electoral votes

Six of Michigan’s electors face felony charges for being so-called "fake electors" in 2020. So casting the electoral votes to send Trump back to the White House felt especially triumphant, they said.

Attorney General Dana Nessel is pushing ahead with prosecuting cases against Republicans who falsely claimed they were presidential electors following the 2020 election.

There’s “a certain irony, and a certain sense of satisfaction, and maybe a little vindication” that comes with this moment, said an attorney for one of the Michigan GOP electors.

Six of Michigan's so-called "fake electors," facing criminal charges for their roles in the 2020 election, have been nominated again as GOP electors for the state.

A report published Thursday by The Detroit News reveals emails that suggest former President Donald Trump’s campaign was behind the effort to file false certificates declaring he won Michigan’s 16 electoral votes in 2020.

A judge says two defendants accused of participating in a fake elector scheme will not have their charges dropped due to comments made by the Michigan attorney general.

“Let’s be fair about what this was: It was an effort to overturn a lawful election,” said Dana Nessel, a Democrat. “That type of activity can’t go without any consequences."
