New Mexico Republican who signed bogus electoral certificate says he has 'no regrets whatsoever'

A bogus electoral certificate signed by prominent New Mexico Republicans and sent to the national archive in the wake of the 2020 presidential election has gotten new scrutiny over the past week.

The peculiar action received scant attention in the shadow of a lawsuit from President Donald Trump's campaign on the day that New Mexico electors gathered at the state Capitol building in Santa Fe to deliver New Mexico's five electoral college votes to Democrats Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for president and vice president.

Alternative electoral certificates from New Mexico and six other states were first published by American Oversight and have taken on greater significance as the U.S. House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 assault on the U.S. Capitol scrutinizes efforts by Trump supporters to subvert the certification of Biden's election win in several states.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, a Democrat, described a similar action by Republicans in that state as "election fraud" and referred the case to federal prosecutors while continuing to mull state charges as well, Ann Arbor News reported.

…with a clause/statement to the effect that IF TFG won, then…
Treasurer for Otero County Commissioner Couy Griffin of 1/6 and Cowboys for Trump has a daughter, very high up in NM political world (Vice Chair of Republican Party of New Mexico) who’s a signer.
No one wants her charged more than I do but it’s not likely.
