Proven Results LAWSUIT QUICKLY FOLLOWS BENSON’S ORDER TO BAN OPEN CARRY FIREARMS FROM POLLS Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s directive to local election clerks banning the open carry of firearms at or within 100 feet of polling precincts on Election Day has been quickly followed by a lawsuit challenging its legality by Thomas Lambert, Michigan Open Carry, Michigan Gun Owners and the Michigan Coalition for Responsible Gun Owners. The lawsuit has been placed on an expedited schedule by the Court of Claims and Judge Christopher Murray. Judge Murray has called for Benson to file a response brief to the lawsuit by 5 p.m. Monday, with oral arguments, if held, scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Tuesday. Benson’s directive said that the “open carry of a firearm is prohibited in a polling place, in any hallway used by voters to enter or exit, or within 100 feet of any entrance to a building in which a polling place is located." The ban does not apply to on-duty law enforcement. It also notes that concealed carry is prohibited in any buildings that already prohibit concealed carry unless the person is authorized by the building to concealed carry. In addition, the directive states that outside of the 100 feet of a polling place, clerk's office or absent voter counting board "if any person is acting in a way that would tend to intimidate, hinder or impede voters on the way to the polls, election inspectors should immediately contact law enforcement." Benson said that Attorney General Dana Nessel and Michigan State Police Col.
