Mystery Swirls Over Batch of Thousands of 2020 Voter Registration Forms in Michigan

Numbers reveal that there were thousands more people that filed voter registration forms with the Muskegon, Michigan City Clerk’s office than there were unregistered voting age people in the 2020 presidential election. And at least 10,500 forms were filed by a single individual.

Two weeks before the 2020 election, a woman dropped off more than 10,000 voter registration forms with a city clerk in Muskegon, Michigan.

The number of forms was a red flag for the city clerk, Ann Meisch. Fewer than 4,000 of the city’s voting-age residents weren’t already registered to vote.
