DETROIT, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – Former Detroit Police Chief James Craig will not support Tudor Dixon in her bid to unseat incumbent Governor Gretchen Whitmer in November.
Craig was leading the GOP polls for the Republican nomination when a group supporting Dixon filed a complaint about petition signatures collected by Craig’s campaign. The investigation led to thousands of signatures being disqualified and Craig being kicked off the ballot.
Craig has filed a lawsuit against 18 petitioners and the company they worked for and says the legal action will “open the doors to what really took place”.
Four other candidates were also disqualified from GOP ballot due to signature forgeries.
