The real unity message is that everyone has a role. Ours just happens to include every snack and every voter.

Asked about being a unifier on a Dem ticket that will, for many Michiganders, contain as many progressives as moderates, Benson said it’s a focus but Dems “are all talking about the same things … reduce costs, grow our economy, increase wages, protect rights & fight corruption.”

[Lily Catherine Guiney @LilyCGuiney]

Whitmer is endorsing Benson. “They say no one works harder than a mom with a list,” Whitmer says of Benson. “Well, Jocelyn’s got a list, and I know she’ll start checking things off on day one.”

3 months ago, Detroit Regional Chamber polling showed a three-way dead heat in the governor's race. Now Democrat Jocelyn Benson leads the hypothetical matchup (34.2%), Republican John James is in second (29.2%) and independent Mike Duggan has slipped to third (23%). #migov

This is a bit misleading — in 2019, the ruling in Graveline v. Benson reduced the number of required sigs for non-affiliated candidates to 12,000. In current guidance from the Bureau of Elections on filing requirements, it specifies that the Graveline ruling replaced the MCL.
