ADAMS TOWNSHIP, MI (WTVB) – A township clerk in Hillsdale County who had her November 2021 election responsibilities taken away by the Michigan Bureau of Elections lost a recall election on Tuesday.
Adams Township voters removed Stephanie Scott from the Clerks office as she was beaten by Suzy Roberts 406-214.
Scott ran as a Republican while Roberts was non partisan. Roberts will serve out the balance of the term which expires in November of 2024.
The Bureau of Elections said in October of 2021 Scott was removed from election duties after she failed to comply with legal requirements from the state to ensure the safety and security of the election.
Scott has expressed doubts about Donald Trump’s loss to Joe Biden in the 2020 General Election in Michigan and told the Detroit News at the time she had tussled with the state Elections Bureau over security concerns with the township’s tabulators.
