A former Michigan county township clerk has been charged with ballot tampering and official misconduct in connection with an expected recount in her own August 2020 primary election.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced the charges on Friday against ex-Flint Township Clerk Kathy Funk, a Democrat who will face trial in Genesee County District court.

Funk is accused of intentionally breaking a seal on a ballot container so the votes could not be counted in an anticipated recount. Funk was running for reelection, and narrowly prevailed in the unofficial count, Nessel said.

Funk also was serving at the time as an election official. A recount did not happen. Funk later resigned her township job and took a job as Genesee County election supervisor.

"Election officials must uphold the integrity of their positions," Nessel said. "Those who abuse that commitment undermine the very foundation of our democracy. Our department is committed to prosecuting election violations, regardless of the political party of the perpetrator."

Funk's attorney says she plans to plead innocent to the charges, each of which is punishable by a maximum of five years in prison.

"She says it's absolutely not true," attorney Matthew Norwood told MLive.

So 30 days jail time out on probation?

[dsrtsage]

The good news is that though she is charged, it is without evidence

What’s the point? It didn’t change the results of the stolen election!!! Well over a year now. They are all acting in concert!

1) They will receive no significant jail time;
2) this has been reported in multiple states, same result;
3) if they were jailed, NOTHING will change the 2020 result;
4) Demonrats will keep doing this as often as they want, to steal whatever elections they can get away with stealing.
5) Therefore, I have TOTALLY LOST ALL TRUST in US Federal elections, and refuse to vote in them any more.

No. The election wasn’t stolen. The fags in the “mainstream media” told us so.

Nazi Nessel is a Soros stooge.

So? No consequences. Just another poke in the eye for us.

If it can be proven, she’ll find some way to claim stupidity - the DNC fallback when caught in a crime. Surprisingly, it works a lot for Democrats.

The prison term for Democrat ex-Flint Township Clerk Kathy Funk needs to be no less than the longest term of political office that was voted on in the election. If there were senator seats on the ballot, that's six years.

In addition, she needs to be banned from ever holding a taxpayer funded job, including as a contractor, and banned from ever voting again.

So what…the Liberals STILL have their sh*& head in the WH!

Get a rope.

The point

is to put all these criminals behind bars before the midterms and 2024 so we don’t get more stolen elections

And as a deterrent to the others who would otherwise have no qualms about committing crimes against the legal secure election process.

Waving a white flag of surrender

out of despair and feeling of futility

sure isn’t going to fix anything.

"Election officials must uphold the integrity of their positions," Nessel said. "Those who abuse that commitment undermine the very foundation of our democracy. Our department is committed to prosecuting election violations, regardless of the political party of the perpetrator."

And she added, "Oh, and the 2020 Presidential and Michigan U.S. Senate elections were still the cleanest ever!"

Is she the communist lesbo?
