Native American tribes say two new Arizona election laws won't make it any easier for their voters.

and a legion of his supporters have refused to accept his loss in Arizona and other battleground states, resulting in a partisan review of the ballots cast in the state's most populous county.

The attorney general and Ducey didn't sign off on the changes. The Democratic Party has since sued seeking a five-day curing period for mailed ballots. A U.S. District Court judge initially agreed, but the decision was challenged. Oral arguments are scheduled for July in federal appeals court. The secretary of state doesn't have final say over the elections manual, and Ugenti-Rita said promises shouldn't have been made that couldn't be kept. She said the Navajo Nation's anger is wrongly directed at the Legislature.

Patty Hansen, the recorder in the state's largest county by size, said she's disappointed with the new law because it treats voters differently based on the error they've made.Submitting mailed ballots earlier without a signature could mean an hours-long trip to make the fix, said Democratic state Rep. Jasmine Blackwater-Nygren, who is Navajo. The new law says county officials have to make a reasonable effort to contact voters.

They can rejoin what will now be called the active early voting list at any time, request a mailed ballot for a single election or vote in person. But a ballot won’t automatically arrive in their mailboxes.

Yet Republicans were PRETENDING to support Native Americans in the 2020 election... ...and some NativeAmericans actually believed them !

As democrats and republicans, legal, verifiable voting should be our common goal.

Turn to God as the KING JAMES BIBLE been challenge by COURTS AND COVID-19 AND WE ALSO BEEN CHALLENGE IN THE MIDDLE EAST!! *NOTE I ask GOD for a NIV LIFE APPLICATION BIBLE. BECAUSE prophecy hasn't been ACTIVATED in todays generation. I believe we have a challenge by COVID and WAR

Yankee's Democracy

OFCOURSE

That's exactly the motivation and intention of the QOP... The less people can vote, the more others are demoralized and don't vote too.. Therefor they expect to have an easy win in 2022.. And I fear, they are right. Tx06 last week should have been an eye opener..

That's the whole idea. 😑😠
