Key Michigan Republican Won’t Delay Certification

“A Republican member of the board responsible for certifying Michigan’s election results signaled his intention to vote with Democrats on Monday, dealing a potential death blow to the Trump campaign’s attempt to delay official recognition of President-elect Joe Biden’s decisive victory in the state,” the New York Times reports.

Said board member Aaron Van Langevelde: “The law basically says we have a legal duty to canvass the returns. There is nothing in the law that gives me the authority to request an audit.”
