(Patty McMurray) For three years, Michigan has suffered under the leadership of the most dishonest, partisan Secretary of State to ever occupy the office. MI Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, who was found guilty by a judge of telling elected clerks across the state to ignore signature verification laws, was elected in 2018 when the legalization of marijuana was placed on the ballot. George Soros, who helped Benson with her first unsuccessful run for SOS in Michigan, openly expressed the importance of putting marijuana on state ballots as a way to draw younger, left-leaning voters to the polls.
