Hobbs is delaying the inevitable.
“Hobbs is delaying the inevitable.”
Not sure but one thought is that the dems want to delay a Republican win so they can claim the Republicans cheated. I wouldn’t put it past them.
I think this is more about the Maricopa County Board of Elections than about the State Sec of State office.
After the 2020 Trump loss there was a big fight between the Republicans in the State Legislature and the old line crowd in the local county office. It went on for months with the local county board never relenting or retreating from what control they had and not wanting to surrender evidence on past elections or control of process on these elections.
State forces backing Kari Lake said okay, you want control, well we will give you control but it will be in delivering our voting block so late you can’t easily sandbag it or allow others to do so. So Lake encouraged her supporters not to mail in their ballots or to vote in person, but instead, take their mail in ballots (common for 22 years in AZ) and deposit them all at their poling place on Election Day, an option I used to use in prior years.
They need to give this election to Lake.
Hobbs refusal to recuse herself and now she's presiding over this complete clown show of a count means that if she essentially declares herself the victor, this election will be tainted beyond all reasonable ability to accept the results.
I've never been much of an "election denier" but this whole thing stinks to high heaven.
Arizona has been a total embarrassment.
