NJ Man Secures Nearly 1 Million Detroit 2020 Election Records Through FOIA Lawsuit

A New Jersey resident has obtained nearly one million documents from Detroit’s 2020 election following a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit. The records, provided by the City of Detroit and Wayne County, include absentee ballots, signed ballot envelopes, ballot applications, voter files, and precinct tabulation tapes.

 

Yehuda Miller initially had his FOIA request denied. After retaining an attorney and filing suit, he won access to the materials before the federal 22-month retention deadline for election records expired. Election integrity investigators in Michigan are now reviewing the documents.

Miller told The Gateway Pundit that he had previously been “non-political” but became engaged after the 2020 election. He said the contested results and a lack of transparency from election officials in key swing states motivated him to investigate further.

This release follows an earlier set of Wayne County records he obtained. Observers have described the haul as among the largest election FOIA releases in U.S. history.

Investigators are expected to focus on the accuracy of precinct reports, out-of-balance precincts, and other disputed areas from the 2020 election. The collection also includes details on election-night ballot deliveries and associated surveillance footage, which could provide additional context for the timing and handling of ballots.
