John Kavanagh, a Republican state representative in Arizona, recently ran through a list of what he called “bad election bills that were introduced by Republicans.”
One would have allowed the Legislature to overturn the results of a presidential election even after they had been certified. Another would have required that early ballots be dropped off only at drop boxes that are attended. A third would have repealed the state’s hugely popular permanent early voting list, which allows voters to receive a ballot in the mail for every election.
All three measures were also stopped by Republicans in Arizona, even as the party pushes other bills that would enact tighter regulations on early voting in the state — just a few months after President Biden became the first Democratic presidential candidate since 1996 to carry the Southwestern battleground.
This G.O.P. resistance to certain voting legislation reflects an awkward and delicate dance within the party: As state lawmakers loyal to former President Donald J. Trump try to please him and his supporters by enacting new voting limits across the country, they are facing pockets of opposition from other Republicans who argue that some of the bills go too far or would hurt their own voters.

Then screw those Republicucks.
More assistant democrats.
You really believe this is truth coming from the NY Slime? Really? Never let the truth get in the way of the agenda.
It is not by chance Arizona now has 2 RAT Senators. What is amazing though is one of them is actually standing in way of permanent RAT rule by her protecting the Filabuster. Sad that the country now hangs by this thin thread .

I’m well aware of their agenda - we all are - it’s interesting to see what the enemy are saying...
“Restrictive”
Odd word to use when talking about stopping fraud.
Mais oui. But it becomes ludicrous to give them even a mention when their intent is known. “Enemy” is correctly used as a singular noun in your context.
If they don’t want to make elections more secure and honest, then they are clearly the problem. When in doubt, fire them all!
Somebody color me shocked! republicans whoring in the world of politics to benefit democrats. BOY! AS THOUGH THAT IS A NEW ONE! Ya ever hear of a scumbag name john mccain? How about mitt romney, george hw bush, george w bush, john boehner, paul ryan, mitch mcconnell...? In the interest of brevity, I left a lot out. I’ve seen this for so long. Dear GOD it just gets so old, fortunately(aging can be a blessing), so do I!
You’re not serious about election laws unless, voters are required to present valid ID, at a polling place, on a single election day, prior to casting a paper ballot, which is hand counted with observers from all parties while being streamed live on the Internet and recorded for recounts and audits. Absentee ballot should be allowed for very limited reasons and they must be obtained when presenting an ID. The ballot envelope must be signed by the voter and post marked by the USPS prior to election day.
Imagine casting your state’s electoral votes for a presidential candidate who LOST your state. THAT is the electoral reform favored by democrats.
Rd later.
