State measure to make fake electors a felony. Party line vote, now it's on the desk of the scum that just barely won the governor's election.
 
I'm confused.
What does fake elector mean in that sentence?

The state decides who is an elector, and who they will vote for in the EC.

Why is a fake elector different, from the stand point of prosecuting, than a police impersonator trying to arrest a congressperson for participating in the electoral college?

What is the partisan angle? Are there state legislators that think overturning the federal government is OK, as long as it's their guy? What?

From the article linked to in the OP.

.....
Senate Bill 133 (SB133) passed on a 28-14 party-line vote, advancing to Gov. Joe Lombardo’s desk. The legislation follows an effort by a group of Republican electors that falsely claimed former President Donal Trump won the 2020 election in Nevada. They sent a fake electoral certificate to Washington, D.C.
....

There was no law specifically making such political fraud illegal. Now there is. All the Republicans voted against passing this bill.

Where have you been the last 2 1/2 years? Have you not heard of the fake elector stuff the Republicans tried to pull between the election and when Biden took office?
