I saw a similar piece posted up in one of the nearby threads, but then couldn't locate it.
So I thought I'd post it up as a stand-alone thread as it is pretty doggone pertinent to many of the discussion on this venue about 'stolen elections', fraud, yadda, yadda, yadda.
It was published this morning in the Detroit Free Press:
"Michigan audits debunk stolen election claims once and for all"
"All of Michigan’s more than 250 election audits are now complete, and each and every one of them affirmed the integrity of the November election and the accuracy of the results.
More than 1,300 Republican, Democratic, and non-partisan election clerks participated in the audits, working across the aisle to review one another’s procedures, ballots and machines in coordination with the state Bureau of Elections.
Their findings eradicate any rationale for continuing to question the validity of the November election.
A hand count of more than 18,000 randomly selected ballots from jurisdictions across the state affirmed that the tabulation machines throughout Michigan had accurately determined the winner of the presidential election.
And another hand count of every ballot cast for president in Antrim County found that the Dominion machines used there were extremely accurate, with a final tally of more than 15,000 votes that was only 12 votes different from the machine count.
Further, officials found that absentee ballot counting boards had done an even better job processing and counting ballots than had been known previously.
They found that election workers in Detroit had properly counted 174,000 valid ballots. The ballots corresponded to signed envelopes that were submitted by registered voters and reviewed by the clerk’s office.
And of those 174,000 ballots, the counting boards were “out of balance” by a net total of only 17 votes.
No more lies
Like so many of the lies that have been told about the November election, these attacks are dangerous, racist, and undertaken for personal and political gain.
And they must stop now.
More than 1,300 election clerks, a dozen unsuccessful lawsuits, and 250 audits all demonstrate the integrity and accuracy of Michigan’s presidential election.
Political leaders on both sides of the aisle must acknowledge this truth, and state it clearly and unequivocally to their constituents.
The November, 2020, election, was the most secure in our state’s history, and the results accurately reflect the will of Michigan’s voters."
