Dr. Jack Kevorkian has collected enough signatures to be on the
November ballot as a congressional candidate in Michigan. Joe Rozell,
director of elections for Oakland County, says Kevorkian had about
3,200 valid signatures. Kevorkian needed to collect 3,000. The
80-year-old in March announced plans to run as an independent
for the 9th Congressional District seat held by Republican Joe
Knollenberg. Kevorkian, nicknamed "Dr. Death," was released from
prison last year after serving eight years for helping an Oakland
County man with Lou Gehrig’s disease die in 1998.
