The RNC and Michigan Republican Party are suing Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson over what they allege is “incomplete” guidance from her office on how election clerks should verify absentee ballots.

The case marks the RNC ’s 16th voting-related lawsuit as Republicans amp up their election litigation ahead of the presidential race.

Plaintiffs say the document doesn't inform clerks of all of their requirements under the law.
