PHOENIX - A member of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors announced on Tuesday that he will be stepping down from his roles after a recording emerged of him criticizing his GOP colleagues for opposing a review of the 2020 election.
According to a statement, Steve Chucri said he will resign, effective Nov. 5.
During the meeting recorded surreptitiously last March, Supervisor Steve Chucri suggested two fellow Republican county supervisors opposed the review by Senate Republicans because they nearly lost their own 2020 races.
Chucri apologized in a statement announcing his resignation and said he shouldn’t have made the comments, adding "the political landscape has changed for the worst this year."
"The environment is wrought with toxicity — and all civility and decorum no longer seem to have a place," Chucri said in a statement. "The fixation with the 2020 election results and aftermath have gotten out of control."

Sounds like he spoke the truth.
resigning or forced to quit? Never apologize to the liberal mob.
Truth hurts!
I wouldn’t resign.
People with nothing to hide do not fight audits tooth and nail.
I wonder what the real reason is. The one he gave was pretty lame, and what he said isn’t worth resigning over.
Background needed ...something is missing
That’s a reason to stay, not retreat, one would think.
There were so few GOP back then, willing to come forward and demand a complete, honest accounting of the votes.
He was the only one, who seems to be OK. Spoke the truth for sure. Why is he resigning is above me.
Bttt
So he’s saying that he opposes a full audit because it will PROVE that many politicians (including fellow RINO’s) did not win their races.
This is why we need a full forensic audit in every single state. The cheating by Democrats and RINO’s has gone way beyond what the American people vote for.
When it comes to voting, the USA is now just like Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela and the Soviet Union.
I agree. He's my rep and I emailed hiim early on in this fiasco and at first he seemed amenable to looking into things. Then he changed and pretty much went along with the other ones. I think they got to him and talked him into closing ranks over it.
Why is he resigning is above me.
Probably getting out before the real SHTF. He probably doesn't want to be associated with it in any way now that it's going south.
“Background needed ...something is missing”
I’ll say. By his standard, there would be about 3 elected Republicans left. All others (i.e., those who attacked Trump) would have also resigned.
“You told the truth! Resign!!!”
If this audit proves Trump's election was stolen this recording makes him look good. Perhaps the RATs have bought the Arizona Senate out and it's going to be just another cover up. With Trillions of dollars at stake who knows what evil is going on behind the scenes?
Ping for later.
