Wayne County’s Board of Canvassers member Ned Staebler has admitted that only 72 percent of ballots in the county are re-countable but need to be certified first.

In a video posted on twitter, outraged Democrat Ned Staebler spoke on the board’s failure yesterday to certify county results. 

Instead of focusing on problematic tabulations Staebler bashed Republicans Monica Palmer and William Hartmann, labelling them racist. 

The two initially voted against certifying the vote. 

However, the board came back later rendering a unanimous decision to certify the vote despite  admitted human error in regards to the ballots. 

Widespread issues were reported in Wayne County and in Detroit specifically during the election. 

One City of Detroit employee reported in a sworn affidavit that she had been ordered to backdate ballots and that poll workers were openly advocating  for Democrats. 

The State Board of Canvassers will meet on Nov. 23 to vote on certifying the statewide results.
