Statement of Secretary Benson on criminal election fraud charges filed against seven St. Clair Shores residents by Michigan Attorney General

"Today, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson made the following statement regarding the Attorney General’s announcement that she is filing criminal election fraud charges against four voters and three deputy clerks for incidents of alleged double voting in St. Clair Shores for the August Primary Election:"

 

“Voting more than once is illegal. Anyone who tries to vote multiple times in an election will get caught and they will be charged.

 

“We will watch closely to see how the facts bear out in this case. But anyone who thinks they can get away with voting fraud in Michigan should know we will not tolerate any attempt to interfere in our elections.

 

“I am grateful for the bipartisan, professional election administrators all across Michigan who work hard daily to ensure we count every valid vote, and only valid votes. Our team will continue to work alongside them to prepare for November.”
