Lawsuit demanding that more than 10% of election inspectors be Republicans thrown out by Whitmer-appointed judge...On Nov. 2, Circuit Court Judge Mark Latchana rejected the Republicans' case, saying they lacked standing to bring the complaint under state law. Latchana agreed with the city that only the county chair of the Republican Party would be in a position to bring the complaint to court.
Gustavo Portela, communications director for the Michigan Republican Party, said, "Flint has over 80% Democrat inspectors, and over 90% Democrat inspectors for the absentee vote counting boards. ... This is unacceptable."
According to MLive, city attorneys claimed Flint had satisfied the requirements of the law, having appointed "as nearly as possible" an equal number even if the result was a ratio of 9 to 1.
The Republicans indicated they would appeal the ruling with only five days left to go until Election Day.
