Tuesday's election saw significant laws and regulations passed on the state level through various ballot measures.

Here are some of the major initiatives from this year's election.

Immigration, voting rights

It is already against the law for those in the country illegally to register to vote and cast a ballot in federal and state elections.

However, some states proposed ballot measures that would make it illegal for undocumented immigrants to vote on the state or local level.

Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Wisconsin voters all passed measures enacting such a ban.

Arizona voters passed a measure that changed immigration laws to give local officers the power to arrest migrants in the country illegally and for state judges to deport them.

Ranked choice voting

Voters in the District of Columbia approved a ballot measure that would change local elections to a ranked choice voting method, in which voters rank candidates on the ballot and the candidate with the most No. 1 rankings wins.

Voters in Nevada, South Dakota, Missouri and Oregon rejected changing to ranked choice. While Colorado was still counting votes, over 1.2 million voters -- 54% of the total as Wednesday afternoon -- voted no on an ranked choice ballot measure for their elections.

Idaho voters rejected a ballot measure that would have overturned a 2023 state law that banned ranked choice voting for general elections.

Other initiatives

Voters in Nevada also passed a measure that mandated a voter ID requirement at elections.

South Dakota, North Dakota and Florida voters rejected measures that would have legalized recreational marijuana for adults.
