Two Republicans indicted
#AZag Kris Mayes (D)
has announced felony indictments of two #GOP Cochise County Supervisors, Peggy Judd & Terry Thomas “Tom” Crosby, w/interference w/an election officer & conspiracy.
#ElectionFraud: it's a GOP thing.
The indictments mark a rare example of potential criminal consequences in battleground Arizona, where county officials, state lawmakers and GOP candidates have helped delegitimize election outcomes and procedures.

BREAKING: Election contest filed in the ultra-tight #AZAG race, by GOP candidate @AbrahamHamadeh (&
@GOP)
By statute, these election contests are to be filed within the 5 days of the official canvass. (Set for 12/5)
I posted my final analysis of the potential impact of the COVID death rate divide between Republicans & Democrats on 2022 midterm election results back in September. According to official CDC data, around 815,000 Americans died of COVID-19 between 10/31/20 - 09/10/22. Of those, I had estimated that perhaps 569,000 had actually voted for Biden or Trump. The total number has tragically risen by around 7,000 more since mid-September, which means the number of 2020 voters who've died is also likely around 4,900 higher. Nationally, Joe Biden received 81,283,501 votes to Donald Trump's 74,223,975 votes. If COVID impacted both voting blocs at identical rates, you'd normally expect roughly 9.5% more Biden voters to have died of COVID over the past 2 years than Trump voters...or roughly 25,000 more Biden voters. Instead, however, I estimated that nationally, perhaps ~150,000 more Americans who voted for TRUMP in 2020 had died of COVID-19 between the 2020 general election and the 2022 midterm election than those who voted for Biden. Several obvious caveats apply here: "Voted for Trump" or "Voted for Biden" isn't a perfect overlap with Republicans and Democrats It also isn't a perfect overlap with how those ~569K people would have voted this year.
