After each election, a county Board of Canvassers reviews all the data and ballot counts from election day, early voting and absentee voting to confirm that the tabulator vote totals match the number of voters who cast a ballot.  Watch this 1-minute video here.  The League of Women Voters and our democracy partners will be observing the Boards of Canvassers in all  83 Michigan counties and confirming that this piece of the election protection system, a minesterial job, is completed and that each county eventually certifes the election.   
 


National popular vote logoLWVMI SUPPORTS NATIONAL POPULAR VOTE

The National Popular Vote(NPV) guarantees that the electoral college and the presidency will be won by the candidate who wins the most popular votes in all 50 states and DC. When enacted, NPV will apply the concept of “one person, one vote” to our presidential elections, making every voter politically relevant in every presidential election for the first time.  LWVMI supports House Bill 4156 and Senate Bill 126, which would add Michigan’s 15 electoral votes to a growing number of states supporting National Popular Vote.
