Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, a Democrat, challenged the validity of election fraud claims, saying in a post on Twitter that making a false claim of a crime is itself a crime and suggesting that awareness of potential criminal liability is the reason some of those making fraud allegations have not filed complaints with law enforcement.
Nessel was commenting on a message posted on Twitter by Charles Gaba, a health care analyst at ACASignups.net, who in a series of tweets was providing running commentary on Monday’s meeting of the Michigan State Board of Canvassers, which ultimately voted to certify the election results.
