Allies of former President Donald Trump have been hit with multiple charges related to the undue possession of a voting machine, according to court records.
One of the two charged is Matthew DePerno, a lawyer who unsuccessfully ran for Michigan attorney general with the former president's endorsement. The other is Daire Rendon, a former Republican state representative. The charges relate to activity surrounding the 2020 presidential election.

DePerno was listed as a "prime suspect" in an incident that saw five vote tabulators taken to a Michigan hotel room in order to run "tests" on them, according to Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office. DePerno has denied any wrongdoing and accused Nessel of "weaponizing her office."
Seizing a voting machine without a court order or official permission is considered a felony, punishable by up to five years in prison.
