Vote NO on Michigan Midterm Proposition1 to stop a Constitutional Convention from messing with women’s reproductive rights, voting rights, environmental protections and more. Vote NO on Prop 1 in the Michigan Midterm Election 2026. @votingaccessforall.bsky.social @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Voting early in the Midterm 2026 allows time to correct a ballot signature mismatch, postal delays (best to use your city’s drop box) and long waits on Nov 3. Make sure your registered, request a ballot and more at mi.gov/vote #voteearly #midterm2026 @votingaccessforall @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Without a valid ID, it’s hard for the formerly incarcerated to get an apartment, a job or medical help – making it easier for them to return to prison. SB 603 ensures they leave with a proper ID. Urge your Michigan senator to approve this empowering bill. #Indivisible.org #VAAC

It’s hard to rebuild your life after you’ve been incarcerated. Senate Bill 603 makes it easier by ensuring the incarcerated receive a valid ID before they’re released. A current ID is critical to getting a job, housing and more. Urge your state senator to approve this bill. #Indivisible.org #VAAC

People should be counted in the district they live in. SB 537 would count incarcerated people at their prison address, not their home address, allowing redistricting to weaken their community. Urge your Michigan senator to vote NO on this unfair bill. #Indivisible.org #VAAC

Senate Bill 537 wants to count incarcerated people in the district of their prison address, not their home address. It allows redistricting to weaken the power of their home community. Tell your state senator to vote NO on this misleading bill. #Indivisible.org #VAAC

The Congressional Black Caucus PAC endorsed Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, citing his efforts to take on corruption and make life more affordable. CBCPAC represents issues of black members of Congress. #VAAC#Indivisible.org tinyurl.com/3rsdsukjFor @notpoliticians.bsky.social

AI-powered trolls flood social media with personal attacks and deepfakes. They intimidate, harass and misrepresent the truth to shut us up. Don’t engage with personal attacks or ugly comments; it only helps them spread. Lies die in a vacuum. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

It’s often a kneejerk reaction to share something that validates our beliefs. Stop and ask, Do I believe this because I want to? How credible is the source? Are other credible sources talking about this? People share disinformation more than bots do. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Don’t rely on weird hands or shadows to identify fake imagery – AI’s come a long way. Check a photo or video with reverse image search tools like TinEye.com, Yandex.com or Google Image Search. They reveal an original image to see if it was manipulated. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

New laws in Michigan and a few other states require AI deepfakes to include disclaimer labels on some synthetic election content. They’ll say something like “This [image, video or audio] has been manipulated.” Too bad every lie doesn’t require one. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Be cautious if you type a question in search. AI Overviews use AI bots that aggregate information from unverified sources. Either start with reputable channels or use fact-verifying sources like Snopes.com or FactCheck.org. Bots can be idiots. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Outrageous claims are often designed to provoke anger, panic and an urgency to spread content. “Click bait” headlines make bold claims but rarely offer proof. Eliminate the emotion and look for rational sources that account for what they claim. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

It’s tempting to blindly believe political stories or claims that align with your own political beliefs. Challenge this “confirmation bias” by examining what you’re seeing and remove any blind spots that may be clouding your belief in its accuracy. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Indivisible Metro Detroit @indivisiblemetrod.bsky.social · 29/08/2026
You can cross-check questionable claims with dedicated fact-checking organizations like Snopes.com or FactCheck.org. Google Fact Check searches various fact-checking sites to verify claims. Or you can check with official state sites like mi.gov/vote. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Indivisible Metro Detroit @indivisiblemetrod.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
Not sure if what you’re seeing is fact or fake? Check out other credible sources. If multiple channels are making similar claims (and ideally offering some verification), it’s likely that what you’re reading is the truth. There’s credibility in numbers. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

Indivisible Metro Detroit @indivisiblemetrod.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
Be critical of sources you don’t know. For accurate voting information, use official websites like mi.gov/vote and National Association of Secretaries of State. Or check facts at Snopes.com or FactCheck.org. If something smells fishy, it probably is. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

One of the largest efforts to control political spending is likely to be on the November ballot. Michigan Money Out of Politics bans companies with over $250,000 in annual state government contracts, as well as regulated utilities, from spending in Michigan elections. tinyurl.com/8jkfuaf9

President Trump was so sure mail-in votes in the Michigan Primary were fraudulent, he predicted they’d push senate candidate Haley Stevens far into the lead. Er, Abdul El-Sayed won. MAGA-led misinformation is heating up as we move toward the November midterms. tinyurl.com/yc4r84cn
