Former Trump Aides Face Wisconsin Trial Over 2020 Election Fraud
AP News reports that a preliminary hearing was held in Wisconsin for three individuals linked to Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign, facing felony forgery charges related to a fake elector scheme. Despite challenges to the charges, the case has moved forward while other cases in states like Michigan and Georgia have stalled. The defendants, including attorneys Jim Troupis and Kenneth Chesebro, and aide Mike Roman, are accused of defrauding Republican electors who cast ballots for Trump in 2020. The hearing determined whether enough evidence exists to proceed with the charges, which stem from the submission of fraudulent paperwork to then-Vice President Mike Pence, falsely claiming Trump had won the state.
