Michigan House Passes Bill Disallowing...
http://wlns.com/2017/04/28/house-passes-...n-ballots/
Michigan house passes bill disallowing party names and logos on ballots.
"Names and logos of political parties no longer would be allowed on election ballots under two bills approved by Michigan’s state House.
The legislation passed Thursday in Lansing and now heads to the GOP-controlled state Senate.
Opponents of the current bills say party logos are necessary to help some voters identify the political parties of candidates appearing on election ballots."
Those opponents don't want the voters to actually have to research the candidates apparently, leading to negligent voting based on team politics.

Dear DexterDevil,
Just another attempt by republicans to make it more difficult to vote. So what if someone votes democrat or republican based on party affiliation. Many voters like what their party stands for, or their platform in upcoming elections.
