Arizona Sun Times:
Michelle Martin, a Libertarian candidate running against Representative David Schweikert (R-AZ-01), dropped out of the race after at least four voters said someone illegally signed her petition with their signatures.
Martin’s paperwork revealed that a registered Democrat named Jeremy Garrett, along with four other registered Democrats, was one of the petition signature gatherers. Garrett works as an electoral campaign manager at the Arizona progressive group Our Voice Our Vote (OVOV).
Schweikert told The Arizona Sun Times that this is clearly fraud and needs to be prosecuted. He said it has been referred to the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.
The Arizona Republic spoke with the four voters, who denied signing the petitions. One of them, Stephen Riordan, told the newspaper, “That is definitely not me. Not even close to my signature. That’s very upsetting.”
Shannon Speagle, another resident whose signature was allegedly forged, told the newspaper she asked four other people if their signatures were forged on the petitions, and they said yes. more

Election mischief in Arizona? I’m Shocked.
Can we have the Iraqi government send election observers to bring fair elections to the 3rd world USA? Maybe blue thumbs might help.
What are the chances that every one of those people claiming fraud actually signed the petition and now are claiming they did not? They are democrats.
