Michigan clerks ask lawmakers for early voting, other changes ahead of 2022 elections

 

Michigan clerks called on lawmakers in a Monday letter to set aside partisanship and pass election law changes that would create an early voting option, boost funding for election officials and ensure election results are reported in a timely manner.

 

"As we face another major election year with insufficient funding, continued high volume of absentee voting, and increased scrutiny due to the 2020 cycle, we need our leadership to focus on problem-solving rather than political wins and losses," reads the letter from leaders of Michigan's county and municipal clerks associations.

 

"Now is the time for state leaders in the executive and legislative branches to set aside their agendas and come together to consider reasonable improvements that will benefit our voters."

I can see it now: another โ€œspikeโ€ in a new โ€œvariantโ€ just before the midterms leads to early & mail-in voting.

 

Go figure.
