‘where did hobbs “go” ‘? ? ?
....here is a ‘source’ that has a couple of interesting questions at the end of the article (it’s a ‘long story’)
arizona = the land of oz - - - who’s really behind the curtain???
From the Twitchy article you posted.......
The Arizona Constitution spells out that in the governor’s ‘absence from the state,’ the next in line automatically assumes the powers and duties of the office.
Hobbs has been out of state since Sunday and was not set to return until Thursday morning.
Secretary of State Adrian Fontes was scheduled to leave Wednesday night. And Attorney General Kris Mayes also is gone.
Strictly speaking, that has left Yee in charge.
But no acting governor in decades, however, has actually attempted to circumvent or countermand actions taken by the elected governor. And Yee said she would not use that power to fill what she said are the 13 vacancies or call the Legislature into special session.
