LANSING (WKZO) -- Congressman Thaddeus McCotter has been relegated to running a write-in campaign as he seeks a sixth term representing suburban Detroit, but bigger problems may loom.
Bureau of Elections Director Christopher Thomas says several hundred of the petition signatures turned in by McCotter's are problematic and called it an "unprecedented level" of what he says was obvious fraud. Dozens of the sheets appeared to have been photocopied and the Secretary of State's office has turned the case over to the attorney general.
McCotter says the problems need to be investigated, and says he feels he was "lied to by someone we trusted."
