   It's interesting that you bring up the recall of Gov. Witless, CS.

   It's amazing what gets buried, and later ignored in, what tries to pass itself off an a "non-partisan" media?

     KG, there's more to that legalese antic than meets the eye.

     Michigan Election Law requires the board of state canvassers to notify an officer who is being petitioned for recall at least three days prior to a hearing. But the notification didn’t come from Johnathan Brater, director of elections and secretary to the Board of State Canvassers. It was sent instead by Melissa Malerman, of the Secretary of State’s Bureau of Elections, whom Brater asked to make the notification.

     The board acknowledged that Brater has often asked staff to make such notifications on his behalf. But the governor’s counsel said it was an improper notification that would make Thursday’s hearing “procedurally defective

     Oh, hi there: https://www.michigan.gov/sos/0,4670,7-127--513201--,00.html

     Brennan Center voting rights attorney Jonathan Brater said that requiring documentary proof of citizenship like passports and birth certificates would hinder voter registration drives because most people don't have their passports and birth certificates on hand when they're approached with clipboards at farmer's markets and football games.

     Such a law would also be likely to suppress registration for low-income, non-white people who are less likely to have easy access to those documents, said Brater.

     Just more of Jocelyn Benson's, Soros funded bullshit games to steal elections and, stymie recalls deemed a threat to the Democrat-Socialist @MichiganDems.
