U of M Board of Regents candidate sues Michigan Democratic Party over convention results
The Michigan Democratic party is facing a lawsuit over the race for its University of Michigan Board of Regents nomination.
The race was decided at the party’s August 24 nominating convention in Lansing.
According to official party results, civil rights attorney Huwaida Arraf lost her bid for the party’s nomination for the U of M Board of Regents.
But Arraf said there were irregularities she’d like explained. She said her lawsuit is because party leaders haven’t provided election data she’s been asking for.
“If there’s something happened that we don’t understand, then just tell us,” Arraf told reporters during a press call Thursday.
