The enforcement of the Arizona Senate's second subpoena of election materials from the state's Maricopa County depends upon achieving a majority vote in the chamber that one Republican senator says is "Unlikely" due to a reported GOP holdout.
State Senate Republicans this week issued a fresh subpoena to the county, demanding a fresh wave of documents related to the 2020 election there as an ongoing forensic audit of results approaches a conclusion.
Key among the requested materials from the second subpoena are routers used by Maricopa County to handle data processing from multiple county departments, including some related to elections.
The audit has been among the most visible and contentious of the Republican-led investigations into the 2020 election since last November.
State-level GOP representatives in the months since the election have spearheaded efforts to examine and assess the U.S. election system due to concerns about security vulnerabilities in the voting process.
Multiple inquiries have led to mounting calls for certain key reforms of state-level election practices.
The Michigan legislature concluded earlier this year that though the state was not wracked by voter fraud in the November election, the practice of mailing unsolicited absentee ballots - a measure undertaken last year by many election officials, including the Michigan Secretary of State - posed "a clear vulnerability for fraud that may be undetected." Audit documents from Georgia exposed what appeared to be, at the very least, significant election data management failures from Fulton County, notorious throughout Georgia for its poor management of elections.
