A Georgia woman charged in connection to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol as well as a fake state elector busted in a plan to overturn the 2020 presidential election were purportedly listed as “county captains” for Republican Senate hopeful Herschel Walker’s campaign.
Walker’s campaign sent out a press release in August listing Mandy Robinson-Hand and Kim Godwin as “county captains” despite their problematic pasts, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Tuesday.
The publication also noted that when they asked Walker’s campaign about the two picks, the webpage was mysteriously deactivated and rerouted to a page asking for donations.
CEDRIC THE ENTERTAINER HITS HERSCHEL WALKER IN NEW ATTACK AD
It’s the latest example of headaches plaguing the former football star’s campaign as it heads into the final two months before Election Day.
Godwin was among a list of electors that have been informed they could face charges for their involvement in the scheme to overturn the 2020 presidential win in former President Donald Trump’s favor.
Robinson-Hand and her husband, Charles Hand III, of Butler, Georgia, were arrested by FBI agents in March and charged with four misdemeanors, including entering and remaining in a restricted building, two counts of disorderly conduct, and one count of parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a capitol building, according to the Department of Justice. They were arrested after tips, surveillance, documentary footage, and social media posts linked them to the Jan. 6 attack.
