This article re-examines whether direct democracy mechanisms influence government fiscal behavior. The study builds on prior research by using a large sample of smaller U.S. cities, spending on specific policy areas, and an additional mechanism—the citizen advisory committee. These committees are included because they are prevalent in local government charters and are employed up front in the decision process. The results indicate that direct democracy mechanisms are either associated with higher spending levels or are not significant factors in spending decisions, indicating that local government fiscal behavior may be somewhat resistant to these types of institutional constraints.
