Michigan Democrats accuse GOP candidates of using forged signatures to get on ballot

Michigan Democrats have formally accused Republican candidates for governor of submitting forged signatures to get on the state’s primary ballot.

In a trio of complaints filed this week, attorneys working with the state Democratic Party said they found problems with the nominating petitions filed by former Detroit police chief James Craig, businessman Perry Johnson and conservative commentator Tudor Dixon — enough to disqualify all three from the Aug. 2 primary, they argue.

Fraudulent signatures were the chief complaint for Craig's and Johnson's petitions, while a paperwork error was the focus of the Dixon complaint.

Ten Republicans have lined up for the chance to run against first-term Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in November.
