MI-SEN: Mike Rogers mischaracterizes voting process for Michiganders without photo IDs

While on Newsmax last week, Michigan Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers mischaracterized how voters in the state can cast their ballots without a photo ID, failing to note it involves a legally binding affidavit.

During an Aug. 21 appearance on “Carl Higbie Frontline,” Rogers discussed a lawsuit from the Republican National Committee against Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson over voter roll maintenance when he pivoted to the state’s voter ID laws.

“And by the way, what they tell you is if you don’t show up with an ID, you can sign a piece of paper that said, ‘No, gee whiz, I really am ‘fill in the blank,”” Rogers said. “It should make you feel a lot better about how that’s handled in the state of Michigan. So it is concerning.”

Rogers also pledged that “ballot integrity people” were being recruited.
