LANSING MI (WKZO AM/FM) – A Michigan judge has stated that state election officials cannot use a manual that outlines the rights and duties of election challengers and poll watchers.
Court of Claims Justice Brock Swartzle’s order said that the manual does not follow state election law.
The manual was developed after the controversy over the 2020 election.
The Michigan Republican Party and the Republican National Committee filed a lawsuit over the manual.
The order requires Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and Michigan Elections Director Jonathan Brater to remove the manual or revise it to fall in compliance with the law.
