Michigan Election Board Orders Election Data Wiped

We have all seen some pretty crazy things during this election cycle, but this one seems to take the cake.

The Michigan Board of Electors (BOA) has ordered all election devices to be wiped clean of election data.

In part, a memo was issued that stated, “The EPB software and associated files must be deleted from all devices by the seventh calendar day following the final canvass and certification of the election (November 30, 2020) unless a petition for recount has been filed and the recount has not been completed, a post-election audit is planned but has not yet been completed, or the deletion of the data has been stayed by an order of the court or the Secretary of State.”

The board falls under the purview of Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, who is a Democrat.

In addition to the alleged problems during the election, an order had already been issued by local legislators to protect the data until all legal challenges have played out, an order that seems to have fallen on deaf ears, which has infuriated local Republicans.

State Rep. Matt Hall and state Senator Ed McBroom, the respective chairman of their respective oversight committees, are now leading the charge to expose the order given by the BOE.

Hall, in pointing to the previous directive given to preserve the data, stated, “Because of that inquiry, Detroit city clerk and BOE offices were directed to preserve certain materials, including relevant electronic information. The inquiry also demands all surveillance video recordings that were taken at the TCF Center in Detroit from Nov. 3-5 be kept.”

Hall added, “Our work is about restoring confidence in our elections process. We are making sure that we have access to relevant and needed information as the Legislature performs its inquiry into what happened and that the information hasn’t been deleted in the face of that inquiry and litigation that is still out there.

“It is concerning this memo went out after a letter was delivered asking these entities to preserve evidence. As a result, we want an assurance that this information is being preserved.”

Again, if Democrats had nothing to worry about, why work so hard to hide this evidence? They continue to raise far more questions with their actions than they do answers.
