Fighting election fraud is racist evidently

UPDATE: Republican canvassers have rescinded their certifications.

The two Republicans on the Wayne County Michigan Board of Canvassers agreed to certify their fraudulent election after a two hour pressure campaign targeting them as racists.

The two board members initially refused to certify the results after noting discrepancies and the ballot counts in 71% of the county’s precincts do not match voter rolls. Lawsuits challenging the results contain hundreds of pages of affidavits reporting massive fraud that occurred in Wayne County on election night and after.

Ned Staebler, the chief executive of TechTown who, according to the New York Times, is a poll challenger at the T.C.F Center in the city, said in a viral Zoom meeting, “The Trump stain, the stain of racism that you, William Hartman and Monica Palmer, have covered yourself in, is going to follow you throughout history.”

He said the two would “forever be known in southeastern Michigan as two racists who did something so unprecedented that they disenfranchised hundreds of thousands of Black voters in the city of Detroit.”

“Suggesting that all of Wanye County can be certified, EXCEPT for Detroit, is horrifyingly racist and a subversion of our democracy,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) said.

So, evidently, wanting legitimate elections is racist, got it.
