As swing state Michigan approaches an election in which it could play a pivotal role, new data from its Aug. 4 primary reveals that in 72 percent of Detroit's election precincts, recorded ballot counts for absentee voters did not match the number of ballots actually cast.
"The people of Michigan deserve to know that their elections are being conducted fairly and competently, but today's news shows that Wayne County and the City of Detroit can't conduct an election to even the most basic of standards," Laura Cox, chairwoman of the Michigan Republican Party, said Thursday, according to the Detroit News.
