Standing out is Jack Willentic, a Phoenix-based lawyer who worked for the Trump campaign.
According to a Times report, Wilenchik contacted Trump Campaign Advisor Boris Epshteyn and others on December 8.
In one email, he fully referred to the voter as a “fake” voter, later suggesting that the more palatable phrase was the “alternative” voter.
Many suggest that the line indicates that officials knew that these voters were “fake” in the first place. However, Wilenchik used this word in quotation marks. This probably suggests that he is borrowing someone else’s word. But perhaps a more striking development is how he explained their purpose.
“We can just send Pence a” fake “voter vote and start arguing that” someone “in Congress should start counting the” fake “votes, arguing when they start counting. Willenchik wrote to Epshteyn. He summarized the proposal by Trump Alliance lawyer Kenneth Chesebro to nominate a fake voter “so that Congressmen could fight whether they should be counted on January 6th.”
Chesebro in the November 18 memo certainly pushed a fake voter. But he explained that it was necessary in the case of “a court decision (or perhaps a state legislature decision) made after December 14 in favor of the electorate Trump Pence Slate.” Willenchic seems to be skipping it, and suggesting the mere existence of a fake voter may be enough to doubt things on January 6th.
Wilenchik may also have considered the battle to have taken place after a particular court decision or state legislative action. But elsewhere, it has been suggested that at least one key person involved has a more secret idea: Republican Chairman Kelli Ward of Arizona. Wilenchik said in another December 8 email that Ward “wanted to cover it up until Congress counted the January 6 votes (and Dem and the media” I can be surprised) —I tend to agree with her. ” (Ward was summoned last month as part of a federal investigation into a fake electoral college.) The fake electoral slate was somehow kept secret until January 6, after which he suspected. It seems that the idea was to spring into an unknown political world. Congress counted the voters.
The exact reason is not clear, but it is certainly a remarkable plan to overturn democracy.
