Twelve prominent Arizona Republicans, alleged co-conspirators of President Trump, are about to be processed, fingerprinted, and have their mugshots taken prior to appearing before an arraignment judge Tuesday in the Arizona fake electors case.

On Friday, one of Mr. Trump’s former attorneys, John Eastman, was arraigned at the Maricopa County courtroom. On Tuesday, 12 of his alleged accomplices are scheduled to appear in court on charges they presented fraudulent presidential election results.

The defendants are charged with conspiracy, fraud, and forgery in service of an effort to keep Mr. Trump in power by dedicating Arizona’s electoral college votes to Mr. Trump “against the will of Arizona voters.”

“Defendants and their unindicted co-conspirators deceived the public with false claims of election fraud in order to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency, to keep [Mr. Trump] in office against the will of Arizona’s voters, and deprive Arizona voters of their right to vote and have their votes counted,” the indictment reads.
