HOUGHTON After a meeting that saw numerous residents voicing concerns about the 2020 election, the Houghton County Board voted unanimously Tuesday to request the state Senate Oversight Committee investigate the still unsubstantiated claims of election hacking popularized by MyPillow CEO and Trump supporter Mike Lindell.
In March, Vice Chair Tom Tikkanen had suggested the county hire independent third-party internet experts to investigate claims of vote-switching included in a Lindell documentary. The idea was not taken up, as multiple board members said there was not enough evidence.
Tuesday’s motion was not on the agenda, but was made at the end of the meeting by Commissioner Glenn Anderson. He remains opposed to Lindell, who he repeatedly called “Pillow Man” at the March meeting. But the Senate committee has more resources to investigate than the county ever will, he said.

As a principal real estate developer in the Dillsburg area for many years, Harry Fox has no doubt experienced a good share of opposition and disagreement concerning his various subdivision and land development projects.
As a former Franklin Township Supervisor (1980-1997), I can attest to that fact first hand. However, it is also my personal opinion that he worked in cooperation with both the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors to ultimately achieve board approval for his plans within the guidelines of existing local ordinances, plus any applicable county and state laws at the time.
