Arizona’s Republican attorney general — who is seeking Donald Trump’s support as he runs for U.S. Senate — has reportedly sat on an investigation into fake Trump electors for over one year.
On Monday, the Arizona Republic reported that the fake supporters have found themselves in potential legal liability after illegally using the official state seal on their phony documents.
The newspaper noted that is “something that can’t happen without express permission from the Arizona secretary of state. The group, which called themselves ‘the Sovereign Citizens of the State of Arizona,’ never sought that permission, Secretary of State Katie Hobbs’ office said.”
Hobbs referred the misuse to Attorney General Mark Brnovich 14 months ago, but “nothing has happened” and Hobbs’ office claims to have never received a response to its referral.
