America First Legal (AFL) on Wednesday announced a new “landmark lawsuit” in Arizona againstMaricopa County, its board of supervisors, and Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer alleging the county has violated various state election laws since 2020.
AFL’s James Rogers said in a statement that “Maricopa County’s errors, lapses, and mistakes in administering elections have seriously eroded” the “trust that elections are free and fair,” which he noted underpins the “legitimacy of our government.”
“This lawsuit seeks to hold Maricopa County accountable for its failures and to restore Arizonans’ trust in their elections,” Rogers stated.
