Voldemort Sues AZ County Over “Illegal Alien Voting”

The Arizona Daily Star reports:

The claim by America First Legal, formed by a former Donald Trump adviser, is that Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer is disobeying state and federal laws by not using tools at his disposal to find out if any of the more than 26,000 people who signed up to vote using a federal form are ineligible to cast ballots.

This follows a letter sent to Richer from Rogers last month threatening to sue if those actions weren’t taken. Richer responded that his office is complying with the law.

It wasn’t just Richer, however, who got a letter. Identical demands went out to the recorders in all 15 counties. Some, like Pima County Recorder Gabriella Cázares-Kelly, also wrote back saying they believe they already are acting legally.

From Voldemort’s group:

Today, on behalf of its clients, AFL is fulfilling its legal promise and suing Maricopa County. “America First Legal is leading the charge to keep illegal aliens from voting in 2024. Maricopa County, in direct violation of state law, is refusing to remove illegal alien voters from the rolls. We are taking decisive action: suing Maricopa County for unlawfully permitting illegal aliens and foreign citizens to interfere in the 2024 election,” said Stephen Miller.

Rather obviously, this is meant to lay the groundwork to contest the result of the November election. Maricopa County includes Phoenix.
