Modern Whig Party Says it Will Try to Qualify in Michigan

Posted on September 23, 2015 by Richard Winger

On September 21, the Modern Whig Party informed Michigan’s Secretary of State that it is about to start collecting signatures on a petition to be on the 2016 ballot. Michigan lets petitioning groups set their own petitioning period, but the job must be done in six months. So now the Modern Whig Party must collect 31,519 signatures by March 18, 2016. Thanks to John Wilhelm for this news.

That’s a big number for a tiny party. Will they be hiring professional petitioners?

The 6 months limit is of course totally arbitrary by the statist hacks in the Mich legislature.

Mercenary petitioners I believe the term is for those who carry the Whig petition without being card carrying Whigs themselves. I believe both Whigs will be elsewhere during the petitioning period.
