The Arizona Attorney General’s office on Wednesday dropped an indictment against all 11 Republicans who served as fake electors for fat former President Trump after the 2020 election.
The indictment is for at least 99 counts–nine counts against each of the named individuals–as well as seven other people who are listed on the indictment but whose names have been redacted. The charges include single felony counts of Conspiracy; Fraudulent Schemes and Artifices; and Fraudulent Schemes and Practices; as well as six counts of Forgery.
The individuals indicted include Kelli Ward, the former Republican state senator who led the state GOP during the 2020 attempt to overturn the state’s election results, and both she and her husband signed the slate of fake electors.
According to Mayes, the defendants are charged with an effort “preventing the lawful transfer of the presidency of the United States, keeping President Donald J. Trump in office against the will of Arizona voters, and depriving Arizona voters of their right to vote and have their votes counted under the United States Constitution, Arizona Constitution Article 7, and Arizona Revised
Statutes, Title 16[.]
The seven unnamed people, according to the Washington Post, “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.”
Donald Trump is obviously Unindicted Coconspirator 1:
In Arizona, and the United States, the people elected Joseph Biden as President on November 3, 2020. 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. This scheme would have deprived Arizona voters of their right to vote and have their votes counted. [Emphasis in original.]
