Trump Calls Out Michigan Secretary of State for Misprinting Ballots for Overseas Troops; Guess Who Endorsed Her?

Trump is calling out Michigan’s Secretary of State, Jocelyn Benson for purposefully misprinting hundreds of ballots to be sent to overseas military members. The Biden supporter printed ballots showing Jeremy Cohen as Trump’s running mate. Cohen is actually running for vice president in the Libertarian party alongside Jo Jorgensen. Benson completely left off Mike Pence from the ticket.

Benson endorsed Joe Biden’s bid for president and even spoke about the safety and reliability of mail-in voting at the 2020 Democratic National Convention.

“And let’s be clear: there is absolutely zero difference between voting by mail and voting absentee. Millions of Americans have been voting absentee for decades. Donald Trump, his family, his staff — they all vote by mail. In fact, in states like Colorado, Utah, and Oregon voters have been voting by mail for years. Republicans and Democrats agree: it is safe,” she said at the DNC.

Trump has been critical of how the massive increase of vote-by-mail ballots may impact the accuracy of the election, and Benson’s mistake shows exactly why.

According to the secretary of state’s office, “replacement” ballots have been sent out to those “Michigan residents living abroad under Military and Overseas Empowerment (MOVE) Act.”

“If a voter does happen to return the incorrect ballot instead of the correct ballot, it will still count,” said Tracy Wimmer, a spokesperson for Benson. “The clerk will be instructed to duplicate a vote for Trump onto a ballot for Trump/Pence.”

Joe Biden also endorsed Benson’s bid for secretary of state in 2018. 

Biden said, “Jocelyn is a leader who will make Michigan proud, and that is why I am supporting her.”
