Here in Michigan there were 670,643 more votes cast for the State Supreme Court election than there was for the Presidential election.....

If true there is no way 670,000 people voted for MI Supreme Court and not president.

That makes absolutely no sense. I frequently leave the ‘judges’ part of the ballot blank (and I know a lot of people who do likewise), unless a judge has done something conspicuously bad (or good).
A link, please.
Impossible. Everyone votes for President, almost everyone for his Senator, Governor and Congressional Representatives. Who knows who is running for judgeships town councils, etc.
Someone should ask a Michigander about this, but I'm guessing this was because there were two seats open on the supreme court so people got to make two votes. This means there was actually a substantial undervote for the supreme court, which is what I would expect, since a lot of people don't care about it or don't know enough to make a useful choice.
