Nearly half a million Michiganders enter vaccine lottery
WLNS ^ | 7/02/21 | Izzy Martin

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) - Within a day of Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s announcement of the MI Shot To Win Sweepstakes, approximately 464,698 people have applied for the chance to win $5 million, with 23,978 students having applied for the scholarship sweepstakes.

The sweepstakes began yesterday and will end on August 3, 2021.

This is an innovative way to encourage more Michiganders to get vaccinated, and I am delighted to see so much excitement for the kickoff of the MI Shot To Win Sweepstakes. We understand there are people out there who have questions, and maybe this will motivate them to seek the answers to their questions so they feel comfortable getting vaccinated.”

According to Whitmer, the goal of the sweepstakes is to increase the state’s vaccination rate by around 9%, or 667,000 Michigan residents - meeting the 70% statewide goal of residents aged 16 and up who are vaccinated.

“Innovative”

Yeah, giving away TAXPAYER MONEY is real innovative! What other innovations do they have up their sleeve?

I wouldn’t be surprised if she stays in the Governor’s mansion after Nov, 2022. I still see Trump flags everywhere kin the metro Detroit area, and all the Biden/Harris yardsigns came down, but a lot of people in this state seem to either have short memories, or are perpetually stuck on stupid.

Governor Heil Whitler is running a fraud with taxpayers' money.

Fraud? Absolutely. Does anyone really believe that the state would pick a winner that had died or was dying from adverse reactions to the experimental treatment?

Says a lot about the efficacy of the “vaccine” when you have to incentivize getting inoculated to misinformed or ignorant people. I’ll take my health, you can keep your poison experimental biological agent.

D’rats have so badly f’d up the beautiful state of Michigan, it makes one want to cry.

Teacher unions, automotive unions, blacks and single mothers combined brought it on.

I’m soooooo glad so many people are willing to end up like that poor girl in the wheelchair with the feeding tube up her nose for money. /sarc

How about each person making up his own mind whether or not to vax up without fear or favor?

Obvious Democrat Presidential material for 2024. The country needs a strong dictator, unflinching and ruthless, a match for Xi Jinping.

They are doing it in NC as well. I think it reflects poorly on us that such a cheap gimmick actually entices people to get the vax.

Funny you mentioned that, because there are a lot of reports that memory loss and absent-mindedness are side-effects of the vaccine.
