Arizona Legislature Holds Election Denier Convention

AVONDALE, AZ — Any chance that the release of a concealed attorney general report which discredited nearly every claim that Arizona's 2020 election was stolen quickly evaporated Thursday when Republicans, who sat on the Municipal Oversight & Elections Joint meeting, continued to press their belief that elections in Arizona are not safe and secure.

Only Republicans attended the hearing, while Democrats boycotted it.

The hearing focused on alleged threats and allegations of foreign and domestic interference in Arizona's election.

It featured a who's who of election deniers, such as Ivan Raiklin, who was mentioned by name during a January 6th Committee hearing for posting a memo called Operation Pence Card, a theory former Vice President Mike Pence could block the certification of election results on January 6th.
