Answer:

A(n) referendum is an amendment that is presented to the people on the ballot of a statewide election to vote on.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initiative: "the right of citizens outside the legislature to originate legislation"

Referendum: "a general vote by the electorate on a single political question which has been referred to them for a direct decision"

Federalist system: "the constitutional division of power between U.S. state governments and the federal government of the United States"

Supremacy clause: "prohibits states from interfering with the federal government's exercise of its constitutional powers"

So, the best answer choice is B.
