Michigan widens investigation into voting system breaches by Trump allies

One official tells investigators he gave two vote tabulators to a third party' who kept them for several weeks in early 2021

State police in Michigan have obtained warrants to seize voting equipment and election-related records in at least three towns and one county in the past six weeks, police records show, widening the largest known investigation into unauthorized attempts by allies of Donald Trump to access voting systems.

The previously unreported records include search warrants and investigators' memos obtained by Reuters through public records requests. The documents reveal a flurry of efforts by state authorities to secure voting machines, poll books, data storage devices and phone records as evidence in an inquiry launched in mid-February.
