    And the fact that they were not the only set of Republican "electors" to do this indicates that this was coordinated, meaning conspiracy.

    Some of them, but there are plenty on the left side too.

    But doesn't calling anything a conspiracy instantly discredit it?
    Sounds like a pretty solid theory...

    Was this the dumber than dumb crew that had gotten some kind of immunity?

    'Michigan attorney general charges fake Trump electors over alleged 2020 election crimes'
    Source: CNBC

    Michigan’s attorney general on Tuesday criminally charged 16 so-called “fake electors” for former President Donald Trump, accusing them of a fraudulent effort to reverse President Joe Biden’s victory in the state’s 2020 election.

    The 16 people each face eight charges, including conspiracy, election law forgery, and uttering and publishing, state Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a video announcement. Nessel called the alleged plan a “desperate effort” to “undermine democracy.” Several of the accused are active in Republican politics.

    Nessel has not ruled out potential criminal charges against additional defendants, her office said. The case is the first time that any members of fake Electoral College slates for Trump have been criminally charged.

    Nessel’s announcement also came hours after Trump said that Department of Justice special counsel Jack Smith has designated him a target in a federal criminal probe of attempts to undo the ex-president’s loss in 2020. Smith’s investigation is focused on, among other things, the attempted use of fake Electoral College slates to thwart Biden’s victory.'

    Wait. So there is the possibility of election fraud?


    http://politicalforum.com/index.php?posts/1073610535/


    It's so crazy. The left is so quick to tell us how safe our elections are when claims of fraud come up.

    Yet. When claims of fraud come up... suddenly it's news worthy.

    I wonder what switched? Oh. Wait. I know.

    Thanks for your honesty.

    This eludes so many on the forum.

    They should all be thrown in jail for a long time.

    Great link and story, but I'm going to post it in another thread, since yours may not make it long in Current Events...

    You have to post the thread title as your URL story.... and post some snips from the article and ask a question...

    But good catch...

    Yep.
    Maybe he can get a Mod to change the title?

    This Michigan news needs its own thread.

    Maybe we can add WI to the list.

    https://news.yahoo.com/wisconsins-top-elections-official-met-180213483.html
    Wisconsin’s top elections administrator on Tuesday became the latest official in a battleground state to say they have been interviewed by federal investigators as part of the special counsel's probe into the 2020 election.

    Conspiracy, by itself, isn't illegal.

    That sounds like turning something completely on its head and wrapping the bow with a supreme amount of irony

    Try them and throw them in prison. This is so much worse than anything done on 1/6 at the Capital

    It didn’t succeed - but how come you don’t know about the “Fake Electors”? Didn’t Faux mention them?

    Maybe when Trump sees a child he's going to try to nibble on her shoulder and get him a good taste?
