New York Disbars Man Behind Fake Elector Scheme to Overturn 2020 Presidential Election Results
Kenneth Chesebro, a key figure in the Republican efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results through a fake elector scheme, has been disbarred in New York. The disbarment comes after the state's Supreme Court found Chesebro guilty of violating the Election Law and other provisions.
A New York judge has disbarred Kenneth Chesebro, the architect of a fake elector scheme aimed at overturning the 2020 presidential election results, in which Republican officials and operatives falsely claimed to represent states that had already certified their electoral votes for President Joe Biden. The scheme was part of broader partisan efforts to undermine the election results. Chesebro's disbarment is seen as a rare consequence for those involved in such schemes. The ruling marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation into the fake elector movement.
