Three representatives would be appointed to prosecute the impeachment case in the Michigan Senate. Two-thirds of senators must vote to convict the Governor in order for her to be removed. With Republicans holding a 22-16 majority in the Michigan Senate, at least three Democrats would need to vote for her removal.
