Trump Campaign Lawsuit Challenges Dominion Voting Machine Counts in Michigan

“…The lawsuit cites the well-publicized incident in Antrim County of a Dominion Voting machine mistakenly counting thousands of extra votes for former Vice President Joe Biden instead of President Donald Trump.

The lawsuit asks that campaign challengers be physically present to observe and confirm the accuracy of the equipment Wayne County used to tabulate the votes on Election Day.

“[B]allots that were tabulated with defective or malfunctioning tabulating machines or software must be excluded from the tally or hand-counted to confirm they are accurately counted and may be included in any certified canvass,” the lawsuit reads.

In a statement, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said the issue was an “isolated user error” and the result of a failure to update the media drives for the vote tabulators.

But the Trump campaign was not satisfied with Benson’s explanation.

“Her statement failed to provide any coherent explanation of how the Dominion Voting Systems software and vote tabulators produced such a massive miscount,” the lawsuit reads.

Wayne County, which includes the city of Detroit, uses the same Dominion voting tabulating system, according to the Trump campaign.

“We want to make sure that no vote tally includes fraudulently or unlawfully cast ballots, ballots tabulated by the Dominion tabulating software until that software is validated, and that any ballots received after election day both potentially postdated or predated, need to be reviewed before that time,” Trump Campaign General Council Matt Morgan, said in a call with reporters…”
