The man who will oversee elections in one rural county in Nevada next year is scheduled to be arraigned Monday along with five fellow Republicans on charges that they submitted false paperwork claiming Donald Trump had won the state in 2020.

Hindle was another replacement in what was a revolving door of county election officials across Nevada as the 2022 midterms approached. He had just unseated the interim clerk, who had stepped in after the prior clerk resigned.

But Hindle’s tenure in the heavily Republican county is part of a trend across battleground states where fake electors have retained influence over elections heading into 2024.

He is among six Republicans who were indicted this month by Democratic Attorney General Aaron Ford for their alleged roles in attempting to overturn the election outcome in the swing state, which Democrat Joe Biden carried by more than 33,000 votes over the GOP president.

      They won’t. At least not in the way you’re thinking.

      They found the bugs in Insurrection v.1. Made patches and found where it would be better to have “Loyalists”.

      If there is any hint that Biden will win in a district they control, they will make sure that it doesn’t happen.

      If you are a democracy loving American, sign up TODAY, not tomorrow, not a week before the primary, to either be a poll officer, poll watcher, or other observer.

      The last few times I did was the youngest person by at least 30 years and I’m 40 years old now.

      This won’t stop a corrupt Secretary of State. But it is the least we can do.
