Read full article: With Peters ahead, John James says โample evidenceโ for investigation, but offers noneMichigan U.S. Senate candidate John James, who is currently trailing Democratic Senator Gary Peters in the 2020 election, is calling for an investigation into votes. The Associated Press called the Senate race on Wednesday night for Democrat Gary Peters, who has a nearly 90,000 vote lead over James. In a statement Thursday, James said, โWhile Senator Peters is currently ahead, I have deep concerns that millions of Michiganders may have been disenfranchised by a dishonest few who cheat.โJames also said he will accept the results and the will of the people, โbut at this time there is enough credible evidence to warrant an investigation to ensure that elections were conducted in a transparent, legal and fair manner.โThe John James campaign has not offered any evidence to support a claim of cheating or evidence to support any investigation. Itโs also unclear what theyโre hoping to investigate, specifically. There is no evidence of any voter fraud or cheating tied to Michiganโs 2020 election.
