Most Americans are familiar with the idea of indirect democracy, or representative democracy, where you vote for a candidate, such as a
president or a mayor, to represent you in the government. In that process, citizens participate by selecting candidates to support,
volunteering to campaign for candidates, communicating with elected officials about issues of interest, and sometimes even choosing to
become candidates themselves.

communities when the United States was a young nation. But direct democracy often falls apart with large populations. Parts of American
