Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : "I think it is important to emphasize that if any individual believes a crime has been committed, or has evidence of a crime, the appropriate course of action is to report that possible crime to law enforcement - not to file documents in a civil case," said Amber McCann, a spokesperson for Nessel's office.
42% : Matthew DePerno, the Republican candidate for Michigan attorney general, says he presented evidence of illegal tampering with voting machines in Antrim County to Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel on Dec. 4, 2020, and she failed to act, a serious allegation that was not substantiated in a Free Press review of court filings or by law enforcement agencies that would typically review such criminal complaints.
42% : While the attorney general represented Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson in the case, making allegations in a civil legal proceeding is not the same thing as actually contacting law enforcement with evidence of a crime.
