ECU // LAV Congratulates Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson on Winning Re-election

Nov 09, 2022

End Citizens United // Let America Vote President Tiffany Muller released the following statement on Jocelyn Benson’s win in the Michigan SOS race:

“Congratulations to Secretary Benson on her well-deserved win. We are excited for Secretary Benson’s continued leadership in protecting the freedom to vote and fighting back against self-serving politicians attempting to sabotage Michigan’s democracy. Today’s win is critical to the survival of our free and fair elections.”

ECU endorsed Secretary Benson in 2021 as part of its first ever Democracy Defenders program because of her proven track record of protecting voting rights and keeping Michigan’s elections free and fair. In March 2022, Benson and ECU President Tiffany Muller held a press call to outline the stakes of the SOS race and the danger that extremist conspiracy theorist candidates pose to our democracy. President Tiffany Muller joined Benson again just days before the election to fire up voters in Michigan. ECU along with Safe Accessible Fair Elections (SAFE) ran a 7 figure ad buy in support of Benson’s campaign. Additionally, ECU raised and contributed over $80,000 in support of Secretary Benson’s re-election.
