DETROIT — Battles over voter registration, absentee ballots and election equipment are expected to intensify Tuesday in Michigan two years after supporters of former Republican President Donald Trump lodged a months-long campaign challenging the results of the presidential election.
Clerks, lawyers and poll challengers said they're ready for what lies ahead and have already begun to fight in court over election administration at the state and local levels.
Lawyers involved in defending against election litigation are warier of disruptions on Election Day and "frivolous post-election litigation" than they ever have been in the past, said David Fink, a Bloomfield Hills attorney who this year is defending the city of Detroit in pre-election suits.
