Republican who attended a 'Stop the Steal' rally launches bid for Michigan Supreme Court

Michigan Republican state Rep. Andrew Fink, an election denier who attended a “Stop the Steal” rally at the Michigan state Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, announced on Monday that he’s running for a spot on the Michigan Supreme Court.

“Our courts play a pivotal role in preserving public safety,” Fink said in a statement announcing his candidacy. “As a justice, one of my priorities will be to restore faith in government institutions by emphasizing transparency, accountability, and integrity in our state court system.”

Fink is one of hundreds of supporters of former President Donald Trump who gathered at the state Capitol to protest the certification of President Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential election.

“All citizens have the constitutional right to petition the government for the redress of grievances, and these citizens have the right to know that all our elections are free and fair,” Fink wrote in a Facebook post that included a photo of the Michigan Capitol. “Governor [Gretchen] Whitmer and Secretary [of State Jocelyn] Benson, these are your constituents, too. Will you commit to helping make sure Michigan elections are beyond reproach? Because that’s our job.”
