Mark Forton, Chairman of the Macomb County Republican Party, says the people of Michigan “known darn well that they won this election, and it’s just plain terrible what’s going on in this country.”

Forton says he, like many, was appalled to see the vote count stop in his state on election night, only to report a statistically improbably spike for Biden the next morning. Then he saw it had also happened in other states. Other Michigan citizens feel similarly, and many joined a Trump Caravan Rally on Dec. 18 in support of President Donald Trump and his efforts to shed light on the election irregularities and widespread fraud allegations.

Similar grassroots protests have been taking place since the general elections, in all 50 states across the nation. 

“Overwhelmingly, Michigan voted for Trump overwhelmingly. Around midnight or so, Trump was ahead over 300,000 votes, when four years ago, he won Michigan by 10,000 votes,” Forton said.

“Stopping their count at midnight, and all this kind of nonsense going on. It’s unacceptable, and we’re not accepting it. And we never will,” Forton said.
