A Nevada judge has thrown out criminal charges against six Republican alternate electors from the 2020 election, ruling they lacked fraudulent intent since their actions were public—not secretive. The Attorney General, Aaron Ford, is furious and plans to appeal, calling the move a betrayal of democracy. The electors, including GOP Chair Michael McDonald, were indicted on forgery and fraud charges for submitting a fake electoral certificate claiming Trump won Nevada. Their defense says the AG’s appeal is rushed and politically driven. This follows similar dismissals in Arizona, Michigan, and Georgia—with Arizona’s case set for re-filing—and contrasts with Wisconsin’s ongoing prosecution.
