Arizona Republican Proposes Bill That Would Allow Politicians To Overturn Elections

[Lakhota]

The bill in question says “the Legislature, and no other official, shall appoint presidential electors.”

Arizona state Sen. Anthony Kern (R), a “fake elector” for Donald Trump in 2020 who was also photographed on Capitol grounds during the Jan. 6 attack, has filed a longshot proposal to allow Arizona politicians to overturn the will of voters in presidential elections.

It’s the latest in a long line of similar bills in Arizona, where Joe Biden won the popular vote in 2020 — fueling years of Republican rage, baseless “audits” of the vote, and preemptive attempts to deliver the state for Trump in 2024.

Currently, Arizona voters, via a standard popular vote, decide who’s awarded the state’s 11 presidential electors. Presidential candidates generally need at least 270 Electoral College votes to win the White House.

Kern’s new bill, Senate Concurrent Resolution 1014, would let state legislators decide how Electoral College votes are assigned in Arizona.

How do you think Arizona voters will react to the legislature taking away their ability to vote for president?

Hopefully he gets charged and tried for his crimes.

Nothing to see here. Apparently the bill would deal with the appointment of electoral officials. Strangely enough there is no outrage that the left wants to eliminate the electoral college altogether.

Do you realize voters were pissed off when the 2020 election was stolen?

Just a handful of delusional MAGAs who are too emotionally fragile to accept electoral defeat.

Even those losers surely don’t want to give up their voting rights.

And the same people who promote this bill, Would be up in arms if the democrats ever took Control of their steakhouse, And were the ones appointing presidential electors. And they would most likely conveniently forget that they were the ones who passed the bill to begin with and blame it all on the democrats. This happens all the time on both sides of the aisle. One side will try to regulate elections in their favor with bills like this, Then attack the other side for doing the same thing if they take power.

^^^ This from a guy who promotes violating the Constitution, changing elections through fiat, murdering babies, replacing women, terrorizing judges who don't find court cases in your favor, and changing the Supreme Court at will to assure getting the outcomes you want.

 

[whitehall]

Thanks to the left wing media's collusion with the democrat party we have come to a time in history when lefties depend on the Huffington blog for political discourse and a duly elected state official is condemned for being seen in Washington during the Jan 6 demonstration. The left can't defend Brandon's policies so they deflect attention and try to digitally lynch a Arizona politician. WTF?

The right’s war on democracy continues.

A rose by another name is still a rose.

And an authoritarian by another name is still an authoritarian.

It's the Republican way!

 

[lennypartiv]

One problem with this. The Californians and Mexicans who are moving into Arizona are making it a blue state.

The 1/6 rightwing domestic terrorist attack and treasonous insurrection wasn’t an isolated incident – conservativism remains an ongoing threat to democracy.
