MICHIGAN — A Wayne County judge has rejected a lawsuit that aimed to stop the certification of Detroit-area election results.
Wayne County Judge Timothy Kenny on Friday rejected the lawsuit, which in part, took issue with the city's handling of absentee ballots.
"Plaintiff's interpretation of events is incorrect and not credible," Kenny wrote in his ruling.
Numerous affidavits from election challengers "paint a picture of sinister fraudulent activities occurring both openly in the TCF Center and under the cloak of darkness," Kenny said.
But those claims are contradicted by Christopher Thomas, a highly-respected former state elections director who spent hours at the center and presented different accounts.
