Pro-Trump activists could knock on your door asking questions about the 2020 election [View all]

Conservative activists are knocking on doors across Michigan to hunt for evidence of “ghost votes” and other alleged “anomalies” used to re-litigate the 2020 election.

A spokesperson for the Michigan Secretary of State said residents have no obligation to answer questions about how they voted and pointed to 250 statewide audits that affirmed President Joe Biden’s victory. Organizers with Election Integrity Fund and Force said the door-to-door canvassing effort, announced at a Tuesday rally outside the state Capitol, is modeled after a similar attempt in Arizona to discredit the 2020 election.

“The people of Michigan spoke clearly and unequivocally last November,” said Tracy Wimmer, spokesperson for the Michigan Department of State. “Any effort to violate citizens’ privacy or intimidate them by showing up at their doorstep demanding to know how they voted is a desperate attempt to further sow seeds of doubt about election results that were a secure and accurate reflection of the will of the voters.”

Organizers said volunteers are already visiting homes in Oakland and Macomb counties. County Clerks for both counties could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
