Dear Precinct Delegates Voters of MI,
We have an opportunity in front of us to reverse Prop 2’s devastating effects on our future elections. In 2022 voters passed Prop 2, which legalized Zuckerberg money, gave us 9 days of early voting, allows anyone to vote without voter I.D, and does not require video cameras on ballot drop boxes. Michigan Fair Elections (MFE), an incredible organization whose goal is to support fair and free elections in Michigan, is dedicated to eradicating Prop 2 from our state constitution.
Last fall MFE filed a lawsuit initiated by eight Republican legislators in our state. The Legislative Usurpation lawsuit argues that our U. S. Constitution, and our own State Constitution, places the authority over election law squarely with the state legislators. Our legislators alone are the ones who determine the time, place and manner of our elections. In other words, the Secretary of State does not have that authority nor do the citizens of Michigan by passing a ballot initiative, as our state did in 2018 and again in 2022, to change election law.
Michigan is presently awaiting a decision at the federal court level and no matter who wins or loses, there will be an appeal. If we do not act quickly, and proceed with the effort, there can be national consequences. The left is now trying this scam in other battleground states in time for the 2024 election!
Success of this lawsuit would remove 2022’s Prop 2 and Promote the Vote’s Prop 3 (2018 allowing anyone to vote absente) out of our state constitution so in the future Michigan CAN enact fair election laws.
Unfortunately, Democrat majorities in the House and Senate have passed Prop 2 amendments into Michigan law. We however must take this opportunity to position our state to reinstill fair election laws when conservatives take back the reins of government. Success also would set precedence to stop this deceptive unconstitutional procedure from being used in other critical states for 2024.
I know you get millions of requests for donations, but unless we overturn Prop 2, nothing else matters. Ripping this out of our state constitution is the best chance we have of leveling the playing field of election integrity and this lawsuit has a real chance!
However, there is an urgent need for additional funds to help pay some of the legal cost.
In Michigan, Progressive organizations spent $45,000,000 to pass Prop 2.
We are trying to raise $50,000 to condemn it to the trash bin of corrupt initiatives pushed by the left.
The team of incredible attorneys working on this case tell us the federal courts are signaling that they are interested in hearing a case like this, so the time is now to act and get this to the US Supreme Court!
I hope I have explained the critical need for this lawsuit to go forward in an expedited way. My goal to help raise the $50,000 needed is to find:
- 8 – $1,000 donors
- 300 – $100 donors (the cost of two people going out to dinner!)
- 200 – $50 donors (a trip to McDonalds for a family of 4!)
I ask for your help to overturn these disastrous amendments illegally added to our state Constitution. Please go to MiFairElections.org and click the DONATE button, or mail checks to MFE, P.O. Box 41, Stockbridge, MI 49285.
