Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder released six videos expressing his opinion on the six ballot proposals facing voters this fall.
And just like the Michigan Chamber of Commerce, Gov. Snyder is encouraging a "no" vote on all five proposed amendments to the Michigan Constitution. He is encouraging a "yes" vote on the referendum on the emergency manager law (Public Act 4).
From Snyder's press release:
“I respect the initiative process as a fundamental democratic right, but the proposed constitutional amendments in November’s election have potentially dangerous long-term consequences for Michigan,” Snyder said. “Enshrining these seriously flawed proposals within our constitution would roll back positive reforms that are helping reinvent our state, and I encourage citizens to view them with skepticism.”
You can listen to Gov. Snyder's reasoning in his YouTube videos below. By the time he gets to proposal six, his voice seems a little strained:http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=6mlJHXGdio8

*Correction - A previous post said Gov. Snyder is encouraging "no" votes on all six proposals. He is encouraging a "yes" vote on the referendum on the emergency manager law. The copy has been corrected above.
