Overturned and then upheld.
You know the drill...

I'd like to see it appealed but in the end it would be pointless because Conyers can easily win a write in campaign. His opponent is already treating Conyers as the winner.

I can't figure the judge's reasoning. It's a slam dunk that Conyers is ineligible.
Even a layman can read the law.
And the judge could have ruled correctly, and Conyers will STILL win.
Even as a write-in. ASSUMING Conyers' constituents can write.
And a big ASSumption that is.
So no upside, and plenty of tyranny going on.
Why the corrupt POS judge had to stick their snout into this I have NO idea.

The state should appeal if for no other reason, to establish what the law and the role of the SoS is in MI. I am sick to death of judges deciding they can just overturn every damn law they don’t like (especially votes of the public on things like “gay marriage” and immigration).

"Plaintiffs here have shown a substantial likelihood of success," he wrote, adding, "The States interest in combating election fraud is compelling, but the State may protect that interest through a less restrictive means."
Well you can't get much less restrictive than letting a fugitive felon collect signatures.

I worked for Ross Perot when he ran for POTUS in NJ. Funny how the courts required the petitions to be properly bounded, header sheet and all signatures must be valid. Oh one more thing, better file it on time. When one of the Perot supporters complained, one judge reminded him that if you want to be in the big leagues, follow the rules. LOL!!!!

His opponent
Horace Sheffield(same guy who challenged Conyers petitions) was charged in February with beating his wife. Doesn't that alone elevate the challenger's resume in the eyes of the average Detroit Democrat?
Wasn't getting an opponent thrown off the ballot the same way their hero BO got his start in politics?

The guy has been in congress for decades representing a district and can’t get local people to collect signatures? Talk about being out of touch.

conyers never had a problem obeying this law the last 24 times he ran for office.

This bank robber judge stealing representations needs to go to prison. He obviously is not interested in running the business of the country.

You really believe that? No one challenged him before; that’s not remotely the same as having obeyed the law.

This will turn into a race issue. Then it will snowball to the media

This is why I laugh my ass off at those people who lecture us that our vote still counts.
If anyone bothered to notice, the rule of Law is DEAD in this country and the voice of the People will be determined by the Ruling Class.
If the politicians and the judiciary refuse to follow the law and make up what the law is to benefit the Beast, why do people still cling to the silly notion that our votes will count and that we can somehow stop tyranny at the ballot box???

what i mean was he didn’t have a problem going through the motions and satisfying the law, until the law prevented him from being on the ballot. seems a tad hypocritical.
