SOS Benson Critical of Weekend Protesters Outside Her Home

LANSING (WOOD-AM) - Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson called the pro-Trump group that was protesting outside her home on Saturday "unambiguous, loud and threatening."

In a statement, she said they arrived as she was hanging holiday decorations with her child.

"The individuals gathered outside my home targeted me as Michigan’s chief election officer," Benson tweeted. "But their threats were actually aimed at the 5.5 million Michigan citizens who voted in this fall's election, seeking to overturn their will."

The protesters were reportedly chanting "stop the steal" and "we want an audit" in reference to last month's election.
