‘Emergency Voting’ Centers Opened by Dem Recorder Raise Questions

Republicans argue Maricopa merely created illegal extension of early voting

 

Maricopa County Recorder Adrian Fontes's (D.) answers to questions about controversial emergency voting centers opened on the Saturday and Monday before Election Day only inspired more criticism from Republicans, who consider the centers workarounds for voting election deadlines set by law.

 

The debate over Maricopa County's logistical decisions comes as ballots continue to slowly be counted in Arizona's Senate contest.

 

On the Wednesday following Election Day, Republican congresswoman Martha McSally led Democratic Rep. Kyrsten Sinema by over 17,000 votes. However, there were also about 650,000 votes still to be counted, with the majority of those in Maricopa County.

 

As of Monday, Sinema has a lead of about 32,900 votes, and the Arizona Republic estimates 215,000 votes remain to be counted across the state.
