\nRepublican U.S. Senate candidate John James continued to rake in fundraising dollars in the weeks after losing the November election, including donations for a legal defense fund created as James cast doubt on election results.<\/strong><\/p>\n
New financial statements filed with the Federal Elections Commission on Thursday show James\u2019 campaign committee collected $2 million from Nov. 4 to Nov. 23, including $258,000 from donations in the week before Michigan\u2019s statewide results were certified. James unsuccessfully sought to delay the certification of results that showed he lost by 92,335 votes, citing unproven allegations of fraud.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Donations poured into James\u2019 campaign committee on and after Nov. 17, the day Wayne County election results were certified. The Wayne County Board of Canvassers was initially deadlocked 2-2 along party lines, but Republican canvassers later agreed to certify the results in exchange for an audit.<\/strong><\/p>\n
James celebrated the Wayne County board\u2019s initial decision to hold off on certifying the results, saying in a statement that the canvassers confronted \u201cinconvenient truths that threaten our democracy.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
James legal counsel Charles Spies urge the Wayne County Board of Canvassers and the Board of State Canvassers to postpone the certification of the results. Michigan\u2019s Board of State Canvassers certified statewide results from all 83 counties on Nov. 23.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The Farmington Hills businessman did not concede until three weeks after election results showed he lost to U.S. Sen. Gary Peters. James respectfully congratulated Peter for his victory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
