I figured I'd just start a thread on ballot measures since there will be a bunch - voter disenfranchisement in Florida, Medicaid expansion in Nebraska, Utah, Idaho, and Montana.

Michigan Supreme Court says let voters decide gerrymandering proposal
A proposal to create a bipartisan commission to draw Michigan's political lines — intended to stop political gerrymandering — will appear on the Nov. 6 ballot, the Michigan Supreme Court ruled late Tuesday.
The ruling was a major victory to the Voters Not Politicians group, which had gathered more than 400,000 signatures in an effort to put the proposal on the ballot. The proposal would shift the responsibility for drawing district lines from the party in control of the Legislature to a 13-member bipartisan commission.
