Today, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson issued the following statement regarding allegations that four Macomb County voters illegally cast two ballots in the August Primary:
"I'm grateful to the Macomb County clerk for his partnership in ensuring that voter fraud is rare and that when it happens, we catch it and prosecute it to the fullest extent of the law. Thanks to our partnership and commitment to security, he followed the protocols we have in place, and I have now referred the matter to the Michigan Attorney General for further investigation and potential criminal charges."
