  • CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020
    MCALVEY MERCHANT & ASSOCIATES CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020 CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE WEEK OF AUGUST 3, 2020 Integrity, Individual Attention. Precision Strategy. Proven Results RECORD-SETTING PRIMARY ELECTIONS A record number of voters participated in Michigan’s primary election on Aug. 4, with more than 2.5 million people casting a vote either in person or by absentee ballot. One of the most followed races in the primary was the 13th Congressional District rematch between U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit) and Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones. Jones represented the district for a few weeks in 2018, following the resignation of Rep. John Conyers (D-Detroit) in December 2017. After his resignation, there were two elections for the seat with Jones winning the special election to complete Conyers unexpired term, and Tlaib winning the regular race for the Congressional seat. This year, Tlaib and Jones were the only primary candidates. On Tuesday, Tlaib won the strongly Democratic district with nearly twice as many votes as Jones, potentially guaranteeing her a second term. In the 3rd Congressional District in West Michigan, Republican Peter Meijer, a U.S. Army veteran whose family founded the well-known Meijer retail chain, won a five-way contest with more than 50 percent of the vote, including holding a strong lead over his main opponent Rep. Lynn Afendoulis. Meijer will face Democratic attorney Hillary Scholten. The winner of that race will succeed U.S. Rep. Justin Amash, a former Republican turned Libertarian who is not seeking reelection. In the 10th Congressional District, a Republican stronghold in the Thumb region, Republican businesswoman Lisa McClain of Bruce Township, a pro-Trump Republican who outspent her opponents, beat state Rep.

  • July 9, 2021 the Honorable Dana Nessel Attorney General Michigan
    July 9, 2021 The Honorable Dana Nessel Attorney General Michigan Department Attorney General 525 W Ottawa St, Lansing, MI 48933 Madam Attorney General, A healthy republic depends on the public's trust, which legitimizes the authority of each and every public institution and official. For our Republic to run properly, the election of public officials must be trusted by voters. After the most recent presidential election, people in Michigan have lost trust and felt alienated by the irregularities of our voting process. Countless individuals have expressed their concerns in the aftermath of the 2020 General Election because they feel it is in the best interest of the state to investigate issues that have arisen, to prevent further issues in future elections. The Secretary of State created a system ripe for fraud by illegally relaxing the signature verification process and sending out absentee ballot applications unsolicited. It is because of these concerns, and many others, that a full, independent, and non-partisan forensic audit of the 2020 General Election is critical to the people of Michigan, to restore faith in the election process. We have found it concerning that your office has initiated an investigation into prosecuting individuals who, you seem to speculate, have profiteered by making statements about the accuracy and fairness of the election process in Michigan, which, you seem to speculate, were intentionally dishonest. A criminal investigation is a serious matter, only to be pursued on the basis of probable cause or at the very least, reasonable suspicion. By attempting to read the mind of an individual to infer criminal intention, you have effectively chilled the free speech of every citizen.
