Republican voters on Tuesday ousted a top elections official in Arizona’s most populous county who angered conservatives by defending the state’s voting system against false claims that the 2020 election was stolen, according to The Associated Press.

The results as of early Wednesday showed that the official, Stephen Richer, had lost his primary re-election bid for Maricopa County recorder to State Representative Justin Heap, a right-wing challenger buoyed by conservative voters’ distrust in elections and mail-in voting.

“…false claims that the 2020 election was stolen..”

2020 was stolen

[ronnie raygun]

They demanded we agree that the election was not stolen with threats of personal and economic destruction

IT WAS STOLEN!

Someone should tell Jack Healy of The New Gaslight Times that the reason the voters removed the SOB was because the voters believed their own eyes instead of believing lying dogsqueeze writing "election" fiction for the Gaslight Media.

Thanks for posting the You Tube link. Very interesting.

Until every state has real ‘chain of custody measures’ in place for mail in ballots, or better yet…. no mail in ballots… all elections will be up for major criticism. Georgia put together a great election integrity law. It should be the standard in all states.

Instead of calling folks election deniers, why not just address their concerns? Because they are the deep state. That’s why.

..defending the state’s voting system against false claims that the 2020 election was stolen..

Who says the claims were false? The Leftist courts and RINO executive branches never gave plaintiff groups a chance to argue their evidence.

Yes!

This is a hopeful development - but the cartel may be saving its big guns for November.

When a mass media outlet says “false claims” it is a good bet the claims are true.

[NorthWoody]

Everything conservatives say is automatically deemed “false” and “baseless” right out of the gate.

Good riddance to the McCain RINO.

[Tommy Revolts]

Yes it was here in Maricopa County. Buh-bye Stephen Richer.

But not to worry, I'm sure Richer will start a PAC to defeat Republicans.

I love good news in the morning.

Show me the Prosecutor who couldn’t get a warrant in the face of five states acting in unison, unprecedentedly stopping the count in the face of a done deal for Trump and restarting the count with Trump falling behind.

Interesting video.
