Election lawsuits pile up in Arizona, as counties, candidates challenge 2022 midterms

One lawsuit seeks to prevent the certification of the 2022 election in Arizona.

After Maricopa experienced a host of problems on Election Day at many of its vote centers, one county subsequently chose not to certify its election by the Monday deadline, while another county certified "under duress," according to two supervisors on the county board.

The Mohave County Board of Supervisors received an email from Secretary of State Katie Hobbs' office on Monday saying that they could face felony charges if they didn't certify the election that day.

"[W]e were instructed by our attorney that if we did not canvass the election that we would be facing a possible class 6 felony, which is four months or up to five-and-three-quarters years in prison," one of the supervisors on the Mohave County board, Chairman Ron Gould, told the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show on Thursday. "So if you have a choice of vote yes to canvass or vote no and go to jail, do you really have a choice?"

Gould revealed that he's seeking the Arizona attorney general's opinion regarding Hobbs' claim that supervisors who decline to certify face criminal liability.

"[W]e're going to try to get an attorney general's opinion of, 'Is this the proper interpretation of the law?'" he said. "We might find that out just from the way the judge behaves towards Cochise County, because they're going through essentially what we thought might happen in Mohave."

Meanwhile, a lawsuit against Hobbs and the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to prevent state certification of the elections for statewide office in Arizona is set to have its first hearing on Friday. The date for state certification is Dec. 5.

Let the lawyers bloody the waters to badly that while she may be governor, she’ll wish she weren’t, because no one will have any respect for her.

Praying for God’s judgement to fall upon Katie Hobbs and all democrats who stole AZ elections this year and in past years….
I prayed once for a former boss who would come to town from CA and our office staff in Phoenix nicknamed him the grim reaper because he always laid someone off whenever he came. Until the office finally closed. Less than a year later he was killed in a taxi in DC while visiting with his family. A bus broadsided the taxi, and only he was killed….

Re: 9 - “4 months in prison is worth…”

You’re pretty free with people being sent to prison being worth it.

All from the comfort of behind a keyboard.

Democrats steal elections. Republican need to get tough (if they have the guts).

Shame and a lack of respect are not something democrats/marxists care about, only power.

I would hope any official of a county is prepared to endure hardship for his/her constituents. Fish or cut bait, damnit.

I understand, but if the malfeasance of ANOTHER COUNTY such as Maricopa ERASED THE PREDOMINATELY KARI LAKE VOTES in YOUR county, what else is that county supposed to do?

There’s a book, “The Parallel Election”, that details ways 2020 was stolen, and there’s no doubt those methods were used in 2022. I haven’t read it, but did catch an interview with the author. The info made me sick to my stomach.

My former pastor and his wife prayed for a few weeks that an abusive husband would be “removed from the situation”. They meant that he would leave the home. He croaked.
