National and state Republicans have mounted a last-ditch effort to keep Michigan's Board of State Canvassers from certifying results from the presidential election

Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel speaks during a news conference. | Alex Brandon/AP PhotoNational and state Republicans have mounted a last-ditch effort to keep Michigan's Board of State Canvassers from certifying results from the presidential election.

"To simply gloss over these irregularities now without a thorough audit would only foster feelings of distrust among Michigan's electorate," the letter reads, echoing talking points from the Trump campaign. Republican U.S. Senate candidate John James also has requested a delay for similar reasons.

Shinkle said he couldn’t make a decision before seeing the Michigan Bureau of Elections report on the certifications from 83 counties.

Too much Trump Kool Aid! The con man and his lap dogs could care less about the US. They only care about disrupting the transition to a POTUS that really cares about the US and not himself. What a PATHETIC group of people!

GOP cheaters! CNN FoxNews

One vote,bla,bla,blaaa. 2 votes Blaa, Blaaa, Blaaa,

RNC is a joke. Liars and cheaters.

TimeforJoe

If the purpose it to strengthen the voting process fine. It doesn't appear to be that...

RNC chair trying to commit fraud just like Donald Trump. Felony

DrainTheSwamp of the corrupt Republicans. TrumpIsACriminal

202010Maria Ronna just anti American? Put her ass on a slow boat overseas!!

Unreal...GOP should never talk about upholding democracy. Embarrassing doesn’t begin to describe them

Please leave our country, your flight is waiting

ICYMI …

Shameful. What happened to ‘you lost- get over it’? Didn’t I hear that a lot 4 years ago? Then, the unsuccessful candidate conceded the night of the election. She didn’t try to subvert democracy.

Denial will endanger more Americans! STOP IT ALREADY!!

GOP leaders must be held accountable for their lack of integrity & their illegitimate acts to undermine the results of this election. As a lifelong R, I & many other Rs will never forget this shameful behavior. How can I support GOP when RNC leaders are attacking our Democracy!

Won’t work

These people are vile. The GOP has become uniquely unamerican.

The RNC Chairman is a Trumper and has no honor or integrity. Trying to change the will of the majority of voters in parts of Michigan. It's election interference for loser Trump.

Get ready for the riots.

What a travesty

👎🤥

Someone needs to tell her to pause on eat the bon-bon

Power hungry GOP once again puts party over country. Hope these traitors all get voted out

Nothing but FELONY election tampering.

So they visit with Trump and now this? What did he promise then?

The Republican Party is pushing hard to suppress the voice/choice of American voters, SHAME. Horrific to see their conscious decision to damage the electoral process, these actions have consequences, this must stop. Ethical GOP leaders, where are you?

The attempted coup continues

If they pause certification then have them arrested for treason.

Joeleen72255925 This is an attack on our democratic process, so it’s illegal. And it’s sedition. CountryOverParty RepublicansAreDestroyingAmerica Shame

Can we sue them for the turmoil they are causing in this country? A class action lawsuit representing the nearly 80 million people who voted for Biden and those who didn’t but are ready to move on from the ridiculous. 😡😡😡

Let them try. By the time realDonaldTrump is on the verge of what he thinks the moment he will go to heaven (he will be rejected at the door decisively) let’s remind him what a LOSER he has been and how history will mock him forever.

Trump is going around talking about how the democrats acted like he wasn’t a legitimate president. They never stopped certifications. They didn’t try to cheat. They just pointed out that Hillary got more popular votes and the Russians helped Trump, like through the air waves.

🤦🏻‍♂️

Do they need more time to subvert the will of the electorate?

Treason.

I don’t want to give it to him stop this nonsense

So the meeting (cough..payoff) with realDonaldTrump worked after all

The GOP really wants to do away with letting the people vote and decide.

This shit is so pathetic. I'm so embarrassed for my state, right now.

So many Trump suck-ups desperately trying to save their jobs knowing no one will hire them after Jan. 21.

I think it's time that voters file class action lawsuites against Republican party members that are trying to over turn election results. It's time to hold these people accountable and make them see there are consequences for trying to subvert democracy.

Damn they are the biggest sore losers.

No reason to.

What are the Vegas odds that when the Pubs go in to look at ballots again they find the exact box identified by 45 in the first five minutes?

First remember the Iowa caucus fiasco the MSM phony tricks against other dems candidates that Lil rat mike Bloomberg .. let's be honest, only a few genuinely love JoeBiden .. BernieSanders said Joe is unelectable , look Centrist French President Macron struggling so much

We have to understand that down ballot and state legislators must be fought for, not just President and US Congress.

This is why it is imperative that all who sought to overthrow the will of the American people R to be bought to trial. It is time to send a message with clarity that we will not be held hostage to a orchestrated coup by those in elected offices. BRING CHARGES & CONSEQUENCES.

I can hardly wait to hear of their decades long prison sentences Every crime investigated & prosecuted Every of day of sentences served, no paroles Every dollar pilfered, repaid with interest & penalties No mercy of ANY KIND The ONLY path to make sure NO ONE tries this again!

Keep in mind that this is over a discrepancy of 450 votes. Biden won Michigan by almost 150,000 votes. So this is just more manufactured drama to get more donations from the saps.

JoeBiden KamalaHarris are the right people to lead us. Now, begin turning the responsibility for delayed starts back on the incumbents, people need to know details of what delays will do. Their propaganda is powerful and must be countered. You/We deserve/need to success. 🇺🇸🙏

If it looks like a clown, same color as a clown, behaves like a clown, its a damn clown.

