The Michigan Board of State Canvassers will meet today to start the process for a partial recount of the votes cast for two ballot proposals

The recount request appears to be an effort to cast doubt on the reliability of voting machines by the group Election Integrity Fund and Force. The organization was also engaged in efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Michigan.

This time, they’re challenging the results of Proposals 2 and 3, which enshrined voting rights and abortion rights in the state constitution. Election Integrity Fund and Force has to pay the full cost of the recounts.

Due to the margin of the vote and the relatively small number of precincts, the recounts are almost certainly not going to change the fact that both proposals were adopted by voters.
