Bad news for Michigan elections this fall. Michigan Supreme Court, by 4-3 vote, refuses to hear case seeking postmark deadline for counting absentee ballots.
Justice Bernstein& #39;s dissent, joined by Chief Justice McCormack and Justice Cavanagh, is outstanding.
More from Justice Bernstein& #39;s dissent.
I& #39;m sure there will be more litigation on this issue, but the takeaway is this: Michiganders need to request their absentee ballots as early as possible, and then return them as early as possible directly to their clerk& #39;s office. Don& #39;t rely on the mail.
