The investigation from Oct 2020 cites 42 suspected fraudulent Michigan voter registrations. Muskegon City Clerk Meisch stated several hundred were irregular but unverifiable info was removed, no absentee ballots/ registrations were issued, and no election impact occurred. https://www.wzzm13.com/article/news/politics/elections/police-investigating-after-muskegon-clerk-finds-irregularities-in-voter-registration-applications/69-569903d4-b0f0-43c4-acb5-ff96b7af9a9e https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2023/08/fact-check-michigan-police-do-not-find-tens-of-thousands-of-fake-voter-registration-applications.html

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1688993591681781760

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
