Disputed Fact
Only 3 of the “64 lawsuits” featured any discovery that would provide plaintiffs with access to materials otherwise not available to the general public. Of those 3, only 1 (Bailey v Antrim County) offered any substantive discovery. Notably, in his oral opinion that closed the case, Judge Kevin Elsenheimer specifically stated: “By deciding this motion, the Court is not saying that there were no problems in the way that Antrim County conducted its November 2020 elections. The Clerk has admitted that there were challenges and problems in the elections. ” This statement by Judge Elsehheimer indicates that discovery did reveal evidence of election malfeasance. He dismissed the case on the basis that the remedies sought had been satisfied not on the basis that there was no evidence as some have attempted to portray.
