Arizona Republican Party, Maricopa County Republican Committee Adopt Election Integrity Resolution
At its meeting on January 8, the Maricopa County (AZ) Republican Committee (MCRC) adopted a resolution drafted by Phoenix businessman and MCRC committeeman Tristan Manos focused on the issue of election integrity stemming from the November 3, 2020 presidential election.
The resolution expressed “appreciation and gratitude” for the audit completed in September of the county’s 2020 election returns launched by Republican members of the Arizona Senate.
In Arizona, Republicans hold a two-seat majority in both the state House of Representatives and Senate.
The resolution reads:
Whereas ongoing controversies related to the official results of the 2020 Maricopa County Election [2020 Election] remain unresolved;
Whereas Maricopa County government failed to maintain appropriate control over the administration of the election, essentially turning over partial control to Dominion Voting Systems
Whereas the primary purpose of the Audit was to uphold the most basic — and important — principles of election integrity;
Whereas the Audit contractors strived to be a part of the solution to any and all problems observed in the administration of the election, up to and including the County canvass and state certification of the election results; and
Whereas the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, Recorder’s Office, Elections Department, Attorney’s Office, and Arizona Secretary of State’s Office failed to honor or cooperate with the Audit as appropriate, thus making those government agencies part of the problem, yet those agencies blamed problems on the auditors, further undermining the integrity of the 2020 Election; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, the Arizona Republican Party hereby:
1. Expresses appreciation and gratitude for the Arizona State Senate Audit of the 2020 Election;
2. Calls upon Maricopa County government to immediately cooperate with the Audit and immediately terminate contracts with Dominion Voting Systems (DVS), including DVS personnel;
3. Urges the Arizona Attorney General to remain committed to a comprehensive investigation of the administration and certification of the 2020 Election; and
4. Encourages the Arizona State Legislature and Arizona Governor to immediately enact responsible election laws further upholding election integrity in Arizona elections.
