Update October 13, 2024

Thank you to everyone who has donated to the John Haggard, Senior Republican Defense Fund.

The cost serving as a Volunteer Republican Elector has been both emotionally and finically draining. John's attorney fees are over $83,000.00. Imagine what the Attorney General has spent of OUR taxpayer dollars to try these Republican Volunteer Electors.

Now the wait...30 days for the prosecutor to submit their paperwork, 30 days for John's attorneys to submit their paperwork, and then 30 days for the judge to make a decision to see if this will go to trial.

Please continue to support John with prayers, thoughts, words of encouragement, and finically during this trying time.

Much love, continue to fight for what is RIGHT! 

UPDATE January 1, 2024

John Haggard, Sr is being targeted by the Democrat AG because he dared to support President Trump, and desired to cast his Electoral vote on the appointed day in case it was determined that President Trump had in fact won the 2020 presidential vote in Michigan. John Haggard Sr has a First Amendment right to express himself, and he never intended to defraud anyone, contrary to what the AG has alleged. Without your support, John Haggard Sr could spend years in prison.

Please donate to his legal defense fund and stand against Dana Nessel and her politically motivated attacks against Republicans.