Losers getting desperate! Delicious maga tears

you know what fosters mistrust in the electorate? claiming voter fraud and voting 'irregularities' only in the places where the majority of the electorate is not White. SAD.

Nah, this is bullshit. Michigan voters have spoken, and we don't want Trump.

Another in a long list of republicans who should answer questions before a grand jury about their deceit, conspiracy and potential treason against the United States... they deserve no less.

I'm a moderate and can't find a single word, effort or action to say I could support or agree with, and for me, that's saying something! To think you stand in the shadow of our founders for democracy is delusional only because you haven't made it up to the sewer under that shadow

There is ZERO evidence of fraud, and yet GOPChairwoman is trying to delay, delay, delay. This anti-Americanism is disgusting. I hope when the GOP gets their shit together, they toss Rona and everyone else participating in this disturbing attack on our democracy.

Had enough?

She is talking about hijacking an election. This is treason!

Sounds like sedition

You left out the word 'steal' from your tweet.

Pathetic. If only they worked this hard on virus suppression.

Going forward, All Dems in Red States or Red Counties when Republicans win, just refuse to certify that election and lets tie it all up in court based on conspiracy theories and no facts. 2022 Midterm and Gubernatorial Strategy.

UGLY! Both her message and demeanor!

Sloppy ConcedeTrump

She’s repulsive.

Michigan stop being so stupid please.

Why don’t you ppl give it up! Trump lost! Everybody that’s pretending he didn’t knows. He lost b/c he’s a terrible person and a terrible president!

She needs to lose her post going all in on a cry baby’s baseless claim that he won the election. She is pretty dumb for this. Goes against Republican principles of democracy. Conspiracy theorists...

This girl afraid the buffet will be closed.

CRIMINALS!

How embarrassing for the United States. We tried to save face globally by kicking him out and the .GOP is continuing the clown show. Terrible for our country.

I can't believe judges have to listen to idiot Republicans with no evidence and only hearsay. Judges should tell them next one that comes into this court without evidence is going to jail for a few days.

Just certify the results let them keep going to court because really its hilarious; michigan minnesota eh whats the diff?

How do U think she kept her job after “huge win” by her boss? She’ll do whatever it takes to “STEAL THE VOTE” for her boss. Sorry cultists; I keep “stealing” ur line...haha. None of this bothers the GOP? No concern of any PATRIOTS on the Republican side as long as they get win?

This just in, Mitt Romney to request Ronna to legally remove the name “Romney” from Her name, cites concerns of the name being tied to the efforts to undermine democracy in favor of an wannabe authoritarian

The more American citizens vote the more the RNC and their henchmen will devise ways to suppress voting, especially opposition voting. Real American of you RNC. Your actions just drive more voting against you.

Here comes meatloafronna GOPChairwoman coming to subvert the will of the people again. Have you no decency GOP ? You know your realDonaldTrump cult leader Trumpito lost, and you choose to go down with him. Anti-American at the least, GOPTraitors at worst. RachelBitecofer

Biden won the popular vote by 5,000,000. In 2016 Trump LOST the popular vote. And in 2020 he LOST again. See a trend?

The GOP are criminals and racists

If there are concerns, they should be recognized, by either party. Always and without threats or harassment.

The American people have spoken! These Aholes are finished!

I guess when you have zero evidence, you write a strongly worded letter 🤷🏻‍♀️

let’s start calling things what they are 45 has staged a coup to overthrow democracy in the United States and when his followers act up, remember they are not militia they are white domestic terrorists

This is the narrative of the New Republican Party- gonna lie, cheat, name call, bully and arm twist- Never Vote Republican.

Fck these people. This is so treasonous

Michigan is smarter than your stupid games! They have laws!

Absurd...Why do they continue to disenfranchise the black vote. Election2020results

If they're Retrdlicans keep this up, they will lose Georgia

Assholes

Trump did not ask the GOP state legislators to 'swing the state in his favor.' He asked them to void the vote and steal the election. Be brave and call it what it is

Don't do it!

The Republican GOP is no longer the 'Grand Old Party' but the GOB 'Good Ole Boys'. A sad state of affairs.

Enough with this bullshit!

She is evil.

Until the GOP is 'Finally and Permanently Discredited and Abandoned ' ----

And Biden thinks he can work with these skid marks.

GOPChairwoman MichiganDems MIGOP realDonaldTrump GovWhitmer It's over Republicans -- Biden won and Trump lost -- this isn't much of a Hail Mary pass -- trying to take away votes from black people is racist, cowardly, unAmerican, unconstitutional, mean and stupid ...

The Republican Party has reached an “all time” low. Undermining the citizens of Michigan in an attempt to serve their lord Donald Trump. Honestly, without voter suppression, Republicans will always lose general elections.

Y'all okay? You need an intervention? Maybe a glass of wine and an aspirin. A line of coke. Not making sense here. So you want to make sure one whole segment of the pop is disenfranchised. Oh I get it! You're trying to force a race riot so Trump can send in the troops. Stop!!

Definitely, stalling is part of Trump's strategy to overturn the election. Throw up roadblocks. Complain. Pretend there is a controversy.

I wonder what they are trying to get done in 14 days. Why they need that time! Let's see, how many people will have to die or become homeless while they are playing the, 'Let's Stall' game. It's not just Blacks dying, hungry and homeless so Whites, they are sacrificing you too.

What we are witnessing is the GOP got beat even while cheating themselves in suppression of votes.They are in shock how Trump rattled the cage but had the opposite effect, The Voters stood up what they though would never happen. Engagement in record numbers.

I love it! Because of this continual etc.... Democrats will win the senate runoff’s 🤪🤪🤪🤪

Isn’t this election interference?
