An attorney representing one of the alleged fake electors in Georgia has presented arguments seeking the dismissal of charges in the election subversion case. The attorney, Craig Gillen, is representing David Shafer, the former chair of the Georgia Republican Party accused of acting as a fake elector in the 2020 election.
Gillen disputed the claim in the indictment that Shafer was not a 'duly' appointed elector. He argued that during the time when Shafer and others allegedly submitted a false document declaring Trump's victory in Georgia, there were no duly elected and qualified presidential electors from the state.
