GOP pick for Michigan AG linked to voting machine scheme

Michigan's Democratic attorney general is calling for a special prosecutor to investigate her Donald Trump-backed challenger after finding evidence linking him to a potentially criminal plot to seize and tamper with voting machines used in the 2020 election, according to a letter obtained by CNN and documents released Monday by the attorney general's office.
For months, the Michigan State Police and the attorney general's office have been investigating a series of voting machine breaches that took place in several counties around the state last year. According to the documents released, that probe has led investigators to Kalamazoo-based lawyer Matthew DePerno, a Republican candidate running against incumbent Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel.
