I'm thrilled to see students taking the vote so seriously, but there is no reason at all that it should be this difficult to cast a ballot.

In Ann Arbor, the last person in line voted at 2:05 am. She waited 6 hours to cast her ballot.

2. Now that MI is Blue from the top down, perhaps this nonsense will stop!

3. MSU also had long lines.

Pretty encouraging, but I totally echo Kruse's sentiments.

4. THIS IS THE GOOD NEWS-

THAT SINCE THE DEMOCRATS ARE TAKING THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE IN MICHIGAN- we can pass additional laws making voting easier. the GOP just spent 40 years making it more difficult.

the passage of Proposal 1 also means "in person advance voting", something we have not done before.


This bodes very good for future elections.


VOTING MATTERS.

5. Wow!

6. Turnout was over 60%

Was higher than 2018 when people were voting their disgust with the then president and 58% of voters turned out.

When we show up to vote, we win big.
