In a recent interview, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson shed light on the coordinated effort to delay the certification of election results and create doubt regarding their validity in the battleground states, ultimately leading to the presentation of a false slate of electors to Congress on January 6th. The interview referenced a recorded phone call, in which then-President Donald Trump allegedly attempted to influence the certification process in Georgia.
Secretary Benson emphasized that the recording illustrated the attempts to interfere with the certification process, contradicting claims that there were no issues at the time. The recanting of a certification and the back-and-forth in Wayne County served as evidence of external influences. However, she highlighted that the most powerful influence came from the voters who calmly made their case for the validity of their votes, ultimately leading to the certification of Michigan's elections.
