Just In: Two City Councilmen in Deep Blue City Caught in Ballot Forging Scandal [MI]
American Tribune ^ | August 13, 2025 | Adam Stanton

In a shocking case of corruption, Hamtramck, MI, councilmen Mohammed Kamrul Hassan and Muhtasin Rahman Sadman have been slapped with a bevy of felony and misdemeanor charges for alleged voter fraud during the 2023 elections.

For context, Prosecutor Jeffrey Yorkey, who was appointed after AG Dana Nessel recused herself, pointed to numerous examples of forged absentee ballot applications and widespread measures to aid unqualified voters. Reacting to these allegations with tired race-baiting, Sadman dismissed the charges as “made-up” to tarnish the Muslim and Bangladeshi populations. Similarly, Hassan complained about damage to his reputation.

The sweeping charges stem from an investigation into accusations of absentee ballot fraud, where candidates are alleged to have paid for ballots. Additional investigations are ongoing into the residency of the two controversial politicians.

In any case, Jeffrey Yorkey explained how the changes were only made after “An exhaustive review of law enforcement’s findings.” Describing the alleged actions of Muhtasin Rahman Sadman, he stated, “Sadman forged an absentee ballot application with the intent to defraud and aided or counseled two unqualified electors to vote in the 2023 election.”

Turning to Mohammed Kamrul Hassan, the other man at the center of this scandal, Yorkey claimed, “Hassan forged an absentee ballot application with the intent to defraud in the 2023 election for City Council.”Adding more details, the intrepid investigator noted, “Several law enforcement agencies conducted thorough investigations and submitted their findings to our office.”

Reacting to the damning tide of evidence pointing to his corruption, Sadman tried to paint the investigators as racist. He whined that the charges were “Fully made-up, to make our community, the Muslim and Bangladeshi community, look bad.” Continuing his childish response, the disgraced official promised to fight. He vowed, “It’s a made-up case. We’ll fight.”

The alleged co-conspirator, similarly, seemed unable to accept any responsibility. Mohammed Kamrul Hassan complained about the damage to his social standing, saying, “The allegations of corruption in Hamtramck have hurt my reputation in my workplace. … It destroyed my face value.” He also blamed the media for covering the scandal in a poorly worded rant. Hassan said that reporters do “Not disclose what is not truth. … Don’t tell corruption, corruption, corruption.”

Summarizing the scandal, a state assistant attorney general described the allegations concisely. The official declared, “Some Hamtramck City Council candidates were paying recently naturalized citizens for their absentee ballots in order to fill them out for them.”

Issuing an evasive statement to local media, Hamtramck Mayor Ghalib said, “The case is in legal counsel and a non-biased (sic) third-party investigation is about to be underway. We made sure all parties included in this investigation are out of City Hall on paid administrative leave, to ensure impartiality and to avoid bias.”

Continuing, the mayor noted, “Anyone can say anything and sue for anything at this time, but the truth will be revealed soon and it will dominate the noise. Whoever is clear will be reinstated to his job, and whoever is guilty will face the consequences,” adding, “Our job is to ensure fair and transparent non-bias (sic) investigation, and then we will take actions based on the outcomes.”

This lust in on Truth Social:
<><>Israeli Addresses Registered Multiple Permanent Absentee Voters from a Single Mi Coffee Shop
<><>Mi Dem Secy of State Jocelyn Benson is known for the most corrupt voter rolls in the nation.
<><>320,000 identified “ghost” voters on Michigan’s voter rolls…
<><>middle-aged women registered to vote at Michigan State U’s all-male fraternity houses...
<><>votes being cast from addresses that don’t exist
<><>dead voters galore...
<><>at least 16 KNOWN foreigners registered and VOTED in 2024.
<><>Mi known for precincts where over 100% voted.

Michigan serves as the model for how dirty voter rolls and and corrupt top election officials can cause an entire nation to question the validity of election results.

On July 25, 2025, the Civil Rights division of the US Department of Justice demanded that SOS Benson respond to their request for documents related to the state’s voter registration processes. The letter asked her to explain Duplicate registrations (45.7% of all transactions), low removal rates of ineligible voters, potential violations of federal voter ID laws and Compliance with the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) & Help America Vote Act (HAVA).

Benson, who has been term-limited and is now running in the Democrat primary for governor of Michigan, was given 14 days to comply. She either refused to comply or ignored the DOJ’s request....

On the bright side, this case shows that immigrant Muslims are assimilating and becoming good Democrats.

Democrats and Muslims have two things in common that traditional Americans abhor -- both have absolutely no problem lying or cheating if it benefits them. They consider it a virtue.

Welcome to post-Christian America.

ANOTHER from Blue city-another black man:
City Councilman Curren Price — already facing multiple charges of grand theft and perjury for allegedly voting in favor of projects in which his wife had a financial interest — is due in L.A. criminal court again Thursday after being hit with two new public corruption charges.

This kind of corruption is what the Democrats mean when they say “our democracy”

So sad. Hamtramk used to be mostly a Polish suburb. The *Arabs/Muslims took over everything.

* There were quite a few Middle Eastern Christians in the area, too, but are now outnumbered.

I don’t know but I think we now know what job the “immigrants” are here to do that Americans won’t.

Mohammed Kamrul Hassan and Muhtasin Rahman Sadman are doing exactly what Ilhan Omar does every election cycle.

Probably taught by them. They were the ones that sat up the "machines" after all.

The US really should not have allowed mass immigration of the Irish. Culture, religion, moral and custom they just were incapable of fitting in. The cheap labor just was not worth it.

Probably Democrats otherwise it would be felony charges.
