Was totally fine, showed no symptoms before & no pre-exisiting conditions according to his family. Got sick Monday, went to the hospital, fell into a coma Tuesday & died last night. He was 23.

For years, Kyrsten Sinema has shown that despite the best interests of her constituents, her own interests are the only thing that matters to her. I'll remember this betrayal of our values as will my fellow AZ Dems. I hope a strong Democrat considers running against her in 2024.

Looks like elections were very well run across the state with no issues. Pima County had a hand count audit that matched 100%, just like Maricopa and every other County. Thanks to Sec. Of State

for her leadership and transparency. Congratulations Secretary Hobbs!

This Saturday chairs of the Dem, GOP, and Libertarian parties selected batches of ballots for the legally-required hand count audit in Pima County. Members of all three parties counted the ballots by hand to compare with the machine counts. They matched 100%."

sent out a fundraising tweet telling everyone he will follow the law. Well, we know that's not true so we fixed his graphic for him to be more accurate.
Devastated.
We lost our side of the building at the Maricopa County Democratic Party. The fire completely destroyed everything.
Heartbreaking.
@MaricopaDems
Anyone thinks the Dem Party stole the election in a highly coordinated and sophisticated "steal" has very clearly never been to one of the Democratic Party meetings.
Looks like my neighbors down the street are ready for this election. No need to persuade them to vote for

. Maricopa County is Biden country! Vote early!
If you are praising the 2020 election in Maricopa County for being well run, secure & transparent, but are not giving credit to
@Adrian_Fontes
and his team, you are doing it wrong. We must elect Adrian as our next Secretary of State.

Before this circus begins and they debate Arizona's election, just a reminder that on THREE separate occasions (Oct 6th, Nov 4th and 18th) we conducted an audit of the election machines in Maricopa County. Each time they were accurate and matched 100%.

Ok, I’ve had it. I remained silent about Kyrsten Sinema for 10 years, but it’s time to break the silence.
I always had a distaste for candidates who criticize their opponents after they lose an election. It comes off as sour grapes even if it’s well-founded. But…(1/10)

. Doctor says our young son almost for sure has it as well. He is showing minimal symptoms thankfully.
Our family appreciates the well wishes and thoughts. We will beat this together. Thank you.
Governor Ducey is afraid to take common sense steps to address health concerns in AZ so he doesn’t anger Trump.
Luckily we have great mayors in Phoenix, Tucson, Flagstaff, Tempe & Avondale taking the lead in his absence and protecting their communities and our healthcare workers
Joe Biden is going to win Arizona.
However, there are *many* local candidates with razor thin differences right now. We will fight for every vote to be counted and ensure transparency and complete accuracy in this process. This is not over.
@MaricopaDems
This is just insane. A state political party is encouraging violence. I have enjoyed laughing at the
@AZGOP
meltdown over losing this election as much as anyone but this is dangerous.
Looks like Kari Lake wants to "lock me up" because I certified the ballot counting machines for Maricopa County in 2020. Strange though, we did the exact same process in 2016 and 2018 with the same machines and no complaints.

@DebbieLesko
supported this domestic terrorist act with her conspiracy theories and now pretends like she is the reasonable voice in the room.
Traitor.
Just to be absolutely clear once again, the hand count audit matched 100%. Everything matched before the election during the test and immediately after. 100% accuracy.
Stephen Richer—MaricopaCountyRecorder (prsnl acct)
An expanded hand audit has very limited downside and, even if simply affirms existing results (as it presumably should), it has the very real benefit of increasing confidence in the voting process, which is important for keeping citizens engaged.
The Native American vote is crucial to Maricopa and Arizona. I'm proud of my friend

for the work she is doing in this community. Thank you for your leadership!

Maricopa County vaccinated 3,475 people on 12/31. For a grand total of only 47,243 in 2 weeks.
We have 4.85 million people in our county alone. This is an unacceptable pace.
Maricopa County is now 3rd for largest number of cases behind LA and Chicago
More people have voted in Maricopa County for the 2020 election than all of 2016. We have 4 days left. Incredible.
The most important battleground county in the country is fired up for this election. Let's go!

John Brakey, an official helping oversee the audit of the 2020 Arizona election, says auditors are looking for bamboo fibers because of a baseless accusation that 40K ballots from Asia were smuggled here.

has been here multiple times and in constant contact and we haven't heard from his opponent once this entire time."
The person who threw the bomb into our office destroyed our building, but he did not damage our spirit. We will never back down and we will never give in to this violence. The person responsible tried to stop us, but he has failed. Join us at 1pm today.

I'm so glad we all worked our butts off last year for a majority, only to see our national leadership cave in and basically surrender. So tired of this same old story. We must do better and demand better. We have the majority, people voted for us to lead, use this power!
