Board for state’s largest county, encompassing Phoenix, votes 4-1 to go to court to fight turning over ballot data and machines.
Arizona’s largest county refused Friday to comply with a subpoena from the state Legislature, going to court instead to fight turning over election evidence to a Senate committee investigating alleged ballot irregularities.
The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors voted 4-1 to authorize the lawsuit in Superior Court in Phoenix, arguing the Legislature’s demands are overly broad, could pierce voter privacy and constitute “a draconian abuse of power.”
The lawsuit contests a subpoena from the state Senate Judiciary Committee, arguing the request for evidence was unlawful, could violate ballot secrecy and did not give the county enough time to comply.
The fact that they’re fighting it implies that they have something to hide…or simply don’t want President Trump to be re-elected…..
It’s how they play this chess match.
Hmmmmmmm Got something to hide?
I guess it`s true what they say, ALL politics is local. we got states fighting the federal goverment we got counties fighting their state,we got cities fighting their counties we got districts within cities fighting the city. it reminds of the old saying: “Oh what a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive”
