Context text
bipartisan Board of Canvassers. It was a workgroup chaired by the Democratic chair and the Republican vice chair. Two Democrats and two Republicans on the state Board of Canvassers came to testify in support of this bill. The whole genesis of this were the Republican candidates for Governor getting defrauded during the petition process, and these were the recommendations that came to the Legislature from the Board of Canvassers to strengthen our law to make sure those situations don’t happen again. I can’t think of a more democratic process than that and for the Legislature to take up these bills. I urge a “yes” vote. The following bill was read a third time: House Bill No. 5572, entitled A bill to amend 1954 PA 116, entitled “Michigan election law,” by amending section 552 (MCL 168.552), as amended by 2005 PA 71.
