Meshawn Maddock, former co-chair of the Michigan Republican Party, has pleaded not guilty to eight felony charges on accusations she and others filed paperwork falsely claiming Donald Trump won Michigan in 2020 in an effort to keep him in the White House.
Maddock, 55, of Milford, is one of 16 people facing charges related to the so-called false electors scheme to swing Michigans Electoral College votes to Trump even though Democrat Joe Biden won the state by 154,188 votes.
Maddock entered the plea Tuesday at an arraignment in Ingham County. She did not have an attorney present, was released on $1,000 bond and cannot travel out of state and cannot possess firearms, per court records.
Fellow defendant Mari-Ann Henry of Brighton was also arraigned and pleaded not guilty.

They didn't both checking whether it was legal. The defense seems to be "we didn't know it was against the law."
That they did it is not in dispute. The gullible idiots signed their names to the document.
Stupid & with fascist tendencies.
