Nevada Supreme Court Revives Trump 2020 Alternate Electors Case Days After Trump Issues Sweeping Pardons

Nevada electors sing the National Anthem on January 6, 2021.

The Nevada Supreme Court on Thursday revived the Trump 2020 alternate electors case days after President Trump issued sweeping pardons of allies and attorneys.

Last year, Clark County Judge Mary Kay Holthus dismissed the case against the 6 Nevada GOP electors.

The judge said Clark County was not the appropriate venue to bring the charges against the electors. The judge agreed that the case should have been brought in Carson City.

In a unanimous 6-0 decision on Thursday, the Nevada Supreme Court overruled the lower court’s decision and revived the Trump electors case.

Nearly two years ago, Nevada’s Democrat Attorney General Aaron Ford announced charges against 6 Trump 2020 alternate electors.

When the Democrats cast alternate electors, it’s called ‘dueling electors.’ When the Republicans cast alternate electors, it’s called ‘fake electors’ and indictments come down from crooked Democrat attorneys general.

Six Trump electors were indicted on felony charges by a grand jury in the Eighth Judicial District Court in Nevada.

“When the efforts to undermine faith in our democracy began after the 2020 election, I made it clear that I would do everything in my power to defend the institutions of our nation and our state,” Aaron Ford said in a statement. “We cannot allow attacks on democracy to go unchallenged. Today’s indictments are the product of a long and thorough investigation, and as we enter into litigation, I am confident that our judicial system will see justice done.”

“Among those charged are some of the top officials from the Nevada Republican Party, including Nevada Republican Party Chairman Michael McDonald, Nevada Republican Party National Committeeman Jim DeGraffenreid, Clark County Republican Party Chairman Jesse Law, and Storey County Clerk Jim Hindle, as well as Republican operatives Shawn Meehan and Eileen Rice.” ABC News reported.

“Each of the defendants have been charged with felonies including offering a false instrument for filing, offering a forged instrument, and offering a false instrument titled “Certificate of the Votes of the 2020 Electors from Nevada” to the President of the Senate; the Archivist of the United States; the Nevada Secretary of State; and the United States District Court for the District of Nevada.” the outlet said.

In December 2020, Republican electors in Nevada cast ballots for Donald Trump.

Nevada cast procedural votes for President and Vice President to preserve the Trump campaign’s legal challenges.

The Trump campaign asked Trump electors to cast their votes as litigation makes its way through the system, as we saw in the 1960 election with Nixon vs Kennedy.  You can read more here.

Nevada’s Supreme Court decision to revive the electors case comes just days after President Trump pardoned 77 alternative electors from the 2020 election and attorneys who were ruthlessly and unjustly persecuted.

The list includes President Trump’s former attorneys Rudy Giuliani, Christina Bobb, and John Eastman. The list also includes Trump’s trusted advisors Mark Meadows, Boris Epshteyn, and dozens of alternative electors from Georgia, Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, and Wisconsin.
