Southern Arizona Lawmaker Seeks To Ensure If Trump Off Arizona Ballot, Biden Would Be As Well
"A Marana lawmaker wants to ensure that if Donald Trump is knocked off the Arizona ballot, the same would happen to Joe Biden. The proposal by Republican Rep. Cory McGarr spells out that if the nominee for president from either major party is disqualified from the 2024 ballot, then the name of the other party’s choice “shall not be printed on the ballot in this state.” And if it’s too late to keep the name off the ballot, the legislation says that “any votes for that nominee or that nominee’s electors shall not be tallied or included in any canvass.”
