Conflict Of Interest, Much?

Jocelyn Benson is Michigan's current Secretary of State charged with conducting, overseeing, and counting the results our state's elections.

She also happens to be running for governor now.

And, she also happens to have a history of being shall we say, awfully flexible with the rules, in ways that happen to favor herself and fellow Democrats?  

Indeed, she broke election and campaign finance laws when announcing her campaign from a state government facility. But, to no one's surprise, the fellow Democrat Attorney General and Benson Buddy Dana Nessel announced there would be no sanctions for the wrongdoing.

Quite the conflict of interest there, as the one charged to administer the election happens to be the same person running in it, especially as she has quite the history of not exactly abiding by the rules.

Handy Hansome: Funny how that works isn't it?

markshere2: Yep the "Secretary of State Project" schemed and pushed for Democrats in that position for a reason - and election f-ery was certainly one of the reasons.
