MI SB1161

Adds Section 547 to Michigan election law governing petition signature requirements and circulator conduct.

Failure to print names in prescribed locations or enter correct zip codes does not invalidate circulator or elector signatures, but missing required signature, street address, or signing date renders an elector's signature invalid.

Circulators must sign and date petition certificates before filing and cannot obtain signatures after certification; filing officials must reject signatures obtained after the certification date.

Prohibits individuals from signing petitions with false names, making false statements on petition certificates, or signing as a circulator when not authorized; violations are misdemeanors punishable by up to $500 fine or 93 days imprisonment.

Signing petitions with more than one false name constitutes a felony; aiding or abetting prohibited petition violations results in guilt of that same act.

Bill takes effect only if Senate Bills 1163, 1164, 1165, 1166, and 1167 are all enacted into law.
