| Arizona Senate falls vote short of holding Maricopa County supervisors in contempt |
| 2021-02-11 |
| [Tuscon.com] A bid by Senate Republicans to hold Maricopa County supervisors in contempt faltered Monday as one GOP politician balked. Sen. Paul Boyer, R-Glendale, said he believes the Senate does have the power to use its subpoena power to demand access to the county’s voting machines and ballots from the Nov. 3 election. "That authority is clear, and it will be used if necessary," Boyer said. But he said he believes that power should be used "sparingly and reluctantly." |

| #5 Lefties learned long ago that you can get what you want if you target a handful of people with money or threats. |

| #4 Ayuh. About that thing going around saying we're in good shape because the GOP has majorities at the state level. |

| #3 Perhaps, elected officials from the Right need to revisit "The Federalist Papers". They might then comprehend the importance of their failure in political activity, decision making, and commitment to the Republic. |

| #2 The Arizona GOP is a rats nest. This is the heritage of John McCain, may he burn in hell. |

| #1 Toothless threats. The criminals got away with it because of gutless legislators "That authority is clear, and it will be used if necessary," Boyer said. Maricopa deliberately defied subpeonas and tampered with the evidence. What more does that arrogant ass need? Primary him, hard. His days must be numbered. If he will not impose consequences on criminals, then consequences must be imposed on him for blocking neccesary actions. |
