Good day all. Wretched Gretchen Whitmer, govno of Michigan and one of the worst governors in the United States is, like many of her Democratic CommuNazi compatriots in other states, facing a petition drive to recall and remove her from office.
In Kalifornistan, the petition drive succeeded and a recall election against Gruesome Gavin Newsom is being scheduled. In other states where a recall is available, there are petition drives ongoing with varying degrees of success. In Michigan, the petitions are gathering steam and Wretched Gretchen has been doing everything she can to suppress them, including going to her pet judges. Her last, desperate attempt appears to have failed. Here are the details from Breitbart:
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) failed to stop a series of recall petitions filed against her after the state Board of Canvassers approved them. Whitmer appealed the approval of seven petitions against her and Lieutenant Gov. Garlin Gilchrist (D), and last week, an appeals court rejected all of her arguments.
According to Michigan law, the Canvassers judge a petition’s language and presentation for clarity and factual accuracy. One petition, filed by James Makowski, stated the governor should be recalled because “Gretchen Whitmer issued Executive Order 2020–143 on July 1, 2020 closing indoor service at bars.”
That sounds pretty straight forward. Wretched Gretchen shut down bars and restaurants because she’s a petty little tyrant. However, Wretched Gretchen decided that the word “Bar” was not clear.
Whitmer argued “bars” was an ambiguous and undefined term. But the court noted the petition used precisely the same language as Whitmer’s executive order: Its subtitle was “Closing indoor service at bars.” More:
The Governor maintains that where “electors are left to guess at [the] type of ‘bar’ the [p]etition refers to, the [p]etition lack[s] sufficient clarity and is noncompliant with the Michigan Election Law.” We reject this argument. Any person invited to sign the petition would very likely envision a reference to a conventional tavern, where people can purchase and consume alcoholic beverages, when faced with the wording, “closing indoor service at bars.” This is particularly so when the word is taken in context, used as it is in connection with the related terms “nightclubs” and “restaurants,” strongly suggesting that the term “bars” refers to an establishment, like a nightclub and like many restaurants, that serves alcoholic beverages.
In another case, Wretched Gretchen argued that the petition should be rejected because the only information was her name and her title, (Technically Governor, but liar, Tyrant and Queen Bitch all would apply, in my opinion).
The Governor argues that where she was only identified by name and title in the petition form where it called for that information, but [the petitioner] did not repeat her name and title within the wording of the reason for the recall, the petition should have been invalidated.
Yeah, the court didn’t fall for that one.
“We reject this argument as it is unpersuasive,” the court ruled.
Wretched Gretchen’s minions were not happy with the courts letting the petitions move forward, and dropped into full conspiracy mode. According to the Daily Wire:
Whitmer’s office responded to the decision by labeling the recall petitions a Republican plot.
“We plan to appeal this disappointing decision and we fully intend to beat back these irresponsible partisan attacks against the Governor in the courts, on the streets, or at the ballot,” the governor’s spokesperson told media in a statement. “This is part of a massive and coordinated attack by Republicans trying to make the Governor fail and our campaign will strenuously oppose these efforts so the Governor can keep saving lives, reopening our economy, and creating jobs.”
Interestingly, the Board of Canvassers was appointed BY Wretched Gretchen. She must have assumed that since she gave them their jobs, they were beholding to her. Well, she isn’t considered to be the sharpest butter knife in the drawer, just another over privileged Progressive who thinks people should bow down to her. As for the petitions?
As for the recall process itself, organizers would need to collect roughly 1.1 million valid signatures within 60 days of the first signature being collected, Fox 17 reported. The deadline to appear on the November 2021 ballot is July 30. If a sufficient number of signatures are gathered, essentially a do-over election would be held with Whitmer squaring off against a Republican nominee.
From some of the people I know out there, Wretched Gretchen is not well liked. Actually, they hate her guts. She’s continuing to restrict the rights of the people of Michigan, and I wouldn’t put it past her to try to do something to disrupt the signature gathering process. That’s what Gruesome Newsom did, but the courts said because of the lock-downs, they time limit would be extended. It will be interesting to see if they can gather enough signatures to recall that cow. We shall see.
