Judge rejects Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes' request to block board from handing election administration to county recorder.
Bob Christie Capitol Media Services A judge rejected a request from Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes to block the Cochise County Board of Supervisors from handing over its election administration to the elected county recorder.
"If there is a problem with the recorder’s performance of his election duties, these provisions are safeguards that are in the court’s opinion sufficient to ensure that the board means authority over the conduct of elections in Cochise County,'' Fink said. "If you look at the state's critique of the agreement, it looks more like what a lawyer would put together for a client when they're just kind of looking for things to pick out about something they don't like,'' La Sota told the judge."'I don’t like how this is written', 'I don't like how that's written'.''
He maintained that the judge's decision was not a clear loss for Mayes. The attorney general had argued the agreement was so unclear about the board's ability to oversee elections, including an upcoming one for a new jail tax, that it crossed the line into illegality. Judge Fink, however, said those issues were irrelevant to his decision and that if the case went forward, he would have stricken them from the record.
Stevens, a Republican, said any thought that he might use his new role to affect the operation or outcome of elections is misplaced.
