  • The local vote, which was eventually certified under pressure from state officials...

    and further down:

    "The Constitution and Michigan Election Law do not authorize boards of county canvassers to refuse to certify election results based on claims made by third parties of alleged election irregularities, or a general desire to conduct election investigations," the letter says. Failure to certify would mean that the clerk would have to personally deliver all records including ballots and voting machines to Michigan state canvassers — all at the county's own expense. The price tag, the letter adds pointedly, will be "expansive."

    Spoiler alert. It's all fun and games until you actually have to put in work. Shouting random crap you read off Facebook doesn't work in the real world.
