An Arizona grand jury charged top 2020 Trump campaign aides and lawyers alongside 11 so-called “fake electors” on Wednesday over their efforts to alter the outcome of the 2020 presidential election in the state.
The indictment lists the 11 fake electors, but redacted the names of seven other individuals who were indicted following the investigation led by Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D).
The Washington Post reported the names of those seven individuals as “former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, attorneys Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, John Eastman and Christina Bobb, top campaign adviser Boris Epshteyn and former campaign aide Mike Roman.”
The felony charges stem from the 11 Trump supporters gathering at the Arizona GOP’s headquarters following the 2020 election to sign fraudulent certifications claiming to be Arizona’s 11 official electors to the Electoral College, with the intent that their votes would eventually be counted for Donald Trump.
“They are accused of allegedly aiding an unsuccessful strategy to award the state’s electoral votes to Trump instead of Biden after the 2020 election,” the Post added.
“In Arizona, and the United States, the people elected Joseph Biden as President on November 3, 2020,” the indictment reads.
“Unwilling to accept this fact, Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizona’s voters,” it continued, referring to Trump. “This scheme would have deprived Arizona voters of their right to vote and have their votes counted.”
Ex-Arizona Republican Party chairwoman Kelli Ward is among those charged for her role as a fake electoral. Politico’s Kyle Cheney noted that Trump himself is listed as an unindicted co-coconspirator.
Mayes released a video with the indictment.
“We conducted a thorough and professional investigation over the past 13 months into the fake electors scheme in our state. I understand for some of you today didn’t come fast enough. And I know I’ll be criticized by others for conducting this investigation at all. But as I’ve stated before, and we’ll say here again, today, I will not allow American democracy to be undermined.”
ALL for politics & Power since they Fear Trump
Arizona now has a new label of being the most evil state ever.
The communists have taken over the “legal” system and are persecuting everyone they can.
Arizona must be jealous of New York, and feels the need to upgrade its totalitarian credentials.
John F Kennedy did the same thing against Nixon. NO INDICTMENT THEN!!!!!
There’s eye witness accounts of Democrats going into Native American reservations in AZ, in 2020, and offering the people gift cards in exchange for voting Democrat. If I know that, surly the kangaroos indicting these patriots know that too.
Steven Crowder had his cohorts go all over AZ looking for addresses that supposed citizens voted from, and all they found were vacant lots, public buildings, libraries, etc. Are these kangaroos looking into that?
