Excerpt:
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes suffered a major setback in her highly controversial, ongoing criminal case against major Trump allies and alternate electors from the 2020 election, as the defendants recently cleared a major hurdle in their quest to dismiss the case by citing an Arizona law aimed at preventing politically-motivated prosecutions.
In April of last year, Mayes’ office announced that grand jury had indicted former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, and five other former aides to former President Donald Trump on felony charges related to the Trump campaign’s objection to the 2020 election results. The indictment, which includes felony counts of conspiracy, fraud and forgery, also names Trump as an “unindicted co-conspirator.”
Eleven additional Arizona Republicans who served as alternate electors have also been indicted, including former Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward, state senators Jake Hoffman and Anthony Kern, and Arizona’s RNC committeeman Tyler Bowyer. Leftist prosecutors have routinely labeled alternate electors as “fake electors” before charging them with felony forgery and fraud crimes.
