Citizens' Advisory Healthcare Action Board Charter Amendment

Lansing city, Michigan

My vote power

High

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: High · 70 out of 100

This district is a small slice of its state, so each vote here carries much more weight than a vote in a statewide race. About 113,023 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 ÷ 113,023) ÷ ln(50,000) = 70.75, measured against a statewide vote in MI (grades: 66+ high, 55+ above average, 33+ average, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)

High representation + a direct vote on the policy → My vote power: High.

Ballot Measure

Supports: Healthcare Affordability

Lansing would create a citizens' board to study health care costs and access. The board would write a Lansing Healthcare Action Plan and recommend ways to carry it out, and the city would have to publish both.
