Detroit had more vote errors in 2016 when Trump won Michigan by a narrow margin. He didn’t object then.

DETROIT — Republican Party leaders who are urging Michigan's state canvassing board to hold off certifying the Nov. 3 election results when it meets Monday have cited what they described as "significant problems and irregularities" in Wayne County, home of Detroit.

But state and county election data show that four years ago — when Donald Trump carried the state by a much narrower margin — twice as many Detroit precincts were out of balance.
