Judge Rules Arizona Senate Can Access 2.1 Million 2020 Election Ballots and Equipment

Amy Furr 28 Feb 2021

A judge ruled Friday that the Arizona Senate may access 2.1 million ballots and election equipment from the state’s most populous county to audit results from the 2020 election.

“Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Timothy Thomason’s decision comes after a protracted battled between the Republican-controlled state Senate and the GOP-dominated Maricopa County board over subpoenas issued by the Senate,” the Associated Press (AP) reported.

The Board of Supervisors argued the ballots were secret, the Legislature “had no right to access them,” and the subpoenas Senate President Karen Fann issued were “for an illegitimate purpose.”

“The Senate’s lawyers contended that the constitution gives the Legislature the role of maintaining the purity of elections and make sure voter integrity is protected, that the subpoenas were legal and a proper use of legislative power,” the article said.

Judge Thomason agreed with the Senate and called the subpoenas “legal and enforceable” in his ruling.

“There is no question that the Senators have the power to issue legislative subpoenas,” the judge wrote. “The Subpoenas comply with the statutory requirements for legislative subpoenas. The Senate also has broad constitutional power to oversee elections.”

I foresee a fishing accident in the Salt River.

Fishrrman:
The leftist/communists will fight this to the AZ Supreme Court.

And if they lose there, the records (as predicted by PeteS) may simply "disappear"...

True dat.  The AZ Supremes are nothing like the SCOTUS.
