"Elected officials and candidates for office in 2022 continue to challenge and question the results of the 2020 presidential election in Arizona.
 
The results have been examined and re-examined, challenged in court and in a monthslong ballot review. No evidence has been found of widespread fraud or error in the results.
 
Yet candidates deny the outcome. Others don't quite go as far. But they raise questions about potential irregularities they say could have influenced the vote and should be examined.
 
The Arizona Republic is listing candidates by category by the race that they are entered in. This list is not complete and will be updated throughout the 2022 election season.
 

Election deniers
These candidates in Arizona races deny that Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election, either in Arizona or nationwide."

Bad Checks, Repossessions: Congressional Candidate Acknowledges Past Struggles With Money

May 10, 2022
 
"Republican congressional hopeful Walt Blackman likes to talk about the past, whether it's his two decades in the military or his wife's family founding the town of Snowflake.
 
What he doesn't play up is his recurring problem with money.
 
Blackman, R-Snowflake, faced criminal prosecution over bad checks in Texas, lost multiple cars to repossession in California and was tagged with a default judgment over credit card debt last month in Arizona.
 
It's a rundown of what he characterized as “financial struggles” that stretches back 30 years and includes his time in the Army, his efforts as a self-employed businessman and now as a state lawmaker hoping to replace Rep. Tom O'Halleran, D-Ariz., in Congress."...

In other words, as PROVEN by this bill, Republicans and ammosexuals find it wrong to discriminate against inanimate objects but have no problem discriminating against people.
