In the week following the 2022 midterm elections, a handful of high profile Republican candidates and party leaders have made statements indicating a shifting perspective about the party’s voter suppression strategy.
On Friday, Oct. 28, Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich (R) issued an advisory opinion permitting counties to conduct hand count audits of ballots in this year’s elections.
On Monday, Oct. 24, the Cochise County Board of Supervisors voted to adopt a proposal to hand count all of its ballots in this year’s elections.
On Wednesday, Oct. 5, a right-wing organization called Look Ahead America announced plans for a pre-election audit of voting lists in nine states that feature some of the most competitive elections this year.
On Friday afternoon, the Arizona Senate released the long-awaited and frequently delayed results of its “audit” of the 2020 election results in Maricopa County.
On Thursday, the Arizona Superior Court in Maricopa County denied the state Senate’s request to dismiss a case seeking records of the Republican-led “audit” of the 2020 election.
The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors announced on Monday that it will not use any voting equipment that the county was required to hand over to the conservative firm Cyber Ninjas in future elections.
This week, Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs (D) launched a new website where her office will publish observed errors, infractions and violations made during the Republican-controlled audit of Maricopa County’s 2020 election results.
