Maricopa County Supervisor and Rose Law Group Partner Thomas Galvin quoted in Washington Post report: RNC seizes on political affiliations of poll workers in swing states

By Patrick Marley | The Washington Post

PHOENIX — For months, conservative activists who tried to overturn the 2020 election results have urged Republicans to become poll workers so they can be on the front lines of watching for fraud. Yet for the August primary in Arizona’s Maricopa County, the number of Democrats working at the polls was 18 percent higher than the number of Republicans.

Such a gap is typical and legal, county leaders say, but Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel has seized on it in an effort to cast doubt on the way elections are runin the swing state’s most populous county that is home to Phoenix. That has angered county officials, many of them fellow Republicans, who see this as a new attempt to spread misinformation, erodefaith in the voting process, lay the foundation to contest results should GOP candidates lose and unfairly focus attention on election workers, some of whom have endured threats and harassment after Joe Biden narrowly won the state in 2020.
