James Craig Denied Ballot for Michigan Governor
June 2, 2022 at 10:21 am EDT By Taegan Goddard


“A judge declined to put a former Detroit police chief on the Republican ballot for Michigan governor, the third candidate to lose a court challenge after election staff said campaign petitions were marred by fraudulent signatures,” the AP reports.

“It’s a remarkable setback for James Craig (R), who has high name recognition in southeastern Michigan and retired as Detroit’s top cop last year to make his first run for office.”

These are the top 3 guys for the GOP, they're scrambling now on who to back.

Whitmer was going to beat whomever they put up, but those top 3 could have made it close.
