Related: About this forumRick Snyder Recall 3.0: The People Have Likely Been Hookwinked Before It Starts
"The initial excitement was huge.
Mainstream Media Resources and Bloggers Across the Nation Were Happy As Pleased Delicious Happy Pie, Michigan's Embattled Governor Rick Snyder Would Face a Recall Effort In 2016.
Especially After The Unbelievable Mess And Tragic Situation in Flint, Michigan A Real Recall Effort Would Be The Least Governor Rick Snyder Deserves, Right?
Unless, It Was All A Twisted Public Relations, Trick.
We'll be first to admit or fall upon the sword of Bamboozled, as we at Independent Underground News & Talk were fooled too initially.
In the past year there have been at numerous efforts to have petition language approved against the Governor.
Detroit, Michigan Pastor Angelo Scott Brown put a total of four recall efforts before the Board of State Canvassers over the Flint Water Crisis in 2015. Three of the four were rejected by the Board mysteriously and one was withdrawn.
Another effort took place on January 28, and this is what happened when Flint, Michigan resident Quincy Murphy filed a petition. When filing the petition, Quincy cited he desired to recall Snyder for "Failing to protect the health and safety of the citizens of Flint, which has resulted in a state of emergency for Genesee County due to toxic lead levels in the drinking water."
However, Quincy's effort was in vain just like Pastor Brown's attempts prior.
As Governor Rick Snyder's Attorney John Pinch told the Michigan Board of Canvassers and they believed - even after Snyder's December 29, 2015, "apology" for Flint's Water Crisis, that - Murphy petition did not meet the legal standard because it "consists of Mr. Murphy's unsubstantiated opinions and conclusions."
Yet on February 8, one man's petition out of nine other attempts the same day, was approved. Now, first it is important to note that Governor Rick Snyder appoints all the officials on the Board of Canvassers. The board's make up is supposedly two Democrats and two Republicans.
However, reviewing whose petition for Recalling Rick Snyder the two-two political party split the Board approved, led astray might best describe the history of Republican Tea-Party Favored Son out of Macomb County, Ben Larazus."

(5,420 posts)1. Shouldn't be recalled.
I would think that being in prison should automatically vacate his job.

Agree. Rick Snyder should go to Prison!

(10,429 posts)3. As much as I would love to see Snyder gone...
He would be replaced by someone far worse....
Brian Calley. The Lieutenant Governor.
We in Michigan have to be very careful what we ask for.
Damned if we do...damned if we don't.

(23,651 posts)5. So if Snyder is recalled, Calley will run as a partial-term incumbent
With the advantage of being an incumbent, he might serve the remainder of Snyder's term, plus two terms on his own, before he's term-limited
Yikes.
Yeah, maybe we stick with Snyder, let his second term run out, so a Dem can run from an equal starting point.
