A Michigan county has hired Genevieve Peters — a 'Stop the Steal' ringleader who urged protestors to 'move forward' on Jan. 6 — to recruit poll workers in one of the state's biggest swing regions.
That Peters is playing a pivotal role in Macomb’s elections office illustrates how successfully some Trump loyalists and election deniers have found their ways into official party and government roles. Macomb is Michigan’s third-most populated county. Before voting for Trump by wide margins in 2016 and 2020, Macomb had for decades served as a national barometer for the national political landscape. In 2008, Barack Obama won Macomb by the largest margin for any Democrat since 1964.
The battle for Michigan’s Legislature is considered among the most important in the nation by nonpartisan elections experts concerned about how state legislatures could try to assert more control in the next presidential election. In 2020, Trump hosted members of the Michigan Legislature in the Oval Office as he sought to stop certification of the states’ electoral votes for Joe Biden.
Rollow, the secretary of state spokesman, said the state “will not tolerate any breach” of state voting laws and “will seek full accountability for anyone who abuses their authority or interferes with the integrity of our elections.” “We are letting her know that we’re not taking this bullshit election, we are not standing down, we are not giving up. You are not going to take this election from a man that has earned it completely 100 percent by a freaking landslide.
