Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson recently attacked the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, labeling him an online “troll,” for highlighting an issue that’s fueling distrust and questions about transparency in the 2024 election.
“Michigan has more registered voters than eligible citizens!? Is that true @CommunityNotes?” Elon Musk posted to X, the social media site he owns.
The site’s fact checkers responded with a community note that asserts “Michigan plans to remove over 600,000 inactive voters by 2027.”
“The state currently has 8.4 million registered voters, according to the latest records obtained by Bridge Michigan, nearly 500,000 more than the number of people in the state who are old enough to vote,” the note read, linking to the Bridge Michigan analysis. Those facts were immediately countered with election misinformation from Benson, who twisted the data to fit her own narrative.
