See here: [1]. I'd also settle for a neutral summary, but more than just "The initiative would add the right to collective bargaining for public and private sector employees to the state Constitution", which is all that source says. Doesn't anybody do this anymore ? All I get are dishonest ads from both sides.
I'd like to create an article on the proposal, if we don't already have one and we can find neutral sources. StuRat ( talk) 22:29, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
Something else I don't quite understand about the Michigan proposal process is that after a petition is certified as having enough signatures, the " Michigan Board of Canvassers" apparently must approve it for the ballot by majority vote. However, having 2 members of each party, deadlock is virtually assured there, so I'm surprised anything gets approved by them. There then seems to be a process of suing to get it on the ballot anyway. This process all seems bizarre and incomprehensible to me. Can anyone explain it ? StuRat ( talk) 23:13, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
