Pro-Trump Sheriff's 'Ludicrous' Voting Probe Denounced as Private Investigators Question Clerks

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A pro-Trump sheriff in Michigan has launched a probe into voting machines in his county, despite former President Donald Trump winning the region with 65 percent of the votes.

Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf has claimed, as has Trump, that there was voter fraud leading to President Joe Biden's win in the 2020 election. This claim has led the sheriff to open an investigation into voting machines in Barry County, as officials there have denounced the probe as "absolutely ridiculous and ludicrous," CBS local affiliate News Channel 3 reported on Friday.

While Biden won Michigan by more than 150,000 votes—or about 2.8 percent—Trump won Barry County by a wide margin. Official election results from the county showed Trump garnered 23,471 votes there compared to just 11,797 that went for Biden. With 36,146 total ballots cast in Barry County, that means Trump won about 65 percent of the vote while Biden garnered less than 33 percent.

Nonetheless, animated by Trump's baseless claims of widespread voter fraud, Leaf has launched a probe into the voting machines used by his county, according to Channel 3. Local election clerks told the news station that they were questioned by a private investigator who was accompanied by a sheriff's deputy.

1. they are trying to intimidate election officals into quitting so MAGAts can run our elections

and it is working... there was an article a few weeks ago about how thousands of election officials across the country don't want to do elections anymore. sorry, i don't have the link anymore.

3. It worked with Michigan's AG.

She resigned after she and her family received almost constant death threats.

If they keep getting away with this they will take over. The A.G. and her family should have received 24/7 armed guards, paid for by the state. If it started costing people a lot of money, they'd put more pressure on these idiot vigilantes to stop their bullshit.

Democrats can't give in to the pressure of these Trumpholes. Sooner or later it's going to come to armed conflict, and that's just what these assholes want.

4. Dana Nessel is still the MI AG, she has not resigned.
