PHOENIX, Ariz.—The chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors emailed County Recorder Adrian Fontes on the Monday before Election Day, expressing concern over the emergency voting centers Fontes established, according to the document that was obtained exclusively by the Washington Free Beacon.
Shortly before 6 p.m. local time Monday evening, the Associated Press called the Arizona senate race for Democrat Kyrsten Sinema over Republican Martha McSally.
The Sinema campaign appeared to be ready for it as they were putting out doorhangers and other material to their voters directing them to the centers.
We think there was collusion between the Sinema campaign and Grant Woods and the election chief Fontes. A Republican running for statewide office has not lost Maricopa county in decades, if then, until we got this Democrat elections chief.
Here is the interview transcript when Democrat Fontes, the election chief of Maricopa County was asked about the emergency voting centers.
Fontes was pressed on that issue this past weekend by political reporter Brahm Resnik on the 12News show “Sunday Square Off.”
Resnik: And I could have gone, without any illness and—for any reason I could have gone to one of these centers for any reason at all.
Fontes: You would have had to had an emergency.
Resnik: Are you sure about that?
Fontes: Yep.
Resnik: Uh, Democrat candidates were putting this number and address out on door hangers saying, ‘Just show up.’”
Fontes: The law says you can have emergency voting available, if a voter has an emergency.
Resnik: You weren’t checking for emergencies at the door.
Fontes: It’s not my business what your emergency is, Brahm. I’ve got HIPPA [health privacy laws] laws that prevent me from asking. You’ve got your privacy that I have to respect, and by the way, what, pray tell, is the problem with giving voters access to the ballot box? That’s my first question.
I hate to say it, but I’m glad that I’m an expat who has decided that I can’t ride two horses at once.
I will still pray. But then I can move on, grade papers, and worry about the place to which God has transplanted me.
God help us all.
God mend thy every flaw, confirm thy soul with self control, thy liberty with law.
A Republic, if you can keep it.
At least McSally stood up and complained like hell about these irregularities! (urp)
We can’t go back but we CAN prepare for 2020.
The house and AG did NOTHING when Trump asked for reforms.
BTW, which group/person has the most strength when it comes to actually making and enforcing election guidelines.
I really don’t know, to be honest
And there were 200,000 more votes counted in the Senate race than the race for Governor??? Obvious cheating and NO ONE will do anything about it!
The way I see it the R’s are allowing the D’s to walk all over them.
R’s are complete doormats while the D’s take full advantage and win.
Ducey doesn’t do anything, and neither does anyone else.
Us little people are not being listened to.
We couldn’t keep it. The Dems saw to that. Damn them all to hell.
How many votes did Sinema pick up at these emergency centers?
My basic sentiments.
This descendant of Pilgrim Feet is sad that about 400 years of family philosophy (my branch pulled out of Massachusetts about 1780) no longer appears to have a tenable political home on earth. Some U.S. states will hold out for a while longer, but as fortresses under siege, not as peaceful homes.
All she needed.
Oh l see they’re “concerned”. Way too late wouldn’t you say? Bet on this: McSally didn’t mind having the election stolen because by spring she will be given McTraitor’s seat. So we finally get rid of 2 of the worst Rinos only to be replaced by a Marxist and an open border Rino.
Not many Americans are gonna go along with a very strong protest like withholding taxes and then the ones that do will go to jail :(
mass protests sound goo but not sure of the effect.
getting a bottle of Jack Daniels would be effect at least for the day :(
Sinema’s last lead was over 30,000.
The ground game advantage has played out for all my adult life. There was a sporys article about how a coach used pre-season to build an effective defense for this year’s playoff based on last year’s loss. The pubbies seem to be incapable of learning.
Irrelevant. The election was certainly close enough for an investigation to take place.
Evidence of corruption in one aspect of the election process should necessitate investigation into ALL aspects and areas of the election process.
The person in charge of the elections department may have colluded with the Sinema campaign on at least one issue, what are the chances he manipulated the process in other areas?
Looks like it.
Only about 3,000 votes were cast at the emergency centers and I do not know the breakdown of who they went for.
My point is,...if Fontes was willing to put his thumb on the scale for Sinema in this instance, what else did he do for her? Was he colluding with her campaign?
The race will end up close enough that Fontes, (with help from scumbag Grant Woods), may have done enough to swing it to Sinema.
So when soldiers are needed, you decided to hide?
Sunshine Patriot, never darken our shores again. When all hands are needed, you post a pithy comment. Anyone can do that job, and it wins not a single vote.
The Democrats could not do it without help from Bush League Republicans, just like the Kenyan from Indonesia could not have usurped the office of President with out their help.
