An effort to recall Governor Gretchen Whitmer can proceed, but it’ll be an uphill climb to get enough signatures to get the recall effort on the ballot.

The bipartisan Board of State Canvassers unanimously approved the petition language Monday.

Albion resident Chad Baase is behind the petition.

He’s pushing to recall Governor Whitmer because of an executive order she signed in March that had temporally suspended non-essential businesses and activities. The petition lists eight other executive orders signed during the COVID-19 pandemic that Baase says are illegal.

Baase’s group, the Committee to Recall Governor Gretchen Whitmer, only has 60 days to collect 1 million signatures to get the recall effort on the ballot.

Whitmer’s campaign team called the petition a, “baseless partisan attack,” and said in a statement that she’ll fight the petition aggressively while, “staying focused on protecting Michigan families from the spread of COVID-19.”
