Former Adams Township clerk Stephanie Scott, 53, and attorney Stefanie Lambert, 44, will stand trial for illegally accessing 2020 voter data in Michigan. Prosecutors say Scott ignored state orders to turn over voting equipment for maintenance and allowed unauthorized access to non-public voter information. Lambert, who previously tried to overturn Trump's 2020 Michigan loss, allegedly helped transmit election data from the township's electronic poll book. Scott faces charges including computer crimes and misconduct in office. She was recalled from her position in 2023. Lambert faces similar computer crime charges and was previously disqualified from representing election conspiracy theorist Patrick Byrne in a Dominion Voting Systems case. Attorney General Dana Nessel called their actions "reckless and illegal." **Source:** [CBS News Detroit](https://www.cbsnews.com/detroit/news/michigan-township-clerk-stephanie-scott-attorney-stefanie-lambert-election-voter-data-breach/)
