1. Not trending D fast enough.
2. Need to add rules to the initiative/referendum system that require a 3/5 supermajority to amend the state constitution (probably need a constitutional convention to clean out all the previously added ones) and a balanced budget requirement for each initiative to avoid unfunded mandates and unfunded tax cuts
#1 is happening but man do we need #2. I can't tell you how annoying voters are when they vote for unfunded mandates like mandatory minimum sentences and unfunded tax cuts (property tax cap, spending/tax caps, tax cuts, etc) and then put these financial mandates straight into the constitution and complain to the state legislature about balancing the budget.
