Macomb County Prosecutor announces no charges for double-voting accused due to lack of probable cause and no criminal intent.

Macomb County Prosecutor Pete Lucido announced that no charges will be filed against four Michigan residents accused of double-voting in the August 6 primary election, as his office found no probable cause for a crime. The individuals, who voted both by absentee ballot and in person, reportedly wanted to recast their vote and had no criminal intent. Election safeguards were found to be effective in detecting and preventing double voting, which is a felony in Michigan but rare due to robust systems in place.
