On this week's MIRS Monday Podcast:
Matt Wilk – a Northville-based attorney and Republican 6th congressional precinct delegate – says "no one can guarantee" which delegates will move forward in the GOP presidential nominating process.
Most of Michigan's Republican delegates for deciding the presidential nominee will be determined through a party-run convention on Saturday. But there are dueling conventions, one run by the Pete Hoekstra faction in Grand Rapids and another by the Kristina Karamo faction in Detroit.
Additionally, the team is joined by Cooley Law School professor Jeffrey Swartz, who disagrees with the belief that states cannot regulate 501(c)4s as they relate to campaign funding. 501(c)4 nonprofit organizations have been criticized for carrying anonymous "dark money" to influence politics and policy.
Also, Robin Clark of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians comes on, explaining her journey to becoming the first Anishinaabe woman to serve on the Michigan Natural Resources Commission.
