[B]Arizona election officials who refused to certify 2022 results charged with conspiracy[/B]


November 29, 2023 at 6:04 p.m.
Two rural Arizona election officials who attempted to block the 2022 results have been charged with crimes, Arizona’s attorney general announced Wednesday.

Peggy Judd, 61, and Tom Crosby, 64, were charged with conspiracy and interfering with an election officer.

“The repeated attempts to undermine our democracy are unacceptable,” Attorney General Kim Mayes said in a statement. “I took an oath to uphold the rule of law, and my office will continue to enforce Arizona’s elections laws and support our election officials as they carry out the duties and responsibilities of their offices.”

Following the elections in November 2022, Judd and Crosby refused to certify the results, even though no one was disputing them. They instead aligned with conspiracy theorists who doubted electronic voting machines.

Judd and Crosby’s refusal led to procedural fights with statewide officials, which resulted in a court ordering Judd and Crosby to do their jobs. The county supervisors later met and voted 2-0 to certify the results. Crosby didn’t show up.

“They keep telling us, ‘That’s illegal. You’re gonna go to jail,’ but it hasn’t been so, you know, law is up to interpretation. Only the judge in the end can say,” Judd told the Daily Beast days before backing down and voting to certify.

The two supervisors have peddled COVID vaccine conspiracies and election fraud conspiracies in the past. Judd was in attendance at the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol that attempted to prevent Joe Biden’s electoral victory. She claimed she didn’t go inside the building.

“I didn’t think there was anything weird about marching on the Capitol,” she told the Tucson Sentinel later that month. “I kind of almost felt like it was equal to the Martin Luther King march.”

Low bar. I didn't watch, but DeSantis just had to point out he was right in his decisions when it came to COVID while Newsome was catastrophically wrong.

So you watched 2 Governors cry about each other and neither one is going to be president. Niki is the rising Republican star.

If you like a talk about actual policy differences, this was the debate for you. Newsome tried to make it about bullshit with his Kamala remark, but it didn’t work.

DeSantis went thru California policies under Newsome comparing to policies in Florida…it was an ass kicking.

I didn't watch it but if what you say is true then Newsome did a piss poor job. DeSantis has some of the worst policies he has pushed through:

Highest teen suicide rates because of his laws? Check
Biggest loss of biodiversity because of poor land use and exotic animal laws? Check
Lack of home owners insurance options? Check
Refusal to deal with climate change? Check
Giving money to terrorist Saudi states and refusing to support local businesses? Check

A trained monkey could put DeSantis in his place so Newsome must be inept. In the end though Newsome is probably the winner he doesn't have to wake up the next morning realizing he is DeSantis
