Republican lawmakers who met December 13 to discuss allegations of voter fraud in Pima County during the 2020 presidential election provided a glimpse at what some of the policy battles in next year’s legislative session could look like.
The discussion, billed as a hearing, was held at the Hilton El Conquistador Hotel and Convention Center in Oro Valley, and featured many of the same lawmakers who attended a similar gathering November 30, 2020, in Phoenix to float allegations of a stolen election.
In the December 13 meeting, lawmakers looked to the future.
There was talk of holding audits regularly, and of canvassing the voter rolls, including potentially going door-to-door to confirm voting records, even though plans for performing a door-to-door canvass as part of the Senate’s audit of the 2020 election in Maricopa County were scrapped after the U.S. Department of Justice warned it could violate voter intimidation laws.
Seth Keshel, one of the presenters. claims that based on his analysis of increased turnout and changes in voting patterns in 2020 that millions of votes nationwide were falsely added to President Biden’s count.
