Rachel Leingang: ‘We will prosecute death threats’: Arizona’s new attorney general fights to protect election workers. As the state’s top prosecutor, Democrat Kris Mayes has the power to investigate voting crimes and bring charges against those who break election laws
"In less than two months on the job, Arizona’s Democratic attorney general, Kris Mayes, reassigned a unit tasked with investigating election fraud to instead focus on protecting voting rights. She then publicly took former attorney general Mark Brnovich, a Republican, to task for hiding documents that showed the 2020 election was free from widespread fraud."
