Chris Thomas, the top election official on the floor of the Detroit TCF Center in the 2020 General Election, claimed in an affidavit that no valid challenges were refused or ignored by Detroit election workers. The TCF center was where absentee ballots were tabulated. Yet, according to “TCF Timeline,” a report detailing the lawless and fraudulent behavior that occurred at the TCF center, not only were valid challenges routinely refused by poll workers and supervisors, Thomas himself is alleged to have refused the challenge of a group of several thousand ballots. This challenge was deemed valid by a GOP election lawyer (G. Kline Preston), who assisted the GOP challenger (Jason Humes).
