Nevada Judge Dismisses Case Against Fake Electors Linked to 2020 Election
A Nevada judge has dismissed the case against six Republicans accused of submitting a false certificate declaring President Trump the winner of the state's 2020 presidential election. The dismissal is part of a broader trend, as similar cases in Arizona, Michigan, and Georgia have also been dropped. Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford, who brought the charges, plans to appeal the ruling. The defendants, including Michael McDonald, chair of the Nevada Republican Party, argued that their actions were political theater rather than an attempt to deceive. The judge found insufficient evidence of intent to deceive and noted the state failed to disclose exculpatory evidence.
