California is just a weird, hokey state when it comes to judicial precedent. For the most part, aside from maybe community property precedent, it is ignored by the remainder of the country, although weird aspects do spin off from time to time.
It's not a violation of the federal process, but California has long been known for bastardizing the traditional plebescitic process. The Justices have long thumbed their noses at the State Constitution, long ago since Rose Bird did it.
