'Betrayed is an understatement': Michigan fake elector says he was duped by GOP officials Adam Nichols December 27, 2023
A Republican fake elector in Michigan told investigators of his regret for trying to swing the 2020 vote for Donald
Trump ā and said officials ābetrayedā him by exploiting his ignorance.
In a recording of an interview obtained by the
New York Times, James Renner said it was only after he heard testimony from the Houseās January 6 investigation that he realized heād acted illegally.
āI was accepting the individuals that were in authorityā knew āwhat they were talking about,ā Renner said in the interview.
But, after he and another 15 fake electors were sued in civil court in January this year, he started reading House transcripts involving the scheme he was accused of being a part of.
āIt was only then that I realized that, hold it, there is an official
state-authorized process for this,ā he said. āI had never been an elector, I had never discussed it with anybody. I was used to a much more informal process at the county level. And so thatās when I became suspicious of what had gone on... what happened was not legitimate.āāI am very upset,ā he went on. āI donāt show it, but I am. ⦠Betrayed is an understatement. Thatās all I can say.ā
Criminal charges against Renner, including forgery and conspiracy, were dropped after he agreed to cooperate with
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel. He is the only one of 16 people hit with the charges in July to have them dropped.was added to the roster of electors in December 2020 after two others dropped out. He said he had never been an elector before, but was asked to do so by the head of the county Republican Party after somebody else dropped out.
āI felt that I had been walked into a situation that I shouldnāt have ever been involved in,ā he said in the interview.
Charges have now been brought against fake electors in Georgia, Michigan and Nevada, with investigations ongoing in Arizona and New Mexico.
In the interview, Renner was asked about several people involved in the scheme including Trump lawyer Shawn Flynn, who worked on Trumpās campaign in the state, and the then-presidentās former personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani.
Trump has not been charged with any crime in the state, though The Detroit News last week released a recording that
showed him pressuring two canvassers not to certify the result, which could be evidence of his role in trying to overturn it.
