Michigan AG Indicts 16 Republicans for False Elector Certificates: Michigan AG Dana Nessel indicted 16 Republicans for signing false certificates as electors for Trump, potentially facing felony charges and prison sentences.
16 Michigan Republican Party members were indicted by the state's attorney general, Dana Nessel, for signing false certificates of election as electors for President Trump in the 2020 election. They knew they weren't the duly elected and qualified electors, and their actions aimed to alter the state's electoral votes against the will of Michigan voters. Nessel skillfully navigated the legal landscape to bring these individuals to justice, resulting in felony charges and potential prison sentences ranging from 5 to 14 years. This was one of several fake elector scandals in battleground states, and Nessel made a referral to Jack Smith, ultimately handling the investigation. Despite facing threats, including a kidnapping plot against her, Nessel remains determined to uphold the integrity of Michigan's elections.
Michigan AG's unique approach to prosecuting fake electors: State prosecutors can effectively address election interference by focusing on local offenses and avoiding potential interference from federal prosecutors
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel took a unique approach in prosecuting the fake electors involved in the 2020 election interference. Instead of waiting for federal prosecutors or broadening her investigation to include high-profile figures like DDonald Trump, John Eastman, and Rudy Giuliani, she focused on charging the fake electors in Michigan for their state law crimes. This strategy allowed her to maintain her case while Jack Smith pursued a separate investigation against Trump in Washington D.C. This approach could serve as a model for other states dealing with similar situations. By focusing on local offenses, state prosecutors can effectively address election interference while avoiding potential preemption or interference from federal prosecutors.

Attorney General Dana Nessel of Michigan has indicted several individuals for their involvement in submitting false electors in the 2020 presidential election. The charges include conspiracy to commit forgery, forgery, conspiracy to commit uttering and publishing, and uttering and publishing false statements, all of which are 14-year felonies. Nessel's office emphasized that these actions undermined the public's faith in the integrity of Michigan elections and violated state election laws. The attorney general's department has previously prosecuted election law violations and felt compelled to act given the evidence of an organized effort to circumvent legally cast ballots. This indictment could serve as a blueprint for other attorney generals in battleground states to pursue similar cases, allowing them to focus on their jurisdictions while avoiding the more sprawling, conspiracy-oriented charges being brought by federal and other state prosecutors.
