LANSING, Mich. — The Michigan Board of State Canvassers voted unanimously Monday to certify the results of the state’s Nov. 8 general election during an at-capacity, hours-long meeting in which two audience members were escorted out by police.
Several candidates challenging Election Day practices, including Republican Secretary of State candidate Kristina Karamo, spoke out against Election Day practices in an attempt to delay the certification.
But the four-member bipartisan board stood by the results and argued candidates either misunderstood the process or were taking issue with the law underlying the practice — in which case, they could file litigation or lobby for a change in law.
