Bordering States Rule
How is the bordering state rule drawn up by actual land touching land? Reason I ask is Michigan touches Ohio, Indiana & Wisconsin (by virtue of the Upper Peninsula) but looking at an atlas, Michigan's Great Lakes boundary also touches Illinois, Minnesota and again through the Upper Peninsula Ontario, Canada. Can Michigan draw from 5 states and Ontario Canada.

Bordering states coverage does not bridge the Great Lakes of Lake Superior (MI/MN), Lake Michigan (MI/IL) or Lake Erie (MI/PA) or (MI/NY) as they relate to Michigan ... This topic is debated from time to time here (and this may start it again!), but that's the eligibility rule as currently interpreted and applied ...
