Michigan Voters Abolish Racial Preferences

Not to be lost among all the results from yesterday's election returns is the Michigan ballot issue that would "prohibit the University of Michigan and other state universities, the state, and all other state entities from discriminating against or granting preferential treatment based on race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin." That initiative won by a 58-42 vote of the people despite almost unanimous opposition from the powers that be in that state.

Here is today's coverage on the issue from the Detroit Free Press.
