Arizona Senator Seeks to 'Nullify the Results' of Maricopa County Election with New Lawsuit
The Western Journal ^ | December 14, 2022 | Michael Austin

Posted on 12/14/2022 1:53:03 PM PST by fidelis

On Election Day, Maricopa County, Arizona, found itself at the center of the national conversation thanks to a number of malfunctioning election machines, incredibly long lines and other issues.

The county is the most populous by far in a state where Democrat Katie Hobbs won the gubernatorial challenge by a mere 0.6 percent (roughly 17,000 votes) over her Republican opponent, former local news anchor-turned-conservative firebrand Kari Lake.

Because of this, Arizona State Senator Sonny Borrelli filed a lawsuit on Monday. The suit alleges that voters in the more rural Mohave County were disenfranchised by the malfeasance of Maricopa County election officials. As a result, Borrelli is calling for officials to “nullify the results.”

The suit names numerous Maricopa County election officials and even Katie Hobbs herself; as secretary of state, Hobbs was responsible for overseeing her own election.

Pointing to “multiple systemic failures,” including reliance on unreliable software, Borelli argues that the county’s actions on Election Day violated Arizona statutory law.

Specifically, the software in question is an artificial intelligence program used by the county for the purposes of signature verification.

Probably a silly thought but the other day an idea came to me: what if U.S. Senator Sinema’s defection from the Democrat Party was the first rat jumping off a sinking ship. Could she have an idea that election fraud allegations/investigations/court rulings are going to turn decidedly against the Democrats and she’s trying to put distance between herself and the party?

A win here for the plaintiff will be a game changer.

Let's home some day, somewhere one of these lawsuits gains traction, the courts do the right thing, and expose all the evil cheating.
Senator Sonny Borrelli..."disenfranchised by the malfeasance of Maricopa County election officials."
"Malfeasance" is a good word:
noun
1. Misconduct or wrongdoing, especially by a public official.

2. Evil-doing; the doing of that which ought not to be done; wrongful conduct, especially official misconduct; violation of a public trust or obligation; specifically, the doing of an act which is positively unlawful or wrongful, in contradistinction to misfeasance, or the doing of a lawful act in a wrongful manner. The term is often inappropriately used instead of misfeasance.

3. The doing of an act which a person ought not to do; evil conduct; an illegal deed.

These are very corrupt people running these election dog and pony shows.

I gather Fix News is not covering this, because Paul Ryan says all election results are to be accepted no matter what?

I don’t see any voter fraud, I haven’t investigated any voter fraud, because there is no voter fraud, which is why I don’t see any voter fraud, because I haven’t looked for any voter fraud because there is no voter fraud. . .

This is an important point. Even if Mohave County (and every other Arizona county) elections were squeaky clean and carried out competently, all of the other counties votes were nullified because of the obvious shenanigans in the (by far) most populous county in the state. It effectively skewered the overall result for the entire state.

Love to see it happen, but there’s next to no chance it will happen. Even if he got the case to court, it would likely take years before it settled, surely past the ‘26 election, making the suit moot by legal standards.

We'll see. It's worth a try. Better than crying in our beer, anyway.

The case that the NC Legislature has in SCOTUS right now, could be an absolute game changer.

Didn’t it come out that the software program they were using had some serious issues with it, to the point that no one else was using it? The issues were know and they used them anyway?

75 minutes for us. We voted at the Scottsdale Indian Bend Wash community center. There were only ten voting booths. I heard on the radio a Maricopa official said there were to be 25 at each location.

do you know how many were at your location?

No enough. The line looked like opening day at Disneyland’s Matterhorn ride. No joke...

All that and I get some sticker like small children at birthday parties get. You voted! You’re a good boy Johnny! Here’s a sticker....Gak~

Weeks and weeks later, these SOB’s are still playing with the ballots. Corrupt to the core.

I think she became an Independent purely for selfish reasons -- the Democrats won't be able to primary her for her disloyalty, and if they run a Dem candidate, the D votes will be split and the Republican would win (in a fair election).

Not very good.

This was not just about the race for Governor, but also for Secretary of State, Attorney General, and arguably United States Senator!

There are quite a number of lawsuits about this election! I hope that more than one of them sticks!!!!
