Michigan really needs to change its certification process

This is insane and bound for partisanship. Unfortunately, this isn’t the 60’s anymore where people weren’t as partisan

And as pointed out in many other threads, the State Board of Canvassers is essentially a rubber stamp outfit.

but I'd be thrilled if a deep level investigation was conducted by the Biden/Harris DOJ to REALLY see if there was enough collusion and interference with Russia to turn that election to Trump...and if so, that could potentially invalidate his entire presidency and, by extension, a lot of his appointees to courts and such.

Again...total pipedream as I think we'll be in such deep shit with Covid, political/civil unrest, economic implosion, and the increasing effects of climate change to spare any serious time for retroactive justice of that kind...but I can dream.
