As Exec. Dir. of Voters @NotPoliticians - the group that ran an all volunteer petition signature drive in 2018 to end gerrymandering, we know a thing or two about signature gathering. Today’s Unlock MIchigan petition drop-off is troubling in a number of ways.

A thread …. 1/ @NotPoliticians Video and tape recordings show Unlock Michigan willing to lie and cheat to get a MI law passed without your approval.
