Since the 2020 election, the messaging around this country’s election integrity has remained consistent.
Democrats and media elites (a redundant way of putting it, I know) continue to say what they’ve always said: That the vast, pandemic-related restructuring of American election protocols in 2020 and beyond was safe and secure and that anyone who questions it — in any way — is a crazed conspiracy theorist.
Well, that narrative took yet another major hit this month when a Michigan judge ruled that one such procedure — implemented in the Wolverine state in December 2023 — is unconstitutional and illegal, according to The Detroit News.
The ruling, handed down by Court of Claims Judge Christopher Yates, blasted guidance from Democratic Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson telling election officials to assume all absentee ballot signatures were authentic.
“Our constitution calls for a signature comparison without making a presumption for or against validity,” Yates wrote in the June 12 ruling, according to The Detroit News.
“Similarly, the language in Michigan statutes precludes the application of a presumption of validity.”
The issue of absentee ballots and their authenticity was one of the biggest voter fraud claims when it came to the 2020 election.
