100 Percent Fed Up Exclusive – In what can only be described as a historic election, MI GOP delegates wiped out decades of establishment rule yesterday at the GOP State Convention with their votes to elect Trump-endorsed election integrity candidates Kristina Karamo for Secretary of State and Constitutional Attorney Matt DePerno for Attorney General as their choice to run in the 2022 general election.
Over 2,000 GOP delegates and alternates gathered together today in Grand Rapids, MI, to cast critical votes for the next Republican Secretary of State and Attorney General candidates for the upcoming general election in November 2022. Both races were highly contentious, with two Trump-endorsed, grassroots election integrity candidates, Kristina Karamo for SOS and Constitutional Attorney Matt DePerno. Karamo and DePerno, two grassroots candidates with no political experience and limited campaign funds, ran against career politicians like Tom Leonard, who was showered with money and endorsements from establishment Republicans and anti-America First PAC money.
Over 2,000 GOP delegates and alternates gathered together today in Grand Rapids, MI, to cast critical votes for the next Republican Secretary of State and Attorney General candidates for the upcoming general election in November 2022. Both races were highly contentious, with two Trump-endorsed, grassroots election integrity candidates, Kristina Karamo for SOS and Constitutional Attorney Matt DePerno. Karamo and DePerno, two grassroots candidates with no political experience and limited campaign funds, ran against career politicians like Tom Leonard, who was showered with money and endorsements from establishment Republicans and anti-America First PAC money.
Constitutional Attorney Matt DePerno ran against the popular former Speaker of the House Tom Leonard and MI State Representative Ryan Berman. In the first round of voting, DePerno came in just under the 50% threshold needed to win the election on the first ballot. He was forced into a runoff with second-place Leonard after Berman conceded and threw his support behind Leonard. Even with Berman’s delegates getting behind Leonard, he still lost to Trump-endorsed Matt DePerno, who walked away victorious with just under 54% of the vote in the runoff election.
DePerno made the following statement after winning the runoff vote:
“Today marks the first step towards taking back our state and our country. I am eternally grateful to the freedom-loving patriots of the convention who put their trust in me to be their standard-bearer.
Together, we will create a red wave to wash over the Wolverine State this Fall!
My general election opponent, Dana Nessel, is a socialist Soros sycophant out of touch with Michigan voters. In November, she will be out of time as well.
I look forward to continuing to campaign across the state.”
Michigan GOP delegates also sent a strong message to the school boards at 3 major universities in Michigan when they elected anti-mask, anti-vaccine mandate, and anti-CRT candidates to serve on the boards of the increasingly liberal universities: Michigan State University, the University of Michigan, and Wayne State University.
The attacks from the media were swift, labeling Kristina and Matt “conspiracy theorists” and “election deniers.” BuzzFeed, the first publication to push the fake Russian dossier, attempted to paint Kristina Karamo as someone pushing fake conspiracy theories because she believes there was massive voter fraud in the 2020 election. |
