CNN — Two prominent 2020 election deniers in Michigan were charged Wednesday with allegedly tampering with election equipment and sharing voter data with an unauthorized third-party.

The defendants are former Adams Township clerk Stephanie Scott and pro-Trump attorney Stefanie Lambert, who is already facing charges in a separate election-tampering case in Michigan. Lambert also recently made news for publicly leaking emails from Dominion Voting Systems as part of her ongoing efforts to discredit the 2020 presidential election results.

Scott was charged with six crimes, and Lambert was charged with three. Both women are accused of felonies, including conspiracy, and giving unauthorized access to a computer.

Their alleged actions in Adams Township were one of several incidents across the nation — including in Georgia, Colorado and Pennsylvania — where prosecutors say Trump allies breached voting systems in hopes of proving that the 2020 election was rigged. Many are now facing criminal charges.

1. Good. Lock 'em up.

2. Good to see the state AG's are holding coup plotters accountable.

Still waiting on Merrick Garland to hold just 1 coup plotter accountable. Not counting the 2 leaders of the "militias."

They did seize Scott Perry's phone.

3. Because for the billionth time, the ELECTOR process is handled by STATE LAW

Neither the federal government nor the Constitution micromanages how states select their Electors.

The federal requirements basically give states a mandate "to meet", and provides deadlines for when they needed to finalize their votes, along with designating what documents (and how many copies of each) need to be submitted to what federal entities within the federal Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches.

But my experience has been that reasoning only works for things reasoned into.

5. This all happened about 6 miles from me..

My little hellscape I call home, Hillsdale County.

7. I have one of those only a few miles from where I live also.

Shelby Twp. - He's actually the clerk there - you know, the guy who is in charge of the elections in Shelby. Isn't that ironic?

8. When I took early retirement, I had the choice to live in either Hillsdale or Ingham County.

I'm so glad I chose Ingham. It's nice here and no crazies, but being less than 1/2 mile from MSU helps. I feel your pain.

10. I see the devos Hillsdale College is there too
