Abortion Amendment WILL Appear on Michigan Ballots After MI Supreme Court Hands Down Scathing Ruling
In a 5–2 decision, the Michigan Supreme Court has ruled that a massively popular abortion referendum will appear on November ballots after an elections board tried to block it.
The measure would amend the state constitution to explicitly protect access to abortion. The petition to get the amendment on the ballot received a historic number of signatures in support, but the Board of Canvassers took issue with some minuscule typos in the text, where it appeared there were some missing or compressed spaces between some words. They claimed those spacing issues made the text “gibberish” and that it was “unreadable.”
That was very clearly not the case, as anyone could see from screenshots of the text. And the state Supreme Court agreed and ordered the board to certify the proposed amendment.
Chief Justice Bridget McCormack’s displeasure with the board’s transparent attempt to disenfranchise voters came across clear in her decision.
