Missed this back in july when it happened... and the Supreme court (or some... guess who most likely) decided not to hear the case.

"In July, Judge Gershwin A. Drain of Federal District Court in Detroit temporarily blocked the law, finding that it imposed “a disproportionate burden on African-Americans’ right to vote.”
So... not picking individual candidates based on their merits... is a burden for black people. Apparently.. according to this Judge... Black people are not smart enough to pick the people they like.. and instead pick just one party for everything.
and this gem...
“The state has presented nothing apart from vague speculation,” she added, “that suggests that a voter will make a more informed choice in filling in each individual bubble rather than choosing to fill in one bubble for a straight party vote.”
So yeah... just voting all ... Dem.. (I mean come on) is MUCH more informed then picking people. Who cares if... lets say.. one of the congressional candidates was a rapist... or strangled a tranny hooker in a hotel room... it's better to pick all the same party then individual people.
“Michigan has joined 40 other states by requiring voters to actually vote for each candidate they intend to support — in other words, by eliminating straight-ticket voting,” the brief said. “This change is not a burden on voting — it is the very act of voting.”
Apparently 40 states in the country BURDEN Black people in their voting.. This is HORRIBLE. They should have to change it immediately... Oh wait... I forgot..
This is just a Dem way to ensure they get as many cotes as possible.
