Michigan Board of State Canvassers certify 2024 presidential election results

(CBS DETROIT) – The Michigan Board of State Canvassers has certified the state’s 2024 presidential election results. 
The board, comprised of two Republicans and two Democrats, voted unanimously on Friday to certify the results in all 83 counties.
Any candidate has until Nov. 25 to request a recount.  
“Our state and county canvassing boards have all fulfilled their lawful duty to certify the results of Michigan’s 2024 General Election,” said Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson in a statement. “Just over 5.7 million Michiganders cast ballots in this election, officially making this the highest turnout election in our state’s history. I am grateful for the dedication of the professional, bipartisan clerks and poll workers who once again ensured that the election was safe, secure, and that the results accurately reflect the will of the voters.” 
Officials results show President-elect Donald Trump winning the state with 49.7%, compared to Vice President Kalama Harris’ 48.3%. 
CBS News has projected Trump as the winner in each of the battleground states — first North Carolina, then Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada and finally Arizona — enough for a comeback victory after his 2020 loss.
Meanwhile, Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin was elected to the Senate over former Republican Rep. Mike Rogers, keeping Democrats in control of the U.S. Senate in Michigan. Democratic Sen. Gary Peters holds the other seat.
Four years ago, Trump and his supporters pressured election officials in the state’s largest county and on the state board to not certify the results of the 2020 election as part of his targeted efforts to overturn the election.
Trump personally pressured two Republican officials on the Wayne County Board of Canvassers that year to oppose certification. The county is home to Detroit, a stronghold of Democratic voters in the battleground state.
The state board of canvassers eventually voted to certify the 2020 election with one Republican board member abstaining at the time.
