BREAKING UPDATE: The Arizona Supreme Court has affirmed Judge Mikitish’s ruling from this morning, meaning the “Free and Fair Elections” initiative is officially DEAD and will NOT be on the ballot this November, after out of state liberal organizations spent $7 millions or buy signatures.

“IT IS ORDERD affirming the trial court’s August 26, 2022 Amended Final Judgement disqualifying the initiative from the ballot”

“Thankfully, after additional review by the courts, their social justice common core math was discarded, and the correct statutory calculation was used to determine that they lacked the minimum number of signatures to qualify for the ballot.” https://azfree.org/blog/2022/08/30/stopping-the-liberal-election-initiative-was-a-major-victory-for-secure-elections-and-the-rule-of-law/

Yesterday, Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer apparently violated election law, illegally using public resources to influence the outcome of an election. https://twitter.com/azvoterid/status/1580285523465150464?s=21&t=ns2zdIQv5SoX6VYwn78g9Q

CALL TO ACTION: Let’s let Stephen Richer know we will be voting YES on Prop 309, and that he should follow the law! Resond to Richer here: https://twitter.com/stephen_richer/status/1579946594916773888?s=21&t=ns2zdIQv5SoX6VYwn78g9Q

“Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer is the president of AACR and is the one who distributed the anti-Prop 309 statement on Tuesday. Yet according to election law expert Timothy La Sota, it appears Richer has violated two Arizona laws in connection with the statement, which was also posted to a website controlled by Maricopa County.”

“But that is not the only problem stemming from Richer’s distribution of the anti-Prop 309 statement, which he said on Tuesday afternoon was approved by AACR members by “unanimous voice vote (no nays, all ays).” Richer also tweeted that “14 of the 15 counties were present” for the vote, with only Apache County absent.”

“According to Cochise County Recorder David Stevens, the inference voters will make from the AACR statement and Richer’s social media comments is that all 15 county recorders are against Prop 309.”

“That, Stevens says, is not true. In fact, he is an adamant supporter of Prop 309 and has demanded Richer correct the AACR statement and clear any misperception.”

Thank you grassroots activists who let your lawmakers know that refundable tax credits are direct subsidies and should be rejected!

Thank you Rep Austin Smith for running this constitutional referral to protect our party primaries and girding us against radical experimental election systems that disenfranchise voters such as “ranked choice voting!” HCR2033 has passed the house and senate and will appear on the 2024 ballot.
