Michigan Begins Passing Election Integrity Bills: 'A Lot of Things We Need to Change'

Michigan state Rep. Matt Hall told The Kyle Olson Show this week the legislature began passing bills intended to restore integrity to the election process.

Hall said there were concerns even before the election.

"The Michigan auditor general found that there were many people across our state who were over 120 years old, which is longer than the oldest living person and we found there's over 300,000 people who were inactive voters who haven't voted in over 20 years," he said.

Hall said Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson knew those facts but still sent out "Millions of unsolicited absentee ballot applications to this inactive voter list." However, Hall insisted "We knew the list was inaccurate."

He said he concluded after holding a series of hearings that "There's a lot of things that we need to change in our election law in Michigan."

While Republicans control the legislature, Hall said he has to remind constituents who are concerned about this issue that the state elected Democrats as governor, attorney general, and secretary of state, and in 2020, Democrats gained the majority on the state Supreme Court.

"What we've seen during the pandemic and also through the election is that these Democrats will just exceed their authority. I mean, they'll just break laws and if you don't have judges that will defend the laws, that's how we get in this situation," Hall told The Kyle Olson Show.
