Michigan GOP worst nightmate..abortion and voting rights will be on ballot in November

https://www.bridgemi.com/michigan-government/supreme-court-clears-abortion-early-voting-proposals-michigan-ballot

Michigan voters will weigh separate constitutional amendments to guarantee abortion rights and allow early voting, after the Michigan Supreme Court ruled Thursday that both measures belong on the Nov. 8 ballot.

The rulings come one week after a deadlock on the bipartisan Board of State Canvassers blocked both initiatives. Two Republicans on the four-member board voted against the proposals, saying they had multiple defects.

I hope that voters don't think "good enough, I don't need to vote".

Let's get this amendment done anyway, just to cement the deal.

This will surely boost voter turnout, and if Republicans are as confident as they say they are that they're the voice of the majority of voters, they should win everything in sight. Unless, of course they aren't really the majority they claim to be. In which case they're in for a hiding in November.
