Michigan Begins Passing Election Integrity Bills
Breitbart ^ | Mar 01 2021 | Kyle Olson

Posted on 03/01/2021 7:19:58 PM PST by Chad C. Mulligan

Hall said there were concerns even before the election.

“The Michigan auditor general found that there were many people across our state who were over 120 years old, which is longer than the oldest living person and we found there’s over 300,000 people who were inactive voters who haven’t voted in over 20 years,” he said.

Hall said Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (D) knew those facts but still sent out “millions of unsolicited absentee ballot applications to this inactive voter list.” However, Hall insisted “we knew the list was inaccurate.”

He told The Kyle Olson Show House Bill 4127 will remove dead and inactive voters from the rolls, which would help to restore confidence in the election process. The House also passed a bill introduced by state Rep. Julie Calley (R) related to HB 4127.

Hall said the voters would not be automatically ineligible to vote, but rather would be required to provide evidence that they should remain registered.

He said he concluded after holding a series of hearings that “there’s a lot of things that we need to change in our election law in Michigan.”

Hall cited improved training for city and county clerks who conduct the voting processes and specifically signature verification.

He also said the legislature should prevent the secretary of state from sending unsolicited absentee ballot applications, which a secretary had never sent before. Benson used coronavirus relief funds from the federal government to pay for the roughly $5 million expenditure.

While Republicans control the legislature, Hall said he has to remind constituents who are concerned about this issue that the state elected Democrats as governor, attorney general, and secretary of state, and in 2020, Democrats gained the majority on the state Supreme Court.

This is all part of the Kabuki Theater as the Uniparty desperately tries to sell the lie that there will be integrity in elections.

They cannot afford to have people walk away and treat it all as the sham that it is because once they walk away they start to have real expectations of those directly responsible and will refuse to accept the pathetic excuse of government bloat and incompetence.

Everyone who hasn’t gone off the planet should stop and think about how asinine this statement is. “Dur hur, stop voting because that will make the politicians listen to you.” This is utterly laughable. Politicians have absolutely zero reason to listen to those who don’t bother to vote. They aren’t competing for the non-voters, they care about staying in power and that means listening to the people who actually vote.

Pretending that you will somehow gain anything by cowering and surrendering is simply being a Soros sucking useful idiot (at best). It’s far more likely that the clowns peddling this trash are nothing more than paid Soros shills.

And yet they certified the election.
These piles of useless crap were complicit in the fraud, and NOW they want to correct it?

They ALL need to be run out of town on a ra... every single one of them

A very cogent observation.

Frankly I don’t care if they’re on the rolls as much as I want to know how many of these 120 year olds and 20 year long inactive voters cast an absentee ballot in 2020?

Governors aren't involved. The state legislatures create the election laws without the governors.

State legislatures have the sole power to create the election laws. The governors aren't involved.

If Georgia didn’t have a feckless SOS and an inept governor, it wouldn’t be a problem. They gave Stacy everything.

Here’s an example of legislature trying to exercise this power you are so certain of.

Which will promptly be ignored and violated, and nobody will do anything about it.
