Affidavits by the Republican canvassers say that they did not sign the certification of the vote coming out of Wayne County, Michigan pursuant to a contingent agreement to do so only if the vote were to be audited, which agreement was immediately violated by the Michigan Secretary of State, who indicated that there would be no such audit.
This was reported in a newsbreak near the end of the Shannon Bream program on Fox News --- thus far nothing on the internet.

UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "THIS JUST UP ON BREITBART NEWS" EDITION
The two Republican members of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers in Michigan have rescinded their votes to certify the election results. Both of them said on Wednesday that they were "bullied" into changing their original votes based upon promises that the vote would be audited; almost immediately, Michigan authorities stated that they did not intend to to conduct any audit based on any agreement by the Wayne County Board of Canvassers.
Breitbart News reported Tuesday that the Wayne County Board of Election Canvassers originally deadlocked 2-2 along partisan lines. Briefly, the Wayne County Canvassers failed to certify the results because of discrepancies between ballots and voter rolls. But after public abuse and threats, and with the video stream down, the two Republicans agreed to change their votes, saying they had been promised that state authorities would audit the results.
HERE IT IS STRAIGHT AND SIMPLE (from a Justthenews.com report quoted by Breitbart):
".... In an extraordinary turnabout that foreshadows possible legal action, the two GOP members of Wayne County’s election board signed affidavits Wednesday night alleging they were bullied and misled into approving election results in Michigan’s largest metropolis and do not believe the votes should be certified until serious irregularities in Detroit votes are resolved.... The statements by Wayne County Board of Canvassers Chairwoman Monica Palmer and fellow GOP member William C. Hartmann rescinding their votes from a day earlier threw into question anew whether Michigan’s presidential vote currently favoring Democrat Joe Biden will be certified. They also signaled a possible legal confrontation ahead....
Their pronouncements come just 24 hours after a chaotic meeting in which the county’s election board initially failed to certify the Nov. 3 election results during a 2-2 deadlocked vote when both Palmer and Hartmann voted against certification. But after hours of contentious public comment and criticism — including Democratic allegations of racism and threats against their safety — the two GOP members struck a deal to certify the elections in return for a promise of a thorough audit...."
