The campaign of Michigan Senatorial candidate John James (R) has accused local officials of impropriety, voter suppression, and election interference after incumbent Gary Peters picked up hundreds of thousands of votes overnight.
Stuart Sandler, a consultant for James’ campaign who also observed the count as a volunteer lawyer, told Fox News they allege there were a “lot of irregularities” throughout the process that must be looked into.
“There were all kinds of chicanery, including ballots that came in reportedly in the middle of the night at 3:30 a.m. – 35,000 ballots that were deceptively brought in,” Sandler said. “There have been a lot of irregularities and a lack of integrity. They’re not letting challengers in, they’re not letting them get food or water. When they do, they’re not letting them come back. There are all sorts of disruptions to the process.”
With James holding a significant lead right up into the early hours of Wednesday morning, Sandler alleged Mark Brewer, a former state Democratic chairman, organized the arrival of dozens of lawyers and activists to the TCF center in Detroit in order to “disrupt the process.”
“There’s a lack of integrity there,” he explained. “The people of Michigan made their choice and they’ve been trying to disrupt the process. And we’re reviewing our options.”
Yet in an interview with AP, Brewer insisted the process was the cleanest and most effective Detroit had ever had. “This is the best absentee ballot counting operation that Detroit has ever had,” he said. “They are counting ballots very efficiently, despite the obstructing tactics of the Republicans.”
Election desks declared Peters the winner on Wednesday evening, having allegedly edged out his opponent by just over 70,000 votes. Although Republicans are still likely to hold on to their Senate majority, many were optimistic that James, an African-American businessman and Iraq War veteran, could flip the seat.
The complaints from the James campaign follow the announcement from President Donald Trump’s campaign similarly alleging lack of access to counting stations.
“President Trump’s campaign has not been provided with meaningful access to numerous counting locations to observe the opening of ballots and the counting process, as guaranteed by Michigan law,” Trump 2020 campaign manager Bill Stepien said in a statement.
You must stop the dems this is plain wrong
Take them to court! Biden even admitted on national tv the the democrat party had the best voter fraud organization. There is no way Biden won.
C’mon, man! There is obviously something amiss. It appears to be a total lack of integrity. The fact that it is Michigan and Detroit should set off alarms. I can’t wait for decent people to examine and recount the ballots.
There have been several reports of large bags of democrat-only ballots being dumped in various places all over the country where republicans were winning big.
I do not know if this is true, however, I also heard on satellite radio, that unknown to the democrats, President Trump had the printers include FEDERAL “security watermarks” on all printed ballots to endure a fair election. If this is TRUE, and fraudulently printed ballots are discovered , this will turn the election on it’s ear.
ALSO it was reported, 400,000 biden-ONLY votes were “delivered” in Virginia in a large bag,”in the nick of time”,. after President trump was 300,000 votes ahead, and there was no way for the democommunists to catch up..
I feel the mail in ballots be voided and a revote at the polls for everyone who did a mail in, excluding military and actual disabled individuals.
or
a phone system that is recorded to be immediately started calling each and every mail in ballot confirming each is the one that voted and confirming who they voted for!!
I bet a lot of the fraud show up that way but the best is just a re vote at a poll.
In the mean time get the law suites started and the people petitioned because it is them that is being cheated of their votes…
Continue fighting. John James deserves to represent Michigan in the Senate. The people of Michigan deserve to be represented by a Senator as qualified as John James.
PLEASE investigate however you can. We need a fair election.
Wha, Wha, Wha, WHaaaa
I agree that Michigan votes should be looked at again. I believe John James should have been winner along with Donald Trump.
I had people coming to my house several times looking for my daughter because the Democrat party wanted her vote. She was receiving hand writtten letters, postcards and then people showed up twice. Not cool!
Vote fraud is very easy to commit, very hard to prove and prosecute. That’s why the Democrats are so good at it.
Something nefarious happened in the middle of the night after midnight Tuesday. Now, investigators need to run it down and corrective actions need to be taken. Otherwise, the national electorate has been disenfranchised.
The irregularities were having dummycrats count the votes.
It is so obvious that there is rapid fraud. If it were me I’d demand a recount and a review of the legality of every ballot. Makes me wonder about the stuff we as a country have never questioned.
A total revote! ALL in person vote except military and disabled. Full transparency at the polls and at the processing center. Why are these state not obtaining and processing these votes by use of technology? Their processing method is dated back to the 70’s! It actually worked better in the 70’s as we didn’t have as much corruption back then as we do now!
