Documents Detail Republican Push To Force
Hand Counts In Arizona Election |
|
|
Records show Tom Crosby and Peggy Judd, two of three board supervisors, advocated for hand-counting ballots. Composite: The Guardian/Javier Palma/ Cassidy Araiza |

"Republican elected officials in a small Arizona county talked with state lawmakers and activists about hand-counting ballots there in 2022 and urged their counterparts in other counties to push for hand counts as well, newly released public records show. |
|
The records from Cochise county, a Republican stronghold along the US-Mexico border, only came to light after a lawsuit from a watchdog group, American Oversight, and took well over a year to be released. The original records request from American Oversight was filed in November 2022." |

"“They will not stop,” Chioma Chukwu, interim executive director of American Oversight, told the Guardian. “They’re going to continue until they get what they want, which is pushing for hand counts, delaying the certification of election results if the election does not go their way in November.”" |

Arizona GOP County Officials Face Charges
After Refusing To Certify Election On Time |
Two
Republican supervisors of Arizona's Cochise
County are facing criminal charges after
they risked more than 47,000 people's votes
by refusing to meet the state's legal
deadline for certifying the 2022 midterm
elections. The supervisors — Tom
Crosby and Peggy Judd — are
charged with felony offenses of
conspiring to delay the counting of the
county's votes and interfering with the
ability of Arizona's top election official,
the secretary of state, to complete the
statewide counting, according to the Nov. 27
indictment released by the Arizona state
attorney general's office on Wednesday. |

'Chaos': GOP Officials In AZ County Cost
Taxpayers Hundreds Of Thousands In Election
Fights |
"Two Republican county supervisors in a
solidly red Arizona county are costing
taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars
in multiple unsuccessful election-related
crusades in the courts. The Guardian reports
that Tom
Crosby and Peggy Judd — who both
sit on the Cochise County Board of
Supervisors — have now been subpoenaed as
part of a possible investigation by the
Arizona Attorney General's office. Both
Crosby and Judd have tried consistently to
switch the county's ballot-counting process
to a hand count rather than a machine count,
resulting in various lawsuits against the
county, along with subsequent legal
settlements totaling roughly $300,000.
Despite Cochise County voting for former
President Donald
Trump in 2020 by a 19-point margin,
Crosby refused to certify his county's
election results even after a judge
compelled him to do so." |

2 Cochise County Supervisors Ordered To Pay
Legal Fees |
"Two Cochise County supervisors have been
ordered to pay up for refusing to certify
the 2022 election. A Pima County judge
ordered Republicans Peggy Judd and
Tom Crosby to pay more than $36,000 in legal
fees. It's unclear if the money will come
out of their pockets or if taxpayers will
pick up the tab. Judd and Crosby refused to
certify the county-wide election results,
claiming the electronic tabulators were not
properly certified, but they were sued by
the Secretary of State's office and lost –
and now have to pay the legal fees for the
opposing side." |

Supreme Court
Says No To Transfer Of Hand-Count
Case From Appeals Court |
"As
Supervisors Peggy Judd and Tom
Crosby and County Recorder David
Stevens attempt to proceed with a
limited hand count of ballots, ignoring
the temporary injunction against it, they
decided to request their case go directly to
the Arizona Supreme Court as recommended by
attorneys Bryan Blehm and Alexander
Kolodin. The court said not so fast" |

Why An Arizona
County Turned Down $1.9 Million In COVID
Relief |
"The $1.9 million pandemic aid would have
gone a long way in Cochise County, a rural
frontier region where a winter of infections
has overwhelmed hospitals. There was money
for case follow-up. Testing in remote
breeding towns. Funds to strengthen the
Arizona County Health Department. But the
county’s Republican-controlled Board of
Overseers stunned many residents and
healthcare workers by voting last month to
reject federal money, becoming
one of the few places in America to deny
COVID-19 aid. from Washington. “We’re done,”
said Peggy Judd, one of two Republican
supervisors who voted against accepting the
money. “We treat it like the common cold.”" |

"Yes" vote would allow ranch
dogs to be neglected or

It would allow the owner of a
