MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — Three men plead not guilty for an attempt to cast false electoral votes for President Trump in 2020.
Former Trump attorney Jim Troupis, and election advisers Mike Roman and Ken Chesebro entered pleas to conspiracy and forgery charges in Dane County Court on Tuesday. The three are accused of lying to 10 Republicans who cast opposing electoral college votes for Trump, after Joe Biden won the state in the 2020 election.
All three argue they committed no crimes and were just attempting to preserve Trump’s chances if a court found fraud in Wisconsin’s election.
Wisconsin prosecutors argue the three lied to the electors and said their votes would never be submitted to Congress, even though they were.
