Michigan Republican legislative leaders were not happy on Friday when they learned the Board of Elections (BOE) ordered county clerks to delete election-related data from government computers.
On December 1, the BOE, which is under the auspices of Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (D), sent a memo to all clerks about recounts and the “release of voting equipment.”
One section, titled, “E-Pollbook laptops and flash drives,” read:
The EPB software and associated files must be deleted from all devices by the seventh calendar day following the final canvass and certification of the election (November 30, 2020) unless a petition for recount has been filed and the recount has not been completed, a post-election audit is planned but has not yet been completed, or the deletion of the data has been stayed by an order of the court or the Secretary of State.
That raised the ire of state Rep. Matt Hall (R) and state Sen. Ed McBroom (R), chairmen of their respective oversight committees, who indicated the memo violated an order by House Speaker Lee Chatfield (R) and Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey (R) for election data to be preserved.
Chatfield and Shirkey issued a directive on November 6 “which served as notice of the Michigan Legislature’s plans to conduct an inquiry into the general election,” a release from Hall said.
“Because of that inquiry, Detroit city clerk and BOE offices were directed to preserve certain materials, including relevant electronic information. The inquiry also demands all surveillance video recordings that were taken at the TCF Center in Detroit from Nov. 3-5 be kept,” it continued.

“So many lampp posts. It needs to start happening.“
Yup. We elect and PAY people to handle our elections and all other governmental duties.
If they’re no longer feeling obligated to DO the jobs that we are PAYING them to do - let’s string em up and do it ourselves.
They still have that ace-up-their-sleeve Frankfut camel *ucker server to stop the steal.
And who exactly will do the arresting? What faith do you still have in any of this and why?
The minimal risk of prosecution for destroying evidence is nothing to a Democrat compared with the victory of having Biden win the White House. We saw this happen over and over again with the Clinton administration.
I think this whole situation in Michigan is the result of “girl power” run amok.
true.
Agree.
Sad but True.
