear on the ballot.
