DOJ Sends Its “Concerns” To Maricopa Recount, Demands Details On Canvasing

Las Vegas Review-Journal

The U.S. Department of Justice expressed concern Wednesday about ballot security and potential voter intimidation arising from the Republican-controlled Arizona Senate’s unprecedented private recount of the 2020 presidential election results in Maricopa County.

In a letter to GOP Senate President Karen Fann, the head of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said the Senate’s farming out of 2.1 million ballots from the state’s most populous county to a contractor may run afoul of federal law requiring ballots to remain in the control of elections officials for 22 months.

And Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Pamela S. Karlan said that the Senate contractor’s plans to directly contact voters could amount to illegal voter intimidation. More

  1. DOJ: Past experience with similar investigative efforts around the country has raised concerns that they can be directed at minority voters.

    There you have it…Arizona recount is racist.

    I think DOJ has a meager argument, but it could stop the recount. Look for the feds to send in troops to stop it. It’s sick, but entirely possible.

  2. Considering who is in the DOJ, it’s the strong arm of the swamp. This is all former AG William Barr’s fault. It’s also Jeff Sessions’ fault.

    Traitors, all of them.

  3. So NOW they are concerned about ballot security. So I presume DOJ will be going after Michigan, Illinois, Georgia, Pennsylvania and 1/2 dozen other states for their lax ballot security in November?

  4. @Dr. Tar:

    DOJ- making up crimes since 2016.

    Oh, they’ve been doing it for a lot longer than that, my friend! Just ask Louie Greco, Henry Tameleo, Peter Limone and Joe Salvati.

    Oops. Forget about asking Louie Greco. He died in prison in 1995 after serving 28 years for a crime he didn’t commit. And the FBI/DOJ knew about that all along.

    But it didn’t stop there. From Howie Carr in the DC article:

    As FBI director in 2002…Robert Mueller directed his agents to oppose the pardons of [the] four wrongfully imprisoned men because exculpatory evidence was merely “fodder for cross-examination”…

    Sure Judy…tough liberal ready to blast way with your “gun”. More likely you’ll scream like a banshee to get them to leave.

    Your breath is probably your deadliest weapon.

  6. So, letting an outside concern like Facebook fund the elections is OK, but having an outside firm work the recount, isn’t?
    BTW, if the USDoJ stays out of the recount, it should remain a State issue, but if they get involved, does it become a Fed issue? And what then, if the recount shows *Biden lost?
