Michigan AG, Police Ignore Those Accused of Election Fraud, Focus on These Folks Instead
Here’s another example of truth being stranger than fiction.
Michigan’s attorney general, Dana Nessel, will investigate claims of election fraud – but not those who may have committed election fraud. Instead, she’s going after folks who claimed election fraud happened during the 2020 contest.
In other words, the whistleblowers who want to shine the light of truth on what happened last November.
A spokeswoman for Nessel told The Epoch Times in an email on Friday that the probe will target people who made claims of election fraud. And with help from the Michigan State Police.
If this wasn’t weird enough, listen to who wanted these investigations.
The spokeswoman said Nessel decided to launch the probes on a request from Republicans in the Michigan Senate.
This is a follow-up from a GOP-controlled Senate panel report issued last month. The report said it “found no evidence of widespread or systematic fraud in Michigan’s prosecution of the 2020 election.”
In other words, “Nothing to see here, folks – move right along.”
There’s been plenty of evidence of election hijinks since last November. So much that 7,000 Michigan citizens submitted affidavits under oath, which claimed there was election fraud.
An affidavit is a sworn written version of testimony. If someone submits a false affidavit, they can be prosecuted under federal law for up to five years in prison. That’s why
Patrick Colbeck, a former Michigan senator, recently started a petition to censure the GOP senators who signed onto the report. And he denounced what he described as legislators’ “attempt to marginalize those exposing election fraud.”
In a lengthy post on his site, Colbeck said the panel’s report “consistently repeats the flawed assertion that the integrity of the election can be demonstrated simply by running ballots through the tabulator.”
Colbeck added:
“The Committee appears to be operating under an extremely unique definition of ‘election fraud’ that dismissed any evidence of fraud if it did not add up to the 154,188 votes promoted as the margin of victory for Joe Biden. This failure of reasoning dismisses the cumulative effect of breaches in the chain of custody and violations of existing statute.”
Here are several questions on this subject. Why is Michigan going after people who called out instances of election fraud last fall?
And why did 7,000 Michigan citizens submit sworn affidavits to the state legislature that they saw instances of election fraud?
In addition, why have Michigan Republicans acted like lapdogs instead of watchdogs when it comes to election integrity? Especially when election fraud negatively affected the GOP candidate for president, and probably other down-ticket candidates.
It looks like political leaders in Michigan had a hand in possible election fraud. And they want to discourage and/or punish citizens who want to find the truth.
These tactics look like something from the former Soviet Union instead of the “land of the free.”
