Michigan Republican Party co-chair Meshawn Maddock said at a recent event that former President Donald Trump's campaign encouraged the effort by Republicans in Michigan to submit a document saying Michigan's 16 Electoral College votes should go to Trump, according to audio obtained by CBS News.
Maddock was one of 16 Republicans who signed the document in December 2020. Her comments, made at a conservative gathering last week, were first reported by CNN.
"We fought to seat the electors," Maddock said, referring to efforts after the 2020 election by her and her husband, state Representative Matt Maddock. "The Trump campaign asked us to do that. I'm under a lot of scrutiny for that today."
