I think you’re missing the point. Hildy said she’d risk arrest IF it would accomplish anything. But it would not.
The level of understanding of election law is abysmal, even here on FR. Those who get it realize that what is not explicitly illegal will not be punished, and in the absence of a legal remedy there will be no change to the election outcome. Put simply, even if fraud and cheating occur, the law does not provide a mechanism by which election results can be reversed or a new election held. Thus it will NEVER happen.
As explained, withholding certification only causes collateral damage and doesn’t change the outcome. Only election law reform can do that.
Maybe when enough people wake up and realize what the problem is we can see the right kind of action to correct it. Put simply, it’s possible to cheat and get away with it and there’s nothing you can do about it under the present laws.
Yep.
Nothing can be done under the law.
I understand some Arizona commierats have been moved into hiding for their own safety. I hope they have to govern from “undisclosed locations” for the next 4 damned years.
“Hildy said she’d risk arrest IF it would accomplish anything. But it would not.”
That is called “rationalization”. It is commonly used to explain away cowardly behavior.
You cannot know the downstream effect of the optics of an entire Board of Supervisors getting arrested. That could have been the spark. If two or three counties did the same, it could have taken down the whole house of cards.
But we will never know because the yellow cowards never even tried. But thank goodness they are all SAFE! /s
1/2 right. Quo warranto actions can remove cheaters from UNLAWFUL elections. Not one frijjin candidate in AZ has tried this approach.
OK, so you are a bend over and take it guy, we get that.
