In a stunning development out of the leftist-run state of Michigan, a judge there has abruptly dismissed the state's lawfare charges against those individuals who offered themselves as alternate electors, for President Donald Trump, during the disputed 2020 presidential election.
Democrat officials in the state had claimed that they were guilty of offenses like forgery, conspiracy and such because they believed there were problems with the election and they wanted to protect the rights of Trump voters to be represented should their suspicions be documented.
In effect, they were "exercising their constitutional right to seek redress," according to the judge in the case, Kristin Simmons.
The verdict in the case:
Alternate slates of electors have been used by both major political parties in America over the years. The 2020 race generated charges of election fraud because not only was there documented fraud, but there were two undue influences that undoubtedly skewed the election.
One was that Mark Zuckerberg handed out $400 million plus to local elections officials who mostly used it to recruit voters from Democrat districts.
No private funding like that amount ever had appeared in a U.S. election.
Then, too, there was the FBI's decision to interfere in the election. Despite knowing it was true, the bureau warned media corporations to suppress accurate information about Biden family scandals documented in a laptop computer abandoned by Hunter Biden at a repair shop.
A subsequent polling revealed that had those details been reported ordinarily, enough voters would have withheld their support for Joe Biden to cause him to lose the election.
The judge found that the Constitution provides protections for peaceably assembling and petitioning the government, and that's what Michigan's alternates did during the 2020 race.
The Gateway Pundit listed the charges the leftist authorities in Michigan had created against the defendants, including multiple counts of forgery and conspiracy.
The publication even cited a video of leftist Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, the radical activist behind many of the election issues in the state, including the case against the alternates.
In that video Nessel confirmed that the alternates truly believed what they were doing was right, meaning she knew there was no intent to commit a fraud or a deception.
The judge founds, "I believe they were exercising their constitutional rights to seek redress, and that's based on the statements of all of the people's witnesses. And for those reasons, these cases will not be bound over to the circuit court and this case will be dismissed."
The Gateway Pundit called the ruling "a major gut-punch" to Nessel, a "Democrat activist."
