Ten Republican fake electors from Wisconsin agreed per the terms of a civil settlement not to serve as presidential electors in next year’s election and to withdraw the elector certificates they submitted.
Two electors representing Joe Biden filed the lawsuit last year in Dane County, Wisconsin, accusing the electors and two attorneys who worked on Trump’s effort to reverse his loss of conspiracy to defraud voters.
Per the settlement, the ten fake electors made the following statement:.
we were not the duly elected presidential electors for the State of Wisconsin for the 2020. presidential election,” the admission reads.
The fake electors played a key role both in keeping alive the myth of a dispute and in using that idea to justify their own existence.
Now, the fake electors themselves have effectively admitted that the whole thing was a sham.
Text messages released in the settlement agreement show how the fake electors admitted at one point that the plan was fundamentally deceptive. »
