students participated in the
2014 midterms. Initiatives like
the Big 10 Voting Challenge and
Turn Up Turnout have aimed to
mitigate voter turnout gaps in
hopes that more students will
vote in the upcoming election.
“I was a little worried after
the Kavanaugh hearings that
enthusiasm was going to die
out,” Lounds said. “So I’m
hoping this (event) will hype
people up, get everybody ready
and make these last 18 days
of (Get Out the Vote) and the
last 18 days before the election
count.”
The Whitmer rally began
with brief remarks from state
Rep. Yousef Rabhi and state
Sen. Rebekah Warren, as well
as candidates for the Board of
Regents Jordan Acker and Paul
Brown. Acker stressed the
importance
of
electing
progressive
Democrats
like Brown and himself to
the board.
“We have never had a
regent at this University
that has had student debt
before; we have never had
a regent that graduated
from college this century
on
the
board,”
Acker
said. “We can do so much
better.”
Dana Nessel and Jocelyn
Benson,
Democratic
nominees
for
attorney
general and secretary of
state respectively, each
received standing ovations
during
their
speeches
Friday night.
“The Republicans are
scared of me … they’re
labeling me ‘Dangerous
Dana,’” Nessel said. “I am
going to be dangerous to
the Trump administration.
I will be dangerous to
anybody who infringes
upon the rights and the
civil liberties of the people
who live here in the state
of Michigan.”
The
event
attracted
Michigan
Democrats
from
across the state, but they were
also met with protest from the
University’s chapter of College
Republicans who stood close to
the line of hopeful attendees,
along
with
members
from
Americans for Prosperity, a
conservative
organization
known for its ads attacking
Whitmer.
LSA junior Austin McIntosh,
communications chair for the
College Republicans, said the
group was protesting in support
for free speech, regardless of
ideology or political party.
“In my opinion, what we’re
trying to do is let people know
that there are other opinions
out there, whether it be from
the right or the left,” McIntosh
said. “All we’re trying to do on
campus is promote freedom of
speech.”
Dingell was next to take
the stage, where she spoke on
immigration reform and equal
rights for women.
“We cannot let (Republicans)
win, and democracy is under
attack,” Dingell said. “We need
everybody across the state to roll
up their sleeves, to volunteer …
let’s take America back to where
it’s supposed to be.”
GL A SS PUMPKIN FEST
Arnold Schwarzenegger, the
former actor and California
governor, spoke Friday at a rally
held in East Lansing to voice
his support for Proposal 2 and
thegroup Voters Not Politicians.
The
advocacy
coalition
endorses the creation of a
nonpartisan commission that
would redraw district lines.
Proposal 2 will appear on
the Nov. 6 Michigan midterm
ballot. If the proposal passes,
the Secretary of State will
oversee the selection of 13
commission members — four
Republicans, four Democrats,
and five independents or third-
party affiliated.
Schwarzenegger
said
the
issue of gerrymandering needs
to be fixed, commending the
work of Katie Fahey, founder of
Voters Not Politicians.
“It’s easy to complain, but
then to go up and say, ‘I’m going
to do something about it’ — that’s
what she did,” Schwarzenegger
said. “I’m so proud that all of
you are here today.”
California is the only state
to have a similar system to
the one Proposal 2 would
create if passed. As governor,
Schwarzenegger
backed
the
California
Citizens
Redistricting
Commission,
which was passed in November
2008.
Schwarzenegger
has
also
supported efforts in updating
the redistricting process in
Missouri, Colorado and Utah.
Actress Jennifer Lawrence
has also been an outspoken
advocate
for
Proposal
2.
Represent
Michigan,
the
state’s chapter of the national
group RepresentUs, released
a
video
with
Lawrence
endorsing the proposal this
week.
While addressing the crowd
at the rally, Schwarzenegger
encouraged
the
state
to
“terminate gerrymandering.”
