Top Wayne County Democrats call for independent audit of convention

Lansing — Two of Wayne County's top elected officials have joined a chorus of Democrats calling for an independent audit of the party's April 19 convention voting results.

In a letter to the party leadership Wednesday, Kym Worthy, Wayne County's prosecutor, and Warren Evans, Wayne County's executive, endorsed a request to have an outside group examine the vote from the gathering where Democrats selected candidates for attorney general, secretary of state and board positions at the state's three largest universities.

Evans cited "mounting evidence from delegates who attest that their votes were either not counted at all or others who attest that they voted remotely in violation of party rules."

"In sorting this out, the party’s appeals committee must be fully transparent to give confidence in the process," the county executive said in the new letter.
