Lansing, Mich. — Attorney General Dana Nessel warned recount observers and participants Wednesday against causing disruptions during a statewide recount of Proposals 2 and 3, citing disruptions and concerns at two recounts in Ingham and Jackson counties.
Nessel's office had been receiving reports of "threatening behavior and interference" at some recount locations, later clarifying that those reports related to complaints in Jackson County. The department also was contacted by the Ingham County clerk "to relay concerns."
"My department is monitoring the situation closely and will not hesitate to act should circumstances demand a response from law enforcement," Nessel said in the statement.
