Republicans want to win back swing state Michigan by hook or by crook | Judd Legum

Efforts are under way to undermine democracy in Michigan, for the benefit of Republican minority rule

Donald Trump lost Michigan by more than 150,000 votes in the 2020 presidential election. But the state still featured prominently in the false claims of election fraud pushed by Trump and his allies.

Two days after the election, Trump addressed the nation and delivered a litany of inaccurate allegations about vote-counting in Michigan.
