To: where's_the_Outrage?

I’m skeptical, just received my absentee ballot and intend to mail it in today. I would appreciate any feedback regarding the viability/desirability of this proposal. At the moment, I’m leaning no, but just because I’m satisfied with who is now in the MI state legislature.

Here is a list of Proposals and pending: https://www.michigan.gov/documents/sos/Bal_Prop_Status_560960_7.pdf

Blatant attempts of Government intervention and takeovers. The only one on the list that looks conservative is to make the legislature part time. To quote:

“No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session.”

I am voting no. I have hard time believing 5 folks who don’t identify with a party will not be DEMS or Rino’s. I don’t trust that folks will not be paid off to make decision’s on how the lines are drawn.

Then they want a fund set up for this commission and I can see this growing into nothing but a cash hog taking money from other things needed in Michigan.

I hope you’ll lean to “HELL, NO!” before you mark up your absentee ballot and mail it in.

Here's all I need to know:

• Require an appropriation of funds for commission operations and commissioner compensation.

NO

David Commie Bonior was my 10th district Congressman for many years until 2002 when he decided to run for Governor. Two things happened that year, the 10th district was redrawn and Candice Miller ran for Governor and was elected.

While I can't swear to it, I suspect Bonior knew that with the new boundary lines drawn, he lost a large voting block in Mt. Clemens, Clinton Twp., St. Clair Shores, Fraser and Roseville that kept him in office all those years and he wouldn't have stood a chance against Miller......

And for what it's worth, Candice Miller has been one hell of a fine representative of my county in every position she has ever held. She would make a great Governor for this state.......

And Selfridge ANG base owes her a great debt of gratitude........

we elect representatives to do a job. part of that job is to draw district lines. when pubs are in power, the lines are drawn according to what the pubs ( people ) want. this is an end around to take away our rights to elect representatives to do a job we elect them to do...
