Arizona’s attorney general charged several Trump allies, including his former chief of staff Mark Meadows and former personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, for the so-called 'fake electors' scheme in 2020. NBC News Correspondent Vaughn Hillyard joins Meet the Press NOW with his reporting.
A federal judge Monday rejected an effort by former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows to move his Arizona indictment to federal court in a case focused on efforts to overturn Donald Trump's 2020 electoral defeat.

Weeks after the election in 2020, 11 Trump supporters met and signed a certificate falsely claiming Trump the victor in Arizona, even though Joe Biden won the state by 10,457 votes and state officials had certified his electors. Each defendant was charged with nine felony counts, including conspiracy, forgery, and fraudulent schemes and practices.
