Yuuuge U-Turn in Michigan: GOP canvassers rescind their certification of vote

Leftist threats and doxxing didn't work. Why this stunning turnaround is so consequential.

The item in this “Just the News” update is huge.

In an extraordinary turnabout that foreshadows possible legal action, the two GOP members of Wayne County's election board signed affidavits Wednesday night alleging they were bullied and misled into approving election results in Michigan's largest metropolis and do not believe the votes should be certified until serious irregularities in Detroit votes are resolved.

It’s what is necessary for Trump to win Michigan. And if this holds up, that’s a good bet. Here’s the brief chronology, a real roller coaster.

Yesterday the Election Board for Michigan’s largest county deadlocked 2-2 on certifying the election returns because of a huge number of irregularities in 70% of the areas under their purview.

Without certification, the state cannot elect Electoral College electors, which means the Republican dominated Legislature will choose the electors. Which means Trump wins Michigan.

Within a couple hours of the 2-2 deadlock, Rashida Tlaib, the Muslim radical, led a mob of complainers accusing the 2 Republicans of disenfranchising blacks and of being racist. They demanded the results be certified.

I don’t believe it was signed. They said they would sign it.

A list of those cretins that publically smeared and threatened them would be a good start. Preferably with phone numbers.

I know many will say we should not stoop to their level, but smiling while you are robbed does not seem virtuous to me. Sometimes a little turnabout would truly be fair play.

My suggestion was merely to give an avenue to those who wish to vent their spleen.

I’m not advocating threats or violence, but merely expressing displeasure at what they did.

There are signed affidavits coming that attest to intimidation. I am really surprised that the GOP got caught flat footed …. again. And THIS time it is for ALL the marbles.

Trump tweeted yesterday that they never signed. I think they agreed to but hadn’t actually done it yet.

They should never have signed.

Making their names synonymous with fraud, forever, would satisfy me.

Actually this should be the only course of action when 71% of the precinct numbers don't add up.

I think they need to hear from us.

Simple logic that ignores the nature of your average Republican politician. In the unlikely event this goes to the state legislature, my guess is there will be enough crossover rinos to give it to Biden.

NOT enforceable if signed under duress. This pair were being severely threatened...and it is now out in the open.
