In a significant development for election integrity, Michigan clerks are now required to verify signatures before counting mail ballots. This change comes after the GOP filed a lawsuit challenging the previous practice where clerks counted mail ballots without proof of signature verification. GOP Chairman Michael Whatley emphasized that this decision ensures every legal vote is counted and maintains the integrity of the election process. This is seen as a key win for the GOP.
