As chairwoman of the House Administration Committee, [Rep, Candice] Miller has jurisdiction over the federal election process, which is currently being tested by disparate state voter registration laws that many say were written to curb minority turnout and others claim are a magnet for voter fraud.
She said that ensuring free and fair elections will be one of her top priorities in her new role.
“My past record and experience as chief elections officer during my time as Michigan’s secretary of state will assist me in accomplishing the many challenges set before us and ensuring that we effectively lead in the area of elections as that is the foundation for our democracy,” Miller said in a statement.
