Meadows Pleads Not Guilty In AZ Fake Electors Case

The Arizona Republic reports:

Two top aides to Donald Trump pleaded not guilty Friday morning to charges stemming from a plan to keep him in the White House by falsely certifying he won the state in 2020.

Mark Meadows, Trump’s former chief of staff, and Michael “Mike” Roman, a member of Trump’s campaign team, were arraigned in a Maricopa County court.
