Election Law Change Likely From State Controversy
The dispute over the next Secretary of State election could overhaul Michigan election law and perhaps require constitutional amendments. A special session began December 10 with projected costs from ten thousand to twenty thousand dollars, potentially rising to two hundred thousand if a recount is ordered.
