BREAKING: @weareoversight public records lawsuit against State Senate President @FannKfann (et al) results in new trove of documents being released.

bit.ly/2TJW0JC

(h/t @modernista64)
DM me with any finds in the 500 page trove.
Although, @weareoversight has helpfully highlighted a dozen or two. (Right hand column)
Here's an interesting one: @RudyGiuliani was using noted "audit" cheerleader Christina Bobb (@OANN) as an intermediary with State Senate Pres. @FannKfann.

NOT your typical journalistic function. Image
BREAKING: @RudyGiuliani had "numerous" conversations in Dec. with State Senate Pres. @FannKfann "trying to get this done". PLUS, she got a personal call from Trump.

Rudy/Donald sensed progress, so they kept after her. They had gotten nowhere with Raffensperger (GA).
⤵️ Image
A (kinda) amusing one:
Emailer Kat A. messages all 16 GOP State Senators, says a group is collecting 200-500 signatures/day to recall all of them. Will rip up petitions IF Senate hires Jovan Pulitzer for the audit.

Fann asks for patience. Oh, and please don't threaten. March 17, 2021 email to all...
IMPORTANT: Here's an email (from 4/26) where State Senate President @FannKfann tells a correspondent they can help pay for the recount/audit by going to the (dark money) Voices and Votes website. Image

Some really excellent questions from @ThomasGalvin & the other Supes at today's meeting about Nov's election!

The 2 page ballot is thanks to the Leg, and it is going to cause many problems (and take longer to tabulate).

Examples: longer lines at printers, voting booths...
1/5 Image
...tabulators, etc.

The 2 page ballot is going to cause a host of other problems. Mail-in voters are going to have to be especially careful not to mix up the pages with a family member living elsewhere in the county (eg filling out ballots together)....
2/5
...Even if they appear to be identical p. 2's, they are coded by precinct, and both would be rejected. (Still not sure whether/how they'd be notified.)

Also, can't forget 1 page, and try to mail it back later.

Vote Center issue: Tabulator reads 1st page, 2nd misreads....

JOIN US at 2pm as we cover the much-delayed oral arguments in @KariLake's 2022 Election Contest appeal.

The ever-effervescent @tomryanlaw and I will bring you every thrilling moment of the 50 (scheduled) minutes of arguments. Image
As always, we encourage you to follow along with us. Neither of us traveled to Tucson for today's festivities, so we're depending on this YouTube link:
We get to this point from a long and winding road.

Lake fought the transfer of her appeal to the Tucson-based Division 2 (of the Ct of Appeals). But, it got briefed and the 3-judge panel took it under advisement back in November. (Noone had asked for oral argument.)

LIVE NOW: The Arizona Supreme Court is about to hear oral arguments in the case to decide whether Arizona's Civil War-era total ABORTION BAN is back in effect, or whether the 2022-passed 15-week ban superseded it (despite Leg's attempts to both regulate and keep the total ban). Image
LINK TO WATCH the hour-long oral arguments, beginning at 9:30:
supremestateaz.granicus.com/player/event/9…
The first half (approximately) will be attorneys for the Intervenors in the case, Dr. Eric Hazelrigg and Yavapai County Attorney Dennis McGrane.

The 2nd half will be split among both the Appellants and Appellees. Planned Parenthood/Pima County, and the AZ AG's.

It's complicated

Welp, PW is off today. So you are stuck with me, your intrepid court watcher, Tom Ryan. Let's get started. This hearing has been going on for 1 hour now. Logged in just in time to hear Mr. Blehm argue with Judge Hannah. It did not go well. TR
Kari Lake is NOT in the courtroom even though she is the Plaintiff. Wendy Rogers is in the galley though. Judge Hannah is now correcting Blehm on who can verify signatures on Petitions and Initiatives. TR
Not sure who this witness is. She's doing her best to understand and answer Blehm's questions about different forms of public signatures. Hannah asks Blehm to move on. TR

Well, goooooood afternoon Arizona! For all you out there keeping score on all the butt kicking going on in the MAGA litigation realm, I've got a little refresher course for you to read before we get started in Judge Tuchi's Court on the Alan "the Dersh" Dershowitz OSC hearing. TR
The hardworking journos at AZ LAW have put together this handy-dandy Sanctions Scorecard for your ease of reference. It's a lovely, hop, skip and a sneeze down Memory Lane for who is getting slapped with sanctions in MAGA land. TR
arizonaslaw.blogspot.com/search?q=Tuchi
Today there is a hearing before U.S. Dist. of Ariz Judge Tuchi that begins today at 3 p.m. to determine whether Dershowitz should ALSO be held liable for sanctions that Judge Tuchi has already determined he should apply for the in court misrepresentations. TR

This is NOT how laws are made or changed.⤵️
The *resolution* passed on a party line vote. Here is the action portion.

Note that it:
1. includes no enforcement provisions - woulda sent up red flags,
2. does not even direct Borelli to write the ltr
3. etc

SCR1377: bit.ly/SCR1377AZsLaw Image
Of course, it *should* go without saying the "independent state legislature" theory does NOT even purport to give them the right to pass laws w/o the Governor.

Rather, it claims the COURTS cannot review/overrule the Leg in area of elections. You *still* need a valid law. PW
