An error in the unofficial results from a Michigan county was caused by accidental human error, Michigan Department of State reports
The erroneous reporting of unofficial results from Antrim County in Michigan on Friday was a result of “accidental error on the part of the Antrim County Clerk,” according to a statement released by the Michigan Department of State.
