The Supreme Court of Nevada has reversed a lower court ruling and allowed criminal charges to proceed against six alternate electors for President Donald Trump during the 2020 presidential election.

The court ruled 6–0 on Nov. 13 that the case could proceed in Democratic-leaning Clark County, which encompasses the city of Las Vegas.
