Newly released records show the top Republicans in Arizona’s largest county dodged calls from Donald Trump and his allies in the aftermath of the 2020 election, as the then-president sought to prevent the certification of Joe Biden’s victory in key battleground states.
The records — including voicemails and text messages — shed light on another state where Trump, his attorneys and others mounted a behind-the-scenes pressure campaign on Republican officials overseeing elections. Days before Congress certified Biden’s win on Jan. 6, Trump pressed Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to find enough votes to overturn Biden’s win there.
Trump tried to reach Clint Hickman, then the chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, on Jan. 3, shortly before midnight in Washington and hours after news broke of Trump’s call with Raffensperger.
“Hello, sir. This is the White House operator I was calling to let you know that the president’s available to take your call if you’re free,” the White House operator said in a voicemail. “If you could please give us a call back, sir, that’d be great. You have a good evening.” …

If the calls were dodged, how do they know what the calls were for?
The terrorist-Associated Press weighs in...
Telepathy.
At ApePee, they know what we're thinking.
The same way the “impeachment managers” knew what Trump’s phone call to Zelensky was for, of course.
Even if they knew about the nature if the calls so what? If there were problems who would complain, the aggrieved party certainly not the democrats. In court it’s called standing. Oh right , depends on the court. F SCOTUS.
And what kinds of calls came from the Soros and Dominion and DNC bosses making sure the elections were fixed and corrupt?
All the many stories of ballot tampering, machines favoring Dems in counting, more Dem votes tallied than he total people in the area and so on. Many in the hundreds of thousands counting key states together. Asking if late night van arrivals could be counted in totals without news media being there.
How about those phone calls?
Is this on the same level of criminality as say . . . telling the Ukraine to fire a prosecutor investigating your sons shady dealings OR the US will be withholding aid money (in the millions)? Asking for a friend.
Newly released records show the top Republicans in Arizona’s largest county............wrong
Newly released records show the top Assistant Democrats in Arizona’s largest county ............ Fixed it
Even when they have been discredited, the Democrat mouthpieces such as the Associated Press continue to lie.
These lying ApePee newspuppets are so ashamed of their own lies that they published this pile of rotting dogsqueezins anonymously...
Here it comes folks, the coordinated wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Questions about the "election" are a one-way street for the Democrat media...
The sad thing is that the lies continue and nobody calls them out on their continued lies.
So, Trump people called Arizona officials to complain about the obvious fraud in the election? I hope so.
Just another #orangemanbad mainstream media story.
This is idiotic. Trump had every right — and good reason — to urge Arizona Republicans to do what they could to ensure the results were fair and correct. He’d be derelict if he didn’t.
Absolute bull shit. They are retreading old stories. I heard a tape of the call at the time. The AP is yet again taking things out of context and pushing their eff'n Marxist agenda. Time to take to the media. It needs to get ugly.
Liars.
Desperation time...
AP has to brew up some anti-Trump venom for CNN, MSNBC, etc. to use as a basis for news reporting on the AUDIT...
It is racist to demand an honest election.
