PHOENIX — Arizona’s 15 counties called upon state lawmakers on Thursday to solve an elections calendar issue that they believe could throw the U.S. presidential race into “chaos.”
The Arizona Association of Counties (AAC) sent its request through an open letter to the Arizona State Senate and Gov. Katie Hobbs. AAC’s letter said emergency legislation is required to ensure Arizona can certify the general election in time.
…… The votes of military voters are on the line, according to AAC. The organization called for legislation to change key dates related to the upcoming presidential election. Without it, Arizonan military votes for president may not be counted in the electoral college, AAC’s letter said.
What do Arizona election officials want?
Jen Marson, executive director of the Arizona Association of Counties, said a “clean” bill is necessary. She is worried lawmakers will shove unrelated policy changes into a bill that should fix this issue alone.
To ensure swift action is taken, a simple and to-the-point bill is necessary, she said.
“An issue this significant deserves to be handled separately so that it can pass with bipartisan support and be signed into law this time,” Marson said in a statement. “We need a clean solution to this problem no later than Feb. 9 to protect the votes of overseas military families, comply with federal law and ensure Arizona’s electors for president count.”

Giving total control of elections to the states wasn’t the founders greatest idea.
Theyvthought the states being closet to “the people “ would ensure its integrity. If there were problems “the people” would fix it. Also by keeping it in the states hands the problem is localized and not national. Can they help if “the people” are largely indifferent?
“Can they help if “the people” are largely indifferent?”
What happens when we demonstrate, protest, demand answers to obvious election theft?
Right. They send in the guys with batons and tear gas, and then it’s off to the gulags.
Would the Founders have agreed with that?
“Chaos” is what Hobbs & Co doubtlessly prefer. Then they “amend” the results after the fact.
We keep putting the “local” people back in office who ordered that.
Coulda stopped the headline right there and probably have been more accurate.
“ Giving total control of elections to the states wasn’t the founders greatest idea.”
Imagine the Biden regime controlling elections in red and swing states.
Look at it this way, at present Democrats will fight the counting of military votes. However, with a woke military in sight, ten years from now every military vote will be counted twice.
Katie and the Maricopa Machine don’t want anything fixed, in the good sense of the word.
