With the extreme amount that AZ had broken Federal election law- I'm talking about Democrat Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, specifically- I'm surprised it took this long.
Harmeet Dhillon SUED Arizona to enforce Federal voting laws.
Fontes was BEGGING for this.
KJZZ reports:
Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes continues to refuse to turn over voter data to the Department of Justice, despite months of demands and legal threats from federal officials.
“Why did I say no? Because it is my job to protect your privacy and data,” Fontes said in a video message posted to social media last week.
Fontes made the statement after the Department of Justice asked the secretary of state to turn over the state’s full voter registration list.
“When providing the electronic copy of the statewide VRL, Arizona must ensure that it contains all fields, which includes the registrant’s full name, date of birth, residential address, his or her state driver’s license number or the last four digits of the registrant’s Social Security number as required under the HAVA to register individuals for federal elections,” Harmeet K. Dhillon, an assistant U.S. attorney general, wrote in a letter on Aug. 14.
The letter is part of a monthslong back-and-forth between Fontes’ office and the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division.
Votebeat reported in June that the DOJ accused state officials in Arizona were not following a federal law requiring them to verify voters’ identities.
In a statement, a DOJ spokesperson said it is collecting the data from states to screen for ineligible voters on the rolls.
“Enforcing the nation’s elections laws is a priority in this administration and in the Civil Rights Division,” according to the statement. “Congress gave the Justice Department authority under the NVRA, HAVA, the Civil Rights Act, and other statutes to ensure that states have proper voter registration procedures and programs to maintain clean voter rolls containing only eligible voters in federal elections. The recent request by the Civil Rights Division for state voter rolls is pursuant to that statutory authority, and the responsive data is being screened for ineligible voter entries.”
So basically, DOJ tried to work with Fontes, Fontes told them to pound sand, and DOJ sued him.
He will stop at NOTHING to steal elections in Arizona. Fraud is his #1 goal.
