The Daily Beast reports:
A spokeswoman for Arizona Secretary of State (SOS) Katie Hobbs, said Thursday that Hobbs’ office “has referred to the DOJ and AG a report from a voter that the voter was approached and followed by a group of individuals when the voter was trying to drop off their ballot at an early voting drop box on Monday.”
Last Saturday, Clean Elections USA founder Melody Jennings, a minister who has name checked QAnon during appearances on indicted Trump adviser Steve Bannon’s webcast, said she had volunteers “ready to go” not just in Arizona, but in 17 other states, as well.
On Monday, Jennings took to Truth Social with an urgent request. “All Arizona patriots get to either the Mesa box or the Phoenix box …the only 2 that are outdoors… Right now,” she wrote. “There are mules getting there and doing their thing even with my people there.”

EARLY VOTING: I watched as this early voter drove up to drop off their ballot in Maricopa County, AZ
The group of “watchers” then started taking photos and recording.
I tried to ask the group what they prefer to be referred as, and wasn’t given an answer. @Garrett_Archer pic.twitter.com/KmNQjvs4y7

‘VITAMIN D’: ‘we’re just out here getting some Vitamin D’ seems to be the key response as several are watching a ballot drop box outside Maricopa Co election HQ in AZ.
This group says they’re with Clean Elections USA, but wouldn’t elaborate on if they’re volunteers, or what. pic.twitter.com/zpqoQM3CUp
