Michigan Proposal 2026-01: Constitutional Convention

Michigan

My vote power

Above average

Election date

November 3, 2026

How do we calculate my vote power?

What goes into the rating for ballot measures: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. You have more power in ballot measures because you vote directly on the policy.

Representation: Average · 50 out of 100

This district covers a large share of its state, so each vote carries about average weight — like a vote in a statewide race. About 10,077,761 people live here.

Show the representation math

score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(10,077,761 ÷ 10,077,761) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50, measured against a statewide vote in MI (grades: 66+ high, 55+ above average, 33+ average, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)

Average representation + a direct vote on the policy → My vote power: Above average.

Ballot Measure

Michigan would hold a convention in 2027 to rewrite the state constitution. Voters would elect the delegates, and any new constitution would go back to voters for approval before taking effect.
