At least Maricopa County has a new county recorder who defeated the Democrat who screwed up the 2018 election.
The preliminary audit aired several unsubstantiated conspiracy theories and baseless allegations of election fraud and partisanship on Fontes’s part, some of which didn’t even cite a source or origin for the claims. Though Richer labeled the claims as unsubstantiated, some Republicans portrayed them as established fact.
Richer also questioned some of Fontes’s other election-related actions in his report, such as the expanded use of emergency voting centers in 2018, his placement of those centers, and his new policy of reaching out to voters with potentially deficient signatures on their early ballots. Richer concluded in the audit that those policies were questionable but not illegal.
Of course a Republican accusation is a “conspiracy theory.”
I’m sure Soros backed Secretary of State would agree. She is convinced an audit of the voting is a waste of time.
“A group of Republicans are continuing to try to appease their base who refuse to accept that … Trump lost Arizona and that he’s not the president anymore,” Hobbs told CNN’s Chris Cuomo on “Cuomo Prime Time.”
This was a few months after she referred to Trump voters as “neo-Nazis.” Certainly no bias there.
First, the Board of Elections denied use of official facilities. Then the Board of Supervisors Tried to prevent access to ballots
The Democrats then sued to try to stop it. The first judge recused himself, then the second judge, a Democrat, Refused to stop the recount.
Why are Democrats so determined to prevent any recount in an election they assert they have won and any questions about fraud are “without evidence?”
Now, the Biden DOJ is trying to intervene.
They really don’t want anyone checking on that election, do they?
Everyone knew this was coming…. The Feds are attempting to get involved in the Maricopa County ballot audit. The DOJ Civil Rights Division has sent a letter [pdf available here] to the Arizona State Senate claiming their review of Lawfare statements and media reports may show evidence of auditing issues that violate federal laws.
Last week a group of Lawfare activists [SEE HERE], including New York University Law School which leads to Andrew Weissmann, asked the DOJ to get involved.
The ridiculous letter from the Biden DOJ goes on to cite media reports from the Washington Post as evidence to justify their involvement.
Remember, previously the DOJ narrative was that each state makes up its own election rules. Now the DOJ is saying, falsely, that Arizona might be breaking federal laws.
No doubt there will be more to come. You’d think Democrats would be proud of how well the election that Biden won was conducted.
