Apparently when the two Republicans decided they couldn't certify Wayne County's election, the Democrats immediately began lying to them, bullying, harassing, and threatening them. So within a few hours they decided to certify the vote instead.

Well, now they've decided that that's not the right thing to do, and have announced that they will not certify after all.

Stay tuned to this thread. By this time tomorrow, they might have gone back to certifying once more for all I know. And the Democrats will then go back to insisting there is no fraud or other suspicious behavior in the election.

In dramatic reversal, Wayne County election board Republicans rescind votes certifying results
In affidavits, GOP canvass board members claim they were bullied and say there are too many irregularities in Detroit vote to justify accepting election results.

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.

The statements by Wayne County Board of Canvassers Chairwoman Monica Palmer and fellow GOP member William C. Hartmann rescinding their votes from a day earlier threw into question anew whether Michigan's presidential vote currently favoring Democrat Joe Biden will be certified. They also signaled a possible legal confrontation ahead.

"I voted not to certify, and I still believe this vote should not be certified," Hartmann said in his affidavits. "Until these questions are addressed, I remain opposed to certification of the Wayne County results."

Added Palmer in her affidavit: "I rescind my prior vote to certify Wayne County elections."

Ongoing effort to malign the election in order to suggest Trump didn't lose fair and square.

He did.

He's done.

He lost.

He lost to a man who got the most votes ever in US history.

Yep, you heard right. Some idiot LITERALLY threatened them on LIVE VIDEO! Not real bright. Threatening an elections official is a federal crime. People were threatening their kids, posting their addresses etc.

What they are doing is one of the most heinous acts ever carried out in our democracy’s history. They are attempting to disenfranchise an entire county because they aren’t happy with the way that it voted. They have zero legal evidence to support their positions. They are basing their decisions on rightwing conspiracy theories.

They are living scum as are their enablers.

Whether they are Democrat, Republican or anything else .... if they committed a crime, they should go to jail.
