CNBC ^ | 7/18/2023 | Dan Mangan

Michigan’s attorney general on Tuesday criminally charged 16 so-called “fake electors” for former President Donald Trump, accusing them of a fraudulent effort to reverse President Joe Biden’s victory in the state’s 2020 election.

The 16 people each face eight charges, including conspiracy, election law forgery, and uttering and publishing, state Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a video announcement.

Nessel called the alleged plan a “desperate effort” to “undermine democracy.” Several of the accused are active in Republican politics.

Nessel has not ruled out potential criminal charges against additional defendants, her office said.

What is "uttering and publishing?" That's a legal thing??

She’s the one who gave a press conference about drag queens....
“Drag queens are fun,” Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel says at a civil rights conference in Lansing.

Nessel said that drag queens are “not a problem for kids who are seeking a good education.”

“Every school should have drag queens.” June 15, 2022.

“election law forgery, and uttering and publishing”

WTF?

Is there such law anywhere?

Or are these completely made up laws?

Dems think they can use lawfare to destroy anyone who opposes them politically.
Trump in the crosshairs and now the rivals of the Dem state politicians in Michigan.

Dems for the first time in decades control the Gov.,Sec. of State, Attorney General, the state supreme court, state House and state Senate. Plus all large city mayors and councils.

Drunk with the intoxicating power of evil narcissism.

What they are contending is nonsensical. If someone carjacked your car and the criminal made up phony papers for it and kept it in his garage and you and the police tracked him down, Dems would say you are attempting to overthrow the possession of the car by the thief.

A stolen election with newspapers taped over the windows as votes were counted, and some with more votes counted than the total of possible registered voters living in the region, SHOULD be CORRECTED.

That is not “overthrow” it is correction.

I’m wondering about the punctuation on that.

Though I don’t know much of anything Michigan law to be sure, but it almost seems as though “election law” is some how distributive over the whole phrase as in

“election law forgery”
“election law publishing”
“election law uttering”

or maybe

“election law forgery”
“election law publishing and uttering”

I haven’t seen an indictment, which is the document that would clear that up (as an indictment would have to name the specific laws that were allegedly broken).

Well, technically...

IIRC, of the states in question (7 of them) 2 states designated these electors as “alternative” or “alternate.” Michigan wasn’t one of them.

The other 5 sent certificates that claimed they were “duly elected and qualified electors.”
