The Michigan Court of Appeals on Thursday rejected a lawsuit that sought to boot suspected insurrectionist Ryan Kelley from the general election ballot if he wins the primary next month. The three-judge panel said the lawsuit was filed too close to the Aug. 2 primary election to remove Kelley, one of five Republican candidates vying for a chance to take on Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in the November election. The court made no judgment on whether Kelley was an insurrectionist.
