It is not clear if the 8 electors were actually threatened with a criminal charge BEFORE they accepted immunity.

Also, it is not clear why the other 8 electors refused to sign the immunity agreement.

Any elector that is threatened by anyone can be arrested.

Didn’t Kemp just sign a bill to keep these rogue DA’s in line.

I bet Kemp will do nothing worthwhile about it.

Faker Kemp.

“Charges against Trump...” Sounds so grave.

BTW does anyone know what Trump is supposed to actually be guilty of doing?

Perhaps someone more knowledgeable on the law than I will correct me, but; There is no such thing as a “fake” elector. They are either certified or uncertified. If the election is in doubt, as it was in Georgia , then there are two slates of electors, one for each potential winner. Both slates are legal until such time as the election is certified. The certification can be appealed if the election is in doubt.

The use of the term ‘fake’ is a purposeful deception aimed at those who do not understand the process.

Not hare to get people to sign immunity agreements when first they are threatened with all kinds of terrible things, even if those things are not legit. The legal fees to fight it will still be huge.

He is guilty of questioning a suspicious election.

A thought crime of the highest order.

Although Democrats from Hillary to Al Gore to Stacy Abrams do it all the time.

So I guess the ACTUAL crime is questioning a suspicious election while Republican...

Sounds like the prosecutors played cat and mouse, using their power to intimidate:

“Here’s the deal. Here’s the deal. Either [Elector E] is going to get this immunity, and he’s going to answer the questions – and wants to talk – or we’re going to leave. And if we leave, we’re ripping up his immunity agreement,” Wade is said to have told Debrow and her client.”

Re: "BTW does anyone know what Trump is supposed to actually be guilty of doing?"

Trump asked the GA Secretary of State to "find" 12,000 votes.

The MSM and Political Left claim Trump was inducing fraud.

In fact, Trump was asking the Sec State to enforce Georgia election law.

By law, if a Georgia resident moves to a new address, that resident must report the new address to the Department of Elections within six months.

By law, failure to report will nullify any vote that person casts after the six month period ends.

Trump wanted the Sec State to find 12,000 nullified voters, which would force a new election.

The GA Secretary of State refused.

I remember him using the 12k figure to illustrate how close the election was and how little effort it would’ve taken to steal it.

They were given immunity in exchange for their willingness to lie on the stand.
