Detroit Republican Vote Challengers Locked-out, Furious Over Lack of Access

Republican vote challengers at the TCF Center in Detroit were told by election officials that they could not reenter the room because it was over capacity.

Fox News Reports:

Michigan Trump Victory Deputy State Director Drew Thompson shared images on Twitter of the building’s doors, which were locked from inside by police.

“Detroit election officials are currently refusing to let the public observe the counting process at the TCF center,” Thompson wrote. “They have padlocked the doors. This is a disgrace to the democratic process.”

He shared video of the crowd outside the building chanting, “Let us in” as many remained outside.

President Trump’s team filed a lawsuit in Michigan, upon hearing that, protestors outside the facility chanted “Stop the Vote.”

“President Trump’s campaign has not been provided with meaningful access to numerous counting locations to observe the opening of ballots and the counting process, as guaranteed by Michigan law,” Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien said in a statement. “We have filed suit today in the Michigan Court of Claims to halt counting until meaningful access has been granted. We also demand to review those ballots which were opened and counted while we did not have meaningful access.”

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s press secretary, Ryan Jarvi, issued a statement Wednesday afternoon saying the department had not yet “been notified by the Court of Claims about this lawsuit.”

“Michigan’s elections have been conducted transparently, with access provided for both political parties and the public, and using a robust system of checks and balances to ensure that all ballots are counted fairly and accurately,” Javi added in the statement, which Nessel shared on Twitter. “When we are served, we will review it and respond accordingly. Michigan will always continue to protect the rights of all voters to have their ballots counted.”

As far as fair elections go, this one is not looking good.
