Key facts:
- Proposal 1 appears automatically on Michigan's ballot every 16 years under Article XII, Section 3 of the Michigan Constitution.
- A Yes vote begins a constitutional convention: 148 delegates (one per House and Senate district) with authority to draft a general revision of all 12 articles, no deadline, at an estimated taxpayer cost of nearly $80 million.
- A No vote keeps the current constitution and the existing voter-controlled amendment processes (citizen initiative petitions and two-thirds legislative referral); the question returns in 2042.
- Michigan voters have rejected the Con-Con question every time it has appeared — 1978, 1994, and 2010 (67% No).
- A bipartisan coalition of 57+ organizations — business, labor, faith, education, civil-liberties — recommends voting NO.
