A Michigan judge on Friday denied a request to block the certification of the election and to order an audit of the results in a lawsuit that alleged instances of voter fraud.
The lawsuit was brought by two poll challengers—Cheryl Costantino and Edward McCall—who are alleging that election officials allowed various fraudulent processing of votes, including telling poll workers to backdate ballots, not verify signatures on absentee ballots, ignore signature mismatches, and push through ballots despite questionable validity.
