It's folly to try to get inside anyone else's head, I know, but I just can't shake this. Does Justice Gorsuch revel in everyone now knowing that he's keeping her from being able to come to work? Or is he embarrassed? I mean, how do you live with yourself? https://t.co/O8AfWHafPP — PolitiTweet.org

"The decision [to refer the matter to federal prosecutors] does not preclude possible state charges against the Republicans who falsely claimed that they cast Michigan’s Electoral College votes for Trump. Nessel said her office might still bring charges." https://t.co/seEfmhe1J0 — PolitiTweet.org

All credit to @weareoversight for their seminal work here! And to @nicholaswu12 at politico and all the other reporters running this to ground, especially @ruelaswritings in AZ. @ZcohenCNN and @MarshallCohen had a great piece on this last night at CNN. Lots more to figure out. — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear, it's still bizarre that NM & PA Republicans did this. They weren't real electors and they were never going to be, short of a coup. But in each of those states, someone took time to break the template and soften the... uh... outright forgery part of it. How come? — PolitiTweet.org

Rachel Maddow MSNBC @maddow

Unlike the other five states, those key changes from NM and PA make clear (with unique language for each state) that their weirdo assertions about being electors were actually contingent on the eventuality that it might someday be determined that they were the real electors. — PolitiTweet.org

The key change in the Pennsylvania document says "WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, on the understanding that if, as a result of a final non-appealable Court Order or other proceeding prescribed by law, we are ultimately recognized as being the duly elected and qualified Electors..." https://t.co/cYnFzF8iQ0 — PolitiTweet.org

Here's the key change in the New Mexico document: "WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, on the understanding that it might later be determined that we are the duly elected and qualified Electors for President and Vice President... from the State of New Mexico, do hereby certify the following:" https://t.co/4UmVjQjuEx — PolitiTweet.org

Rachel Maddow MSNBC @maddow

In those two other states, that key paragraph bluntly asserting these people were "the duly elected and qualified electors... from the state of X" (when in fact they were not!) is changed. And qualified. The two states are: New Mexico and Pennsylvania. — PolitiTweet.org

Rachel Maddow MSNBC @maddow

You can see that all five look exactly alike. That said! Republicans in 2 other states also sent in similar documents. Formatting, spacing, font and most of the language in the documents are the same as the others. Their weird documents were also sent to the Archives. But!... — PolitiTweet.org

In 5 states (at least) - AZ, GA, NV, MI, WI - Republicans sent in fake electoral slates that looked quite alike: Same font, spacing, formatting, and language. The similarity suggests a coordinated effort or that, at least, they were all working from the same document template. — PolitiTweet.org
