House Roll Call 101: The substitute was adopted

To replace the previous version of the bill with one which would prohibit a presidential candidate's name from appearing on the November general election ballot unless it had also appeared on the Michigan primary ballot earlier in the year, beginning in 2008. The bill would require Democrats to hold a presidential primary in 2008. Michigan Democrats now choose their presidential candidate in closed party caucus meetings.
