Proposal 2 Vote YES to end gerrymandering in Michigan.
Partisan redistricting, also known as gerrymandering, occurs when politicians draw voting map lines unfairly to benefit themselves or their political party. Under this proposal:
  • Political districts would be drawn by a citizen's commission instead of politicians
  • Redistricting would be open to the public rather than done secretly
  • Federal laws would be followed regarding minority representation
  • Federal laws would be followed regarding equal population representation
  • Politicians would be more accountable to citizens
Proposal 3 Vote YES  to create fair rules that remove barriers to voting and make voting more secure.
This proposal would:
  • Protect the right to vote a secret ballot
  • Ensure military service members and overseas voters get their ballots in time for their votes to count
  • Provide voters with the option to vote straight party
  • Automatically register citizens to vote at the Secretary of State’s office unless the citizen declines
  • Allow a citizen to register to vote anytime with proof of residency
  • Provide all registered voters access to an absentee ballot for any reason
  • Ensure the accuracy and integrity of elections by auditing election results.
