GET ME REWRITE: Trump fanboy gets the hook in Ottawa County Michigan

 

Photo credits:  Ottawa County

Headline:  mlive, 2/29/2024

The county commissioners fired him with cause Thursday night, Feb. 29. It was nearly a unanimous vote with the lone Democrat voting against the motion that ends Gibbs’ 14-month run as county administrator. 

Gibbs was placed on paid administrative leave last week after a closed-door meeting took place to discuss commissioner and county staff complaints allegedly made against him. 

Gibbs, a failed congressional candidate, was placed in the county administrator role in a surprise move last January by a newly elected board majority made up of members of an ultra-conservative group called Ottawa Impact.

Day 1220 of GOP election denier hysteria (Trump Big Lie Clown Show Circus, MAGA Shasta County California edition)

 

ATTACK Of the Clown Show zombies

Starring Shasta County 

election commission member Lisa Michaud

Headline:  KRCR, 2/27/2024

"As a commission, we are appointed to support the board of supervisors, and the board of supervisors voted, originally, to do a hand count [for elections]," explained Lisa Michaud, Vice-Chair of the Commission. "The idea is not [that] we're going to secretly do hand-counting; the idea is we're going to challenge that law that was passed to counter the resolution the board had passed earlier."  

The recommendation is predicated around a 19-point, mostly-subjective document, brought forth by commissioners Ronnean Lund and Bev Gray. Some of the listed points (shown below) include the "urgent need" to restore confidence in local elections, along with previous studies that allegedly show voter fraud in our country (i.e. Jeffrey O'Donnell's "Fingerprints of Fraud").
