Rep. Rachelle Smit, the Speaker Pro Tempore of the Michigan House of Representatives, is a Republican from Allegan County on the west side of the Wolverine state. She was one of the few State Representatives nationwide endorsed personally by Donald Trump in the 2022 elections. Smit has been busy rising through the ranks of leadership in the Republican caucus. During her first term, the Republicans were in the minority by one vote, but now they have a 58-52 majority and Smit has been named the Chair of the Election Integrity Committee and the new Speaker, Matt Hall, has empowered the Oversight committee to coordinate with the Election Integrity Committee to issue legislative subpoenas.
Smit will work closely with Oversight Committee Chair Jay DeBoyer to investigate the many credible accusations of systemic voter fraud happening in Michigan since at least the contested 2020 election.
Smit shared with the Gateway Pundit some examples of key voter fraud throughout Michigan that she wanted to address and investigate because she has been convinced since election night 2020 that the election was stolen from President Donald Trump.
“Even though Trump won in 2024, doesn’t mean our elections are secure. We saw suspicious activity across the state. I think the margins of the wide support, the historic majority that Trump won, made it hard to cheat. As the campaign said, they made it ‘too big to rig’ but that means that we have this very limited time in order to fix these problems if we want to keep our democracy alive,” Chair Smit told the Gateway Pundit.
“Every day we let the lie continue that 2020 was a safe and honest election, we normalize the kind of systemic voter fraud that were documented with a thousand affidavits in Michigan, documented in dozens of video interviews, memorialized by hundreds of eyewitnesses, and that clearly appears in the absentee voter registration data, and the absentee ballot data from election day. I intend to investigate and build this record to make it clear what is going on in our election systems.”
Smit had previously been named as the Minority Vice Chair of the Elections Committee when Democrats were in power for the past two years. Now, Smit is the Chair of the Election Integrity Committee, a position given to her by the new Republican Speaker of the House, Rep. Matt Hall.
