Michigan townships set caucus rules for party nominating
In Michigan townships, caucuses to choose party nominees must occur by March 10. The process requires a 2 to 3 member township committee, a caucus call, and posting notices. Plurality nominating applies. two party tickets trigger the new caucus system, while single tickets may avoid it. Local liquor permits stay under township control with revenue largely returning locally.
