While refusals & delays of #certification have not held up in #court, in #Georgia & #Arizona, pro-#Trump local #ElectionOfficials are seeking to make #certification discretionary - lawsuits that are currently being decided by state judges — in order to give his campaign another method to challenge #election results in November.

At least 22 of these county #election officials have refused or delayed #certification in recent years.

When #election night comes in November, it will be up to thousands of local #ElectionOfficials to #certify election results in their counties. Among those election ofcls are scores of #Trump supporters who believe his #lies & #ConspiracyTheories about stolen elections - & will be in prime position to act on those beliefs to try to [illegally] aid his campaign in November.

The purge in Waterford went unnoticed by state #ElectionOfficials until The NYT discovered it. The #Michigan secretary of state’s office has since told the clerk to reinstate the #voters, saying the removals did not follow the process laid out in #state & #federal #law, & issued a warning to the state’s 1,600 clerks.
