Michigan Republicans and Democrats Agree on Election Overhaul

The Michigan legislature is halfway to implementing historic changes to voting access, including a brand-new early in-person voting system, requiring a ballot drop box in every city and township, and creating a single application for voters who want to vote absentee in every future election. Republicans are complaining of an expedited process and that the bills go beyond what the constitutional amendment requires. Lawmakers are aiming to pass the Prop 2 bills before the legislature leaves for summer break at the end of June.
