So the Michigan Board of Canvassers is considering joining the interstate compact that would allow the winner of the national popular vote to be entitled to Michigan's electoral college votes, regardless of the will of the voters of Michigan.
Initiation of legislation to:
-
Declare Michigan’s public policy is that the one-person, one-vote principle requires that the candidate who receives the most votes nationwide should become president;
-
Enter Michigan into a national popular vote agreement, effective when adopted by states which combined have over half the electoral college votes for president, requiring each member state give its electoral college votes to the candidate getting the most votes nationwide;
-
Require the Michigan Secretary of State determine the national popular vote winner by adding vote totals in all states
-
Require Michigan’s electoral college voters be supporters of the national popular vote winner.
Patriots, you know what to do. Light up those phone lines, write letters, emails, etc. You want change? Make it happen from the ground up.
