Michigan lawmakers rejected Trump after a White House meeting

Members of the Michigan state legislature who met with President Donald Trump in the White House on Friday evening said they “still don’t know any information that would change the outcome of the Michigan election.” Michigan lawmakers — invited by the president to visit the White House — said nothing to suggest that they would go along with Trump’s long-running effort to cancel the election results he lost against President-elect Joe Biden. . “As leaders of the legislature, we will continue to legislate and follow the normal process for Michigan voters, as we said during this election,” said Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey and Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield in a joint statement after the meeting. A well-known person at Friday’s meeting said the session was polite as the group explained to the president the process of securing elections and appointing voters to their state. “The certification process in Michigan should be a deliberate and fearless process,” lawmakers said in their statement. “Allegations of fraudulent conduct should be taken seriously, if properly examined and proven, they should be judged to the extent of the law. And the candidates who win the most votes win the election and the Michigan election. These are the only truths that should give confidence. Trump did not put any apparent pressure on lawmakers from Biden to change voters or prevent them from securing a vote, the person who knew the meeting said, but the president appeared interested in the explanation provided by lawmakers. # 2020 Elections # CNN # News.
