Explain why the New England town meeting is an example of direct democracy.

Town meeting is a form of local government practiced in the U.S. region of New England since colonial times and in some western states since at least the late 19th century.[1] Typically conducted by New England towns, town meetings can also refer to meetings of other governmental bodies, such as school districts or water districts. While the uses and laws vary from state to state, the general form is for residents of the town or school district to gather once a year and act as a legislative body, voting on operating budgets, laws, and other matters for the community's operation over the following 12 months.In 1854, Henry David Thoreau said, in a speech entitled "Slavery in Massachusetts": When, in some obscure country town, the farmers come together to a special town-meeting, to express their opinion on some subject which is vexing the land, that, I think, is the true Congress, and the most respectable one that is ever assembled in the United States. The painting Freedom of Speech depicts a scene from a town meeting. Its usage in the English language can also cause confusion, since it is both an event, as in "Freetown had its town meeting last Tuesday", and an entity, as in "Last Tuesday, Town Meeting decided to repave Howland Road."In modern times, "town meeting" has also been used by political groups and political candidates as a label for a moderated discussion groups in which a large audience is invited. To avoid confusion, this sort of event is often called a "town hall meeting."
