BREAKING: Michigan’s state Board of Canvassers votes to certify President-elect Biden’s win in the state.

President-elect Joe Biden, accompanied by Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, speaks about economic recovery on Nov. 16, 2020, in Wilmington, Del.The Michigan State Board of Canvassers voted Monday to certify the state's presidential election results, a victory forand a major blow to President Donald Trump's withering effort to contest the results.

The two Democrats on the four-member board were joined by one of its two Republicans to vote in favor of certification. The other Republican board member abstained. It comes as Trump's allies and lawyers had called for state legislatures, including Michigan's, to name Trump electors in. They have also made unfounded claims about irregularities and discrepancies in the vote tallies — singling out Wayne County, which includes Detroit and its large Black population.

Trump invited Republican state lawmakers from Michigan — state Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey and House Speaker Lee Chatfield — to the White House last week. Critics saw it as an attempt to influence the certification process, but the lawmakers said afterward that they were not"made aware of any information that would change the outcome of the election in Michigan."

In a joint statement issued after their approximately two-hour visit to the White House, the Michigan lawmakers said their position that the voters are the ones who pick the state's electors was unchanged.

Apparently, the GOPs exodus to PARLER has backfired. To see unbridled political plotting and propaganda is now leading to warp speed electoral certifications.

gtconway3d FredsFailure knows he can't stop PresidentElectBiden- he just wants to cut PresidentElectBiden 's EC count from 306 so ProudBoyTrump can say he 'beat' PresidentElectBiden.

Breonna Taylor protest leader (Travis Nagdy), is shot dead 'during carjacking' near University of Louisville campus. Travis Nagdy was 21.

It's sad to see such low integrity from those involved in the election process. Massive voter roll discrepancies but they certified? Right, right. Hopefully roles reverse in 2024

gtconway3d Of course they did!

gtconway3d Now the pardon 💩show begins.

Woo hoo!!! It's happening!!!!! 01-20-2021

A dementia patient is not a credible President

They think trump is working undercover for Biden now 😂😂

Sad. Our country is going to be hurt if Sleepy Joe gets elected.

Congratulations Its a great State.its time for you to realize you have to count on the CIA after Trump concedes (and that's all your allowed to do and choose military leaders for the intelligence positions not actors) And your Kamala Harris should be the one to invite you in.

The news is breaking realDonaldTrump's heart! To be American, Trump should come out and concedes election to respect the will of Americans.

Are any mainstream media organizations doing an in-depth investigation of Dominion?

I am ready for this fraudulent election to be over. Just put Biden in. It is going to happen anyway

👍🏽👍🏽

Congratulations!

Wow, for something that the trump camp are calling “just procedural” they sure put a lot of time and money into stoping certification of the result from happening!

Biden Wins Michigan. Again. ❤️❤️

Morning_Joe About F N time!

If realDonaldTrump parents were alive, they wouldn’t have voted for him either. SAD

Joe Biden cant' find his ass with both hands. He's a walking poster-boy for Assisted Living. It seems to me that abdicating responsibility as a POTUS would be grounds for immediate dismissal.
