The indictment, which spans\u2062 45 pages, alleges that Trump and other &#8220;conspirators&#8221; attempted to subvert the democratic process by using illegitimate slates of \u200delectors in \u200ccontested states to overturn the election.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the document, \u200bTrump is referred to as the &#8220;defendant.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pence&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trumps-new-indictment-exposes-mike-pences-secret-notes-of-conversations\/\" title=\"Trump's latest indictment reveals Pence's covert conversation notes.\">note-taking plays<\/a> a crucial role in the indictment, portraying\u2063 the former\u2064 president as someone unwilling to relinquish power. According to the indictment, Trump was informed by advisers that he had lost the election,\u2064 but he disregarded their\u2063 advice and pressured Pence to refuse to certify the election on January\u2062 6, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The Department \u2062of Justice \u200bargues that Pence repeatedly rejected \u2062a plan to use alternate slates of electors from battleground states, which it deems &#8220;fraudulent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The indictment cites four separate\u200b conversations between Trump and Pence, which \u200boccurred between December 5, 2020, and January 3, 2021.
