James Craig, a Republican Candidate for Michigan Governor, Will Sue to Regain Spot on Primary Ballot

On May 26, the Michigan State Board of Canvassers voted 2-2 to keep five Republican candidates for Governor off the August primary ballot. One of the candidates, James Craig, who had been considered a front-runner, then said he will sue to get back on the ballot. See this story. Statewide primary candidates in Michigan need 15,000 signatures. The five gubernatorial candidates who were removed all had petitions that appeared fraudulent just from their appearance, so no one actually checked the validity of each signature.

  1. If a minor party or independent candidate turned in so many forged petitions that they did not have enough valid signatures to qualify, they would not be on the ballot, so the heck with this guy.

    This is what you get when you hire trashing scummy people to runnand work on your petition drive.

  2. The loser crew at IPR all wished Andy Gonzalez a happy 70th birthday. Congratulations and good luck at the convention.

  3. The garbage comment on May 27, 2022 at 2:53 am is from Robert K Stock.

  4. Nah, I’m not Alden Stockfly. I’m just wondering if the mises caucus has Andy Gonzalez on their LNC candidate ticket this time. Last time the said that they left him off the ticket due to some kind of miscommunication. Asking that question does not make me a piece of shit devil worshipping commie who jacks off at work instead of cleaning the coffee pot.

  5. After decades of wandering in the wilderness the Moses Caucus are laying down the law and leading the party to the promised land, where they will unleash ruthless and total genocide on the Canaanites and take possession of all they do not destroy.
