Former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) said on Sunday that it's up to prosecutors to decide if former President Donald Trump's alleged November 2020 call to former Gov. Doug Ducey (R-AZ) to persuade him not to certify the results of the election was criminal.
Three people familiar with the call told the Washington Post under the condition of anonymity that Trump called Ducey in the middle of the signing ceremony certifying the results of the election on Nov. 30. Although Ducey did not answer the call, the caller was identifiable by the"Hail to the Chief" ringtone. Ducey later confirmed he spoke to Trump after the ceremony.“We’ll let the prosecutors decide whether it’s criminal or not,” Christie said Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union.
Smith indicted Trump in the classified documents matter last month, saying at the time that the charges were related to"felony violations of our national security laws as well as participating in a conspiracy to obstruct justice.” His office has not yet said whether they plan to charge the former president regarding his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, and it is not clear if they are looking into the reported phone calls to the Arizona governor.
After certifying his state's election results, Ducey tweeted a nine-post thread on Nov. 30 defending the integrity of Arizona election law and stressing disenfranchisement did not occur.
