    Not seeing how it isn’t criminal charges, and instead a settlement with little more then a sorry we got caught.

    “I feel like I have to do it otherwise there will be a target on my back in my own district for the chair,”

    What a coward.

      Trying to steal the election should have dire consequences. Not this.

        Unfortunately we don’t have a great track record in the USA. The president of the confederacy only got a couple years in prison after the Civil War, and lived as a celebrity for a couple decades after that…

      The big part here is they won’t work as electors in any future election where Donald Trump is a candidate on the ballot. Obviously any result they got in the train wouldn’t overturn the election but the ruling can help prevent it from happening again.

        I can’t understand why they wouldn’t be disallowed from working as electors in any future election full stop. Limiting it like that seems like almost no consequence.

        How is that a deterent? So other MAGA zealots look at that and say “oh, so I can deny democracy in a position of power, and have zero consequences. Hold my beer”

    In Wisconsin, the Republicans said they met at the state capitol to sign the paperwork so their votes would count if a court ever overturned Biden’s victory in the state. They met about an hour after the Wisconsin Supreme Court upheld Biden’s victory in a 4-3 decision that Trump later unsuccessfully appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.

    Just a reminder that Three (3) Wisconsin Supreme Court Justices participated in an attempted coup in 2020.
