Nevada Indicts Six 'Fake Electors' Who Falsely Certified Trump as 2020 Winner

This marks the third state to press charges against Republicans involved in attempts to overturn the 2020 election results, with similar cases in Michigan and Wisconsin.

Six Republicans in Nevada, who falsely declared Donald Trump as the winner of the 2020 presidential election, have been indicted by a grand jury. This makes Nevada the third state to seek charges against such 'fake electors'.
The fake electors have been charged with offering a false instrument for filing and uttering a forged instrument, felonies that carry penalties ranging from one to five years in prison.
Among the indicted is Nevada GOP chairman Michael McDonald, who has been a staunch ally of Trump and has pushed for changes in the state's election process.
Similar charges have been filed in other states, including Michigan where 16 Republican fake electors were charged with forgery and conspiracy to commit election forgery.
In Wisconsin, 10 Republicans who posed as electors settled a civil lawsuit, admitting their actions were part of an effort to overturn President Biden's victory.
