PHOENIX — The state elections director wants prosecutors to investigate and “take appropriate enforcement actions” against two Cochise County supervisors who refused to certify election results by the deadline as legally required.
Kori Lorick said Peggy Judd complied with the law only after being ordered to do so Thursday by a judge. She also notedTom Crosby, who was in court that day, “continued to defy his statutory responsibility as well as the court order” by not even showing up at the board meeting ordered by Pima County Superior Court Judge Casey McGinley to vote to certify.
And Lorick, in her letter to Attorney General Mark Brnovich and County Attorney Brian McIntyre, even laid out for them the criminal laws she believes the two Republicans violated, at least one of which carries a potential prison sentence.
