A Maricopa County judge has ruled that the Arizona Senate subpoenas demanding the 2020 election ballots and voting machines for audit are valid.
In the ruling, the judge wrote that “the court finds that the subpoenas are legal and enforceable.”
“There is no question that the Senators have the power to issue legislative subpoenas. The subpoenas comply with the statutory requirements for legislative subpoenas The Senate also has broad constitutional power to oversee elections,” the ruling continued. “The Arizona legislature clearly has the power to investigate and examine election reform matters.
Accordingly, the Senators have the power to subpoena material as part of an inquiry into election reform measures. As such, the Subpoenas have a proper legislative purpose. The Subpoenas also do not violate separation of powers principles.”
The judge added that “production of the subpoenaed materials would not violate confidentiality laws.”
In response to the judge’s ruling, the state’s Senate Republicans issued a statement saying “we are grateful for the Superior Court judge’s ruling this morning that the Senate subpoenas are legal and enforceable, and it is entitled to audit voting equipment and ballots used in the November election.”
The statement pointed out that the ruling makes it clear that the judge understands this is about getting answers to questions that voters have.

I'm sitting over here wondering why it takes a judge's ruling to prove that a state Senate had constitutional and legal authority to subpoena ballots from a state elections board that is only empowered by the authority that same state Senate gave it.
As far as I am concerned, every...single...election official needs to be fired ASAP and banned from ever having anything to do with another election again.
It was always illegal for state election officials to not comply with info requests from the state legislature, whether a judge ruled on it or not.

I sure hope so. It’s no fun in Joe Biden’s USSA. I’ve lost 500 dollars in my retirement account this week.
We are suffering to a man who didn’t even win.
Heartbreaking.
