The Republican-controlled Maricopa County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Friday night to certify the election results of the county — Arizona’s largest — cementing Joe Biden’s win in the highly contested state.
BREAKING Maricopa County Board – 4 R’s/1 D – certifies 2020 election results by unanimous vote, after painstaking, ‘no stone unturned,’ 2.5-hour review of how election was conducted. 1st general election board has overseen in almost 70 years. #12News pic.twitter.com/GRL7hQH5Xf

Washington Post reporter Amy Wang tweeted that the board, comprised of four Republicans and one Democrat, “went through the elections process in excruciating detail and vouched for its integrity.”
There it is. With a unanimous vote, the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors has certified its election results.
For almost 3 hours, the four Republicans and one Democrat went through the elections process in excruciating detail and vouched for its integrity.

The board “methodically swept aside — in great detail — a wide range of fraud claims, including those pertaining to Dominion voting machines.”
This is a GOP-controlled board and they’ve methodically swept aside — in great detail — a wide range of fraud claims, including those pertaining to Dominion voting machines.

In a bit of a Twilight Zone moment, this happened.
At virtually the exact moment that the Maricopa County board made this unanimous, bipartisan showing, the Arizona GOP sent this:

Clint Hickman, the Republican chairman of the election board, said:
“It’s time to dial back the rhetoric, conspiracies, and false claims.
“In a free democracy, elections result in some people’s candidate losing.”
Did I mention Hickman is a Republican? [sarc]

As noted by our friends over at Twitchy, the certification came shortly after the last pending court case was dismissed:
JUST IN After daylong trial in final election challenge, Maricopa County judge tells both sides she’ll toss out lawsuit ‘with prejudice.’ Meantime, Maricopa County Board will certify results within the hour. It is over. #12News https://t.co/dIspu4TLRd

In a bit of black comedy, Maricopa County lawyer Tom Liddy is the son of G. Gordon Liddy of Richard Nixon-Watergate infamy, who would no doubt be loathed by Democrats as a card-carrying member of the so-called “alt-right” — if they even knew who he was, that is.

And again, without Maricopa Country, Biden would’ve been toast in Arizona. Moreover, he became the first Democrat presidential candidate to win Maricopa County since Harry Truman pulled it off — 72 years ago.
NOTED Joe Biden wouldn’t have won Arizona without Maricopa County. He’s first Democrat in 72 years – since Harry Truman in ’48 – to take Maricopa.

Did I mention that four of the five board members are Republican, and the Maricopa County attorney is G. Gordon Liddy’s son? Pretty sure I did.
Needless to say, TDS-riddled Trump-haters gleefully reacted to the news with the same kind of bitter bile we’ve come to know and “love” for more than four years. I decided to spare you the experience of reading their garbage — save for one example. Radical left-wing Rabbi Ari Berman no doubt wet himself over, as he described it, “Trump’s day.”
Trump’s day today:
-GA certified for Biden. Wins by 12,000
-Maricopa County AZ certified. Biden first Dem to carry since 1948
-MI GOP refuses to overturn will of voters
-Loses cases in AZ, NV & GA. 2-33 in post-election litigation
-Legal team & son quarantining for covid

And the Left doesn’t understand why conservatives won’t — after four years of that type of crap and worse — just roll over and sing “Kumbaya” with them. What did Biden call it in his “victory” speech? “A time to heal“? Sorry, Democrats; I’ll sit this one out.
Hear here!
Expect more and more of this if we keep ignoring the primaries. That’s where it all happens. The sad thing is every state has good candidates but its up to those in the know “like us” to pick them out and promote them so we don’t wind up with rino after rino.
It took them three weeks to simply count the vote and only 2.5 hours to “review” the election process? lol
They’d better be right or they might be going to prison.
You guys gotta find better candidates and promote the hell out of them or expect more of the same.!!
We have a bunch of bad pubbies in the party,we need to get rid of them asap,it’s not easy but it is dooable.When you cant get rid of one of them light a fire under his ass,it works.
How, pray tell, does continuing to vote help us overcome evil? The very GOP legislatures seem broadly indifferent to vote fraud. Of what value is it to pretend future elections will be fair and honest? I fear we are at an event horizon that requires far more devious methods to restore order.
It was so close a lot of factors could have made the difference. Like the Losertarian candidate and Cindy McCain taking soft Republicans from Trump.
It’s voting itself that’s in question. They let the Republicans win enough of the lesser contests. But the Republicans elected absolutely suck.
Apart from the obvious fraud perpetrated in PA, MI, WI, etc., not being able to count on carrying AZ and GA any longer makes it highly unlikely that a republican prez candidate will ever win again!
Moreover, with the margin of McSally’s defeat and the dual runoffs pending in GA, I have concluded that PDJT’s deficit in both states may not be that far out of line.
Still praying for the miracle to flip the aforementioned triad, and secure President Trump’s deserved relection!!!
Ditto. I don’t want to hear any 2022 talk about taking Congress like 1994 or 2010.
Majority of those new members have screwed us over and over. Mike Lee, Rubio, Toomey, Graham, etc. Not to mention House members like Devine.
I’m done with them.
I have cancelled my registration. Until such time as I am convinced the massive fraud that occurred everywhere in the nation has been corrected and punished, I will not register again.
I can choose not to participate in a fraud and a sham. And that is all that elections in the United States are.
Republicans nationwide have sold us out. They are just as corrupt as the democrats. The elites rule and crush the people. Get used to it. It is the “new normal.”
you cant be done voting primary them all out.
I look forward to joining the America First Party when Trump starts it.
I hate Repubicans and I hope there will be a new Trump Republican Party sooner rather than later. I’m excited about how many younger Republicans won seats in the House and add to that the Jim Jordans/Matt Gaetz and other true Conservatives in taking down these RINO’s and Elites that have done NOTHING for the party but take money from us and the RNC at election time........NO MORE!!!
The Uniparty, comprised of globalist Republicans and globalist Democrats, wants to reclaim the power it had before the anomaly named Trump made America First a viable alternative.
Throwing in the towel is what they want. Giving up will just make it worse for you and easier for them.
Nope. Being a slave on the GOP plantation who votes for whatever piece of human garbage they put on your ballot is what the GOP wants. The GOP is going to find out the hard way that MAGA voters are not interested in voting for coupists.
