Nevada judge dismisses Trump 'fake electors' case

A Nevada judge on Friday dismissed a case against six false electors who declared former President Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election.

Clark County District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus ruled from the bench that the state had filed the case in the wrong jurisdiction, the state attorney general's office confirmed to NBC News.

A spokesperson for the office said the state’s top prosecutor “will be appealing immediately.”

The judge's decision comes after a grand jury in December indicted six Republicans as part of a probe into the 2020 presidential election.

Among those charged included Nevada State Party GOP chair Michael McDonald.
