In 2018 and 2022, voters in Michigan ratified ballot initiatives that would cement a permanent Democrat majority in place through election fraud. No Republican can ever hope to win the Michigan governorship or any statewide or presidential race in Michigan again with these laws in place.
Despite President Donald Trump’s victory in Michigan in 2016, he has no chance of winning there in 2024 with these new pro-fraud laws in place. There is still reason for hope, however, as Michigan Republican lawmakers are challenging these laws in the Supreme Court.
For those who don’t remember, these are the new Michigan laws that were enshrined by the voters in that state:
Same-day voter registration with no ID required.
Up to 29 days of in-person early voting.
Private funding of election administration (Zuckerbucks) allowed.
No-excuse absentee vote-by-mail.
You’ll notice that every single one of those laws, passed by Michigan voters, is designed to allow the Democrat Party to cheat and steal elections at whim. So long as those laws remain in place, Michigan will never again have a Republican US Senator or a Republican governor, and no Republican will be able to win the state’s 16 electoral votes, barring a landslide victory in which the votes are far beyond the margin of cheating.
We shouldn’t completely rule out a victory by Trump in 2024 at this point, after the way that Biden has shafted the auto industry workers in Michigan.
So, what can be done in this situation? The voters have spoken, and this is how they want to administer their elections in Michigan, right? Isn’t that how democracy works?
Yeah, that’s technically how democracy works. But it’s also a violation of the US Constitution.
This is one area of the Constitution, with all of its brilliant checks and balances, where state legislatures are supposed to have the final say. The Constitution in Article 1, Section 4, grants the power to the 50 individual state legislatures to set the times, places, and manner for the administration of federal elections.
The state legislatures are given plenary authority on this matter, meaning the ultimate or supreme authority. If a legislature passes a law saying that everyone in the state must cast their ballots by writing their votes on the side of a coconut with a Sharpie, then that’s the law. The Constitution doesn’t give the Supreme Court, the US Congress, the Department of Justice, or the King of Siam the authority to overturn that state’s election administration laws. It certainly doesn’t give the authority to write new election administration laws to the voters.
That’s why a group of 11 Republican Senators and Representatives from Michigan are suing to overturn the 2018 and 2022 election law changes. They argue that allowing the voters to change the laws via ballot initiative usurped the plenary authority of the state legislature to write and pass such laws. They’re suing Governor Crazy-Eyes Gretchen Whitmer, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and Jonathan Brater with the Bureau of Elections.
U.S. District Court Judge Jane Beckering, who is a Joe Biden appointee, dismissed their lawsuit on April 11, on the grounds that the state senators and representatives lack standing.
As one of the plaintiffs, Rep. Steve Carr (R), puts it, “If I, as a legislator, don’t have standing to say laws are being passed without legislature approval, then who does? The Elections Clause of the U.S. Constitution protects legislative authority to determine the times, places, and manner of elections.”
The lawmakers are vowing to appeal the case to the US Supreme Court before the 2024 election. This is exactly the sort of case that the Supreme Court loves to get down in the weeds with. The language of the Constitution is plain and simple to understand in this instance. Even though Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will do her best to pretend she doesn’t understand Article 1, Section 4, this is still likely to end up being another 9-0 decision.
That’s if the high court agrees to take up the case. Hopefully, they will, because this is a clear usurpation of the legislature’s power. If the court doesn’t take up the case and issue a ruling on it, we can still hope and pray for a landslide. Joe Biden has managed to infuriate Michigan’s Muslim population and the auto workers’ unions, so that is still possible as well.
How did these things even get on a ballot? Its clearly unconstitutional to by pass legislature.
How did this get on the ballot, being that it is clearly unconstitutional. Look, half the country believes a man, with his balls and stinger intact, can magically become a female, “just because”. They believe that he needs tampons for his menstrual period. And, don’t laugh, they say with 100% certainty, that a being with his stinger still attached, can fire off a baby. I love to ask where the baby emerges from, his anal orifice? Or does it shoot outta his dickeye?
When will ALL POLITICIANS behave as they should? I cannot believe what has happened in MY COUNTRY in these recent years! Politicians seem to care about what THEY want and not for the Country as a whole. It used to be majority rules, but these days, it seems to be the dollar rules, and that is not best for We the People or the fate of the Country.
Majority does rule if it’s constitutional read what they said only the state legislations can make laws concerning voting reason for that .
These ballot proposals must have been written in an ancient language for so many to let them pass or the people of Michigan are all communist wanting to destroy their state and country.
The voters in Michigan are not too smart and too many unwanted refugees,they are paid by their representative in the Democrat party.
