Trumper sheep again fall for another false narrative. When will you people learn?
The
committee’s 55-page report, the culmination of an eight-month investigation, stated: “Citizens should be confident the results represent the true results of the ballots cast by the people of Michigan.” President Joe Biden won the November election in Michigan by more than 154,000 votes.
Predictably,
former President Donald Trump immediately lashed out at the GOP state senators who led the investigation, urging the people of Michigan to “vote them out of office” and calling the investigation a “cover up.”
The report by the Michigan Senate Oversight Committee debunks a number of 2020 conspiracy theories, such as claims that ballots were cast by dead people and voters who had moved out of state. (They weren’t.) Similarly, the report noted that inspection of paper ballots in a number of jurisdictions rebutted baseless allegations that vote counts were changed by tabulating machines provided by Dominion and other vendors. And — contrary to a
claim voiced by Trump — the report found that Detroit did not have more votes cast than it has people. In fact, 250,138 votes were cast in Detroit, about 50 percent of the city’s registered voters and 37 percent of its total population of 670,000. The report goes so far as to recommend that the state attorney general consider “investigating those who have been utilizing misleading and false information” about election fraud in Michigan “to raise money or publicity for their own ends.”
