An Arizona Republican is so far down into the Big Lie rabbit hole that the newly elected member of the state’s House of Representatives says that she will not cast her vote on any bill unless the 2022 election is redone. Damn, I need a gig like that. I just won’t show up to work. I’m sure that will go over well with Karoli.
And there is no mechanism in the Constitution that allows elections to be redone. How do Republicans not understand this?
Liz Harris, recently elected to represent Legislative District 13, issued a statement on her campaign website saying, in part, that “it has become obvious that we need to hold a new election immediately.”
“Although I stand to win my Legislative District race it has become obvious that we need to hold a new election immediately. There are clear signs of foul play from machine malfunctions, chain of custody issues and just blatant mathematical impossibilities,” she wrote. “How can a Republican State Treasurer receive more votes than a Republican Gubernatorial or Senate candidate?”
“I call on all state legislators to join me in demanding a new election,” she added. “I will now be withholding my vote on any bills in this session without this new election in protest to what is clearly a potential fraudulent election.”
12 News debunked all of the crazy lady’s claims. Here’s an example:
Harris also questioned the fact that Treasurer Kimberly Yee (R) won her election with a greater count of votes than any other candidate.
“How can a Republican State Treasurer receive more votes than a Republican Gubernatorial or Senate candidate?” Harris asked.
In Arizona, voters are allowed to cast a split ticket. This means that they don’t have to vote exclusively along party lines. Yee also received more votes than any Democratic candidate running for office.
It’s not the first time that Harris has been involved in trying to overturn the results of an election.
It’s probably better if Republicans stop voting on bills because their feels are hurt. They can stop dragging us back to the 1950s. If stupidity was painful, Liz Harris would be in the emergency room.
