According to John Nichols in the latest issue of the New Republic (May 21, 2012) over 200,000 voters signed a petition to force a referendum on a Michigan “emergency manager law” that allows unelected “managers” to bypass collective bargaining and restructure union contracts in public schools.
In April the Republicans on the Board of State Canvassers blocked the petition. They said the font size on the petition was too small.
Check out the First Amendment on petitioning the government. You won’t find a single word about font size. I looked.
