    According to some reports from earlier this year, some of the fake electors in the case have been provided with public defenders because of their inability to pay for their own defense. Among those electors are Greg Safsten, the former executive director of the Arizona Republican Party, and Robert Montgomery, the former chair of the Cochise County Republican Committee.

    I would imagine one of the ones who can’t afford to pay for a high priced defense lawyer saw the light and flipped.

      Was probably the first, last, and only thing the public defender told them.
