With the new elections coming up in 2020 if Shutte gets in office does anyone think it might go in front of him / be re-introduced ? Just want to see what we the people are feeling and thinking /

One can hope.
My only concern is that if we get constitutional carry, there are still a lot of TERRIBLE laws on the books. You'll have jurisdictions like wayne county throwing the book at people for something as simple as having a jacket come close to an OC gun, relying on the cops saying it was illegally concealed, and doing everything they can to suppress body/dash cam evidence that would show they're full of crap.
I mean... that's what they're doing already, why would they stop when they can just keep attacking people and having them plea to felonies and give up guns as long as they only get probation?

The same people that passed it in the House of Representatives will still be there after the election, for the most part. The same people that stymied things in the Senate will be gone, for the most part. Schuette isn't Rick Snyder, so we have THAT going for us.
If it can get through the legislature, I think he would sign it.
I really think Whitmer has this.

go look at our voting history. MI hadn't put a republican president in office since 1984.
And until this year, a grassroots black man getting on the republican senate ticket would have been ... unexpected
i dunno, i'm not disagreeing , just saying that history is history, not now.

If Whitmer wins, any chance of getting everyone in Lansing off their collective asses and passing some pro gun lame duck action?
That's what I just said. Anything is possible, but that last time this state had two governors from the same party in a row was in the 60's with Romney/Milliken. That's about 15-20 years before we last went red for Reagan and it's 49 years running. Add to that the Pension Tax and Right to Work and I don't see Schuette, (who is a terrible public speaker, BTW) has a chance.
