1. Well, here in Michigan
the Connerly people hired petition circulators,including minority persons, who didn't know what they were circulating. They lied to petition signers, calling the petition an 'equal rights' initiative.
Our courts eventually ruled that lying by petition circulators is legal. Signers still have the option of reading the petition whilst being lied to.

Bottom line: there's still a lot of bigotry. Connerly's spew sounds good to lots of people and it'll probably pass.
