Kenneth Chesebro, who pleaded guilty in Georgia, is expected to meet with investigators in Arizona as well.
- Kenneth Chesebro, a lawyer who helped orchestrate the fake electors plot to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 election win, is cooperating with Nevada investigators in hopes of avoiding prosecution.
