In states across the country, far-right Trump Republicans are coming out of the woodwork and running for Secretary of State to spread the Big Lie and try to take over their states’ elections. (Help stop them here.)
Politico has been sounding the alarm because Secretaries of State are the top election officials responsible for running FAIR elections.
The Democratic Association of Secretaries of State (DASS) is working to elect Democratic, pro-voter Secretaries of State next year. But the office is up for election in 26 states, with major races in Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, and Michigan. Republicans are angling for as many of those states as they can get.
In Arizona, Rep. Mark Finchem is a driving force behind the fraudulent election audit in Arizona and promotes Q-Anon conspiracy theories on social media and television. The Arizona Mirror reports that video footage revealed that Finchem was as little as 100 yards from the Capitol as rioters overwhelmed police and stormed the building on Jan 6.
In Georgia, Jody Hice, who led the opposition to certifying Biden’s win, is trying to primary Republican Brad Raffensperger -- from the right!
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
