GOP Officials in Arizona Charged With Conspiring to Delay Election Results

Cochise County supervisors face felony charges after balking at certifying 2022 state-race outcomes

Two Republicans officials in Arizona’s Cochise County were charged with felonies Wednesday over their initial refusal to certify the results of the November 2022 midterm elections in which a slate of GOP candidates backed by former President Donald Trump lost.

The indictment, announced by Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, is the latest instance of Democratic officeholders charging Republican local officials who amplified voter-fraud claims with attempting to undermine democracy.
