Texas ballot measures come in just one of the six common varieties:
- Legislatively-referred constitutional amendment - a proposed constitutional amendment that appears on Texas' ballot as a ballot measure because the Texas State Legislature voted to put it before the voters. In order for a proposed constitutional amendment to be placed on the ballot, the Texas State Legislature must propose the amendment in a joint resolution of both the Texas State Senate and the Texas House of Representatives. The joint resolution can originate in either the House or the Senate. The resolution must be adopted by a vote of at least two-thirds of the membership of each house of the legislature. That amounts to a minimum of 100 votes in the House of Representatives and 21 votes in the Senate.
