BREAKING: Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel has filed multiple felony charges against 16 people in connection with the Michigan “false electors” scheme. Nessel, a Democrat, announced the charges — including election law forgery — on Tuesday afternoon. Nessel highlighted other election fraud cases brought by her office, then noted that she “could not possibly justify” such prosecutions if she ignored that circumstances alleged here, which she described as “an organized effort to circumvent the lawfully cast ballots of millions of Michigan voters” in the presidential 2020 election. “A failure to act in the face of such evidence would constitute malfeasance of the greatest magnitude,” Nessel said. The felony counts, per Nessel, are: one count of conspiracy to commit forgery, two counts of forgery, one count of conspiracy to commit uttering and publishing, one count of uttering and publishing, one count of conspiracy to commit election law forgery, and two counts of election law forgery. All 16 individuals face all eight charges, per Nessel.
