Michigan Charges 16 People For Believing Trump Won 2020 Election – Face Up to 14 Years in Prison

Democrat Attorney General Dana Nessel, is bringing charges against sixteen Republicans in Michigan, including former state co-chairwoman Meshawn Maddock, for proposing themselves as alternate electors after the 2020 election results were challenged.

AG Nessel accuses the would-be electors – who average out at 69 years old between them – of having “undermined the public’s faith in the integrity of our elections,” and has hit each of them with eight felonies, among them forgery, conspiracy to commit forgery, and election law forgery.

Several of the charges carry prison terms of up to 14 years.

“Undoubtedly, there will be those who claim these charges are political in nature, but where there is overwhelming evidence of guilt in respect to multiple crimes, the most political act I could engage in as a prosecutor would be to take no action at all,” the Democrat claimed.

The move has been blasted by observers as a state intimidation tactic ahead of the 2024 election.

The full list of Republicans facing prosecution, and their ages, is provided below:

• Meshawn Maddock, 55
• Kathy Berden, 70
• William ‘Hank’ Choate, 72
• Amy Facchinello, 55

• John Haggard, 82
