During a procedural hearing that was supposed to focus on whether Benson had a stake in the election lawsuit, DePerno alleged a team of Trump-aligned investigators had found significant errors during a recent review of 22 voting machines in the county.
Last week, Elsenheimer a Republican who served in the state Legislature in the late 2000s approved a request from Bailey s team for an injunction. He ordered Antrim County to preserve and protect machines for forensic images and/or other information gleaned from the forensic investigation.
DePerno did not provide any of this evidence during the hearing, saying the results of the review are preliminary. The only specific allegations he mentioned involved voting machines having unsecured data ports or not having magnetic security tape.
