With only 33 more days till our Nov. 6th election, it is time to familiarize ourselves with our long and complex ballot. We will be voting for President, Congressmen and Senators (both nationally and locally), State board of Ed, University (regents, trustees and governors), County positions (execs, prosecuting attorneys, sheriffs, clerks, treasurers, commissioners: including the “drain” or now known as “water resource”), plus our non-partisan judges and not to mention our 6 Michigan proposals. And each State has their own long list of important decisions needing our votes. So, if you live in Michigan, please visit this public ballot viewing site: https://webapps.sos.state.mi.us/mivote/SelectPublicBallot.aspx
You’ll need to fill in your county, city and precinct and up will pop your ballot.
To get started for Michigan voters, here are our 6 proposals:
1. Emergency Manager Law
2. Collective Bargaining Constitutional Amendment
3. Renewable Energy: 25% by 2025 – I’m voting YES
4. In-Home Care Workers Collective Bargaining and Council
5. Limit new taxes by State Government
6. International Bridge – Please vote NO on this Matty Moroun sponsored proposal
If anyone has any insight into these props., please let me know. Thanks.
