A Wayne County judge has denied a request Monday to change Detroit’s absentee voting processes ahead of Tuesday’s election, ruling that all of the claims advanced in a lawsuit filed by GOP Secretary of State candidate Kristina Karamo were “unsubstantiated and/or misinterpret Michigan election law.”
Additionally, the plaintiffs’ initial request to have Detroiters vote in person or obtain an absentee ballot in person is a “clear violation” of constitutional rights to vote absentee in person or by mail, Wayne County Circuit Court Chief Judge Timothy Kenny ruled Monday.
Kenny not only denied a request for a preliminary injunction but dismissed the complaint altogether, calling it a “false flag” that sought to “demonize” Detroit election workers.
“While it is easy to hurl accusations of violations of law and corruption, it is another matter to come forward and produce the evidence our Constitution and laws require,” Kenny wrote. “Plaintiffs failed, in a full day evidentiary hearing, to produce any shreds of evidence.”
