Former Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard and former Maricopa County Attorney Rick Romley on Tuesday urged prosecutors to consider criminal charges against Cochise County supervisors.
Former Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard and former Maricopa County Attorney Rick Romley on Tuesday urged prosecutors to consider criminal charges against the Cochise County supervisors who refused to certify the county's election Monday.
"Their votes against certification resulted in the three-member Board failing to perform its legal duty to certify the election," said the letter from Goddard, a Democrat, and Romley, a Republican. There are also misdemeanor penalties for public officials who simply don't perform their duties and for people who violate the Election Procedures Manual, which the former prosecutors laid out in their letter.
Then she and Crosby backed off that effort and began questioning whether the voting machines were certified despite evidence from the Secretary of State's Office and the U.S. Election Assistance Commission that they indeed were.
