Answer:

1.The process of amending a state constitution is the following:

Before describing it, it is important for you to know that each state of the U.S. has its own rules and procedures that administer the way its constitution should be amended.

These are some of the ways a state constitution can be amend:

It can be changed through judicial action. It happens when a federal court proclaim that some part of the constitution is unconstitutional under the U.S constitution.

Another way is going through a legislatively-referred constitutional amendment.

This method is only approved by 18 states and it is: by the way of an initiated constitutional amendment.

Only in Florida is allowed to amend the constitution through a commission-referred amendment process.

Only in Delaware can be possible to do it through direct action of the state legislature, and

Last it can be done by a constitutional convention.

 2. Initiative process: This process that allows all the citizens of a state pass over their local legislature and propose a constitutional or statute amendment. There are two types of initiative, direct and indirect.

  3. Referendum process: Permits citizens to vote on a law that had passed by the legislature to stop it from taking effect. There are two types of referendums, the legislative and the popular.
