Michigan Reopens Case Against Fake Electors [View all]

“The Michigan attorney general said Friday there’s ‘clear evidence’ to pursue charges against pro-Donald Trump Republicans who claimed they were the state’s presidential electors in 2020, despite Democrat Joe Biden’s 154,000-vote victory,” the AP reports.

“Dana Nessel referred the matter to federal prosecutors last year, but no public action has been taken. A year later, she said it’s time for state authorities to step in.”

Detroit Free Press: “The fact Nessel announced her decision on the two-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is not an accident. She’s repeatedly argued the effort of the so-called ‘fake electors’ in late 2020 was part of a much broader scheme to overturn President Joe Biden’s lawful victory.”
