Talk:Wisconsin prosecution of fake electors

move page recommendation
Since you're the one who created the article and the only other editor with significant contributions to it at this point, I wanted to get your opinion on moving the page to a different name. My suggestion would be something like Wisconsin prosecution for fraudulent electoral votes. The reason is that in this case (unlike Arizona, Michigan, etc.) the electors are not being charged, the charges are just against the three campaign operatives who created the fraudulent paperwork which the electors signed. -- Asdasdasdff (talk) 21:30, 5 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Yes, I see your point. I wouldn’t be against a move, but I’d suggest it to be something more along the lines of “Wisconsin prosecution of Trump fake elector aides”, or simply just “Wisconsin prosecution of fake elector aides”. Thoughts? -- WellThisIs TheReaper  Grim 23:14, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I havent done any edits to this page yet but it could be kept as is, because their actions were part of the plot, and I think that Kaul might try to eventually prosecute the fake electors themselves, though that might be WP:Crystal @Asdasdasdff @WellThisIsTheReaper. Also I think the current name is clear and consise, while the suggestions thrown around above feel more cluttered for a title of an article. Talthiel (talk) 01:45, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
 * OK, the name isn't terribly inaccurate as it currently is. But if Kaul does end up bringing charges against the electors, it seems like that will be a separate indictment, and since we've now set up this article as dealing with the Wisconsin v. Chesebro case, I think at that point we would have to revisit the naming question. (Personally though, I don't think Kaul will bring charges against the electors anyway.) -- Asdasdasdff (talk) 03:43, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
 * No Talthiel, Wisconsin statute 971.19(12) apparently leaves the prosecutorial jurisdiction of fake electors to county DAs. ("For example, Kaul was only able to bring the case he has because the district attorney in Dane County, where Troupis lives, authorized the AG to do so.")  So I agree with the recommendation, but I propose a move to: Wisconsin prosecution of fake electors plot. rootsmusic (talk) 02:25, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
