The White House told the hundreds of thousands of people who signed petitions demanding action after the botched March presidential preference election in Arizona that they would have to look elsewhere for help.
A “We the People” petition demanding a probe of alleged voter suppression in that election gathered 219,715 signatures and another, calling for a new election, got 107,321 signatures – both well over the 100,000 signature threshold at which the White House promises a response.
