TL;DR Summary

Kenneth Chesebro, one of the legal architects behind the plan to deploy individuals claiming to be Trump electors in states won by President Biden, is now cooperating with investigations in Michigan, Arizona, and Nevada. Chesebro has emerged as a key witness in the criminal cases against 24 "fake electors" who face charges of forging and submitting fraudulent documents. His involvement in the scheme, which aimed to delay or block the certification of Biden's Electoral College victory, has drawn attention after he pleaded guilty to a felony charge of conspiracy in Georgia. Chesebro's lawyers maintain that he was merely offering legal advice during the 2020 election.
