    The 2014 Gubernatorial Primary . . . (none / 0) (#7)
    by Kevin Rex Heine on Thu Nov 08, 2012 at 12:30:25 PM EST
    . . . will be held on Tuesday, August 5th, 2014.  The filing deadline for this primary is Tuesday, May 13th, 2014.

    That having been said, the requirements to appear on the partisan gubernatorial primary ballot are defined in Michigan Election Law, Act 116-1954-V (specifically Section 168.53) as identical to the requirements for the partisan federal senate ballot:  Not less than 15,000 signatures on a partisan nominating petition (nor more than 30,000), with at least 100 signatures required from each of half of the state's congressional districts.

    Now, if we're serious about primarying the GoverNerd, then we need to note that the campaign to do so will effectively start at the September 2013 Mackinac Conference.  We also want to minimize the number of challengers, so as to avoid diluting the primary vote.  Now that I think about it, this is where MI4CS could work really well, assuming that Cindy can herd the cats together.
