Roots of State Gridlock Tied to 1961-62 Constitutional Convention | DomeMagazine.com

Roots of State Gridlock Tied to 1961-62 Constitutional Convention | DomeMagazine.com

Not much publicity on the convention vote this Fall. Our constitution gives the people of Michigan the right to decide every 16 years if they want to convene a constitutional convention to amend their constitution.

Not much on the merits in the debate right now because the focus has been on what it would cost--an estimated $28 million beginning to end. There is a lot to debate about the merits of a convention and the potential contents of a convention.

This is one of those articles that is now beginning to be published on the merits.
