The threats, doxing and online harassment that began during the pandemic and continue today have at times prompted him and his family to flee their home. In May 2021, Gates sought professional help from a therapist and, soon after, learned he was experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder, triggered by the strain of his public fight against falsehoods about the county’s election-related work.

Mr. Gate’s malicious incompetence has been an albatross on Maricopa County

He has done irreparable damage to election Integrity & the people of Arizona.

We encourage Mr. Gates to never involve himself in representative politics again.

He has forfeited that right. https://t.co/xaW4f0kO2t
