As the Michigan State Legislature works to move impeachment
proceedings forward against Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer on a
litany of issues, a new lawsuit lays bare the many instances of
politics that entered in decision making that gerrymandered the
2020 General Election to a win for Democrat Joe Biden.
The Thomas More society’s Amistad Project filed a lawsuit
early in the morning on Thanksgiving Day petitioning Michigan’s
Supreme Court to stop Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson
from certifying the 2020 election results.
The lawsuit asked that there be a moratorium on certification
until the Michigan legislature can adequately investigate the
mountain of fraud claims. It also asks the court to order election
officials to surrender all election materials to the legislature
for this purpose.
The Amistad Project’s lawsuit alleges that Michigan election
officials illegally counted or rejected no fewer than 508,016
ballots. This number far exceeds Democrat presidential hopeful Joe
Biden’s 154,000-vote margin over President Trump.
“State and local officials brazenly violated election laws in
order to advance a partisan political agenda,” Phil Kline,
director of The Amistad Project, said in a statement. “The
pattern of lawlessness was so pervasive and widespread that it
deprived the people of Michigan of a free and fair election,
throwing the integrity of the entire process into question.”
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of two Michigan voters, Angelic
Johnson and Linda Lee Tarver. They claim that the actions executed
by election officials effectively nullified their votes by
illegally undermining a fair election.
Ian Northon, a lawyer representing Johnson and Tarver, said
Michigan law mandates that two signatures for a properly and
legally cast absentee ballot. There must be a signature on the
application form and a signature on the security sleeve for the
ballot. In the 2020 General Election cycle, officials mailed out
more than 300,000 ballots that no one had requested.
“They didn’t request them. You’ve just flooded the market
with unsolicited ballots. No good can come of that,” Northon
insisted.

Even more disturbing is the fact 30,000 voters said they cast
absentee ballots, but Michigan’s voting data records indicate
those ballots were not counted.
Matthew Brainard conducted an examination of the Michigan
election data from this election cycle and found “29,682 people
said they requested a ballot, said they voted, and their ballot
wasn’t counted. The state’s records show it wasn’t
counted,” Northon said.
Northon said The Amistad Project has “more than three dozen
affidavits” swearing eyewitness testimony that Michigan election
officials discarded and destroyed ballots when the result of the
tabulations were not to their liking.
Michigan election authorities counted an additional 35,109
ballots that weren’t associated with any address. Voters “were
sent an absentee ballot, but there’s no address on file. They
voted. That violates the law,” Northon said.
Election officials also counted:
- 13,248 ballots cast by individuals who were registered to vote
in another state - 317 ballots from people who voted more than once
- 259 ballots from voters who listed only an email address
instead of a physical address
These illegitimate tabulations and illegal omissions total more
than three times the margin of victory for Biden over President
Trump in the State of Michigan.
