Michigan Supreme Court ruled that the Michigan Board of Canvassers must certify the petition presented to the board by the left-wing group, Promote The Vote (PTV), "as sufficient for placement on the November 8 general election ballot." The Democrat-aligned groups involved with Promote the Vote's ballot initiative include ACLU Michigan and The League of Women Voters Michigan.
The only challenge to the petition was that it failed to include all the constitutional provisions that would be abrogated by the proposed amendments," the court ruled.
- The ruling affirming the measure was comprised of the court's four Democrat-appointed justices and one Republican-appointed justice, with the remaining two Republicans dissenting.
If Michigan voters pass the initiative this fall, the proposed constitutional amendment would completely overhaul the state's election laws
- Among the changes are requiring state-funded "absentee ballot drop boxes" and "postage for applications and ballots," allowing for private "donations to fund elections," and providing voters with a "right" to fill out a single absentee ballot application "to vote absentee in all [future] elections."
