- Hi there! 👋 Ingham County Clerk Barb Byrum, here. To all of those calling for a change of candidacy in the Presidential Race, please note that the election administration community is going to have some serious issues with that. 🧵
- Hi Senator! 👋 Ingham County Clerk Barb Byrum here. I’m surprised we have not crossed paths before given how much is wrong with your statement on Senate Bill 603 and the recent court rulings, but I am always excited to meet new people… 🧵Well, it’s official. The Michigan Democrat party and controlled legislature are all in to steal elections this cycle. The Democrats just passed a law eliminating the board of Canvassers ability to investigate fraud in elections. Their bill also strips the board of their subpoena

- Hello. 👋 Yes, please see below. 🧵Hey Barb, can you explain why michigan has more registered voters than we have of voting age population???
- Replying to @BarbByrumIt would also give ammunition to a candidate who hasn’t been shy about spreading disinformation about the validity of election results and give the opportunity to further erode the public’s trust in our elections process. And I will not stand for that.
- Replying to @BarbByrumFirst of all, and this really couldn’t be less important, but we are the Democratic Party, not the Democrat Party. It’s never been more fitting than now, as we appear to be the only major political party that supports Democracy.
- Replying to @BarbByrumSpeaking about that bill where we’re stripping investigative authority: We aren’t eliminating the State or County Boards of Canvassers from investigating alleged fraud, we’re simply putting it in the hands of ACTUAL INVESTIGATORS.
- Replying to @BarbByrumAverage people don’t want to hear about this election misinformation, they don’t need this kind of inflammatory rhetoric. So I have this advice for you Jim: Put down the Kool-Aid. It’s better for everyone.
- Replying to @BarbByrumWe aren’t trying to steal elections by passing new legislation, Jim. We’re trying to clean up from 38 years of Republican control which led to a lot of outdated election statutes.
- Replying to @BarbByrumTo be clear, Michigan wouldn’t even be the worst of the problems. Our statute requires that a major party’s Presidential and Vice Presidential Candidates be certified to the State within one business day of that party’s national or state convention, whichever is later.
- Replying to @BarbByrumCounty Prosecutors and the Attorney General. These are the folks who actually do this for a living.
- Replying to @BarbByrumIt is worth pointing out that even if Democrats follow the strictures of the law state-by-state, you would almost assuredly see lawsuits flying fast and often in any number of states, if they attempt to make a change.
