Michigan isn't on this list. We have 10 days early voting, absentee voting, and an independent redistricting committee. All due to ballot initiatives. Reps took control in January, and the first thing they did was file a lawsuit against all of those. They say the ballot initiatives are unconstitutional because state legislatures have sole responsibility for voting regulations.
