1/3 🚨BUDGET ALERT:🚨Late-night amendment decimates the #SOS election services budget, which is crucial for ensuring we have the infrastructure in place to keep our elections secure and fair.
2/3 This also means the state cannot meet the match required by the Help America Vote Act Grant. Counties will lose out on $750K of #HAVA funds, that should be used to enhance election security measures.
3/3 To top it off, the amount appropriated for the Presidential Preference Election is not even close to the $7M county election officials said they need to ensure the PPE runs smoothly. #AZLeg #AZBudget

Here’s how Republicans hijacked a bill designed to ‘Help America Vote’ — and used it to block people from voting by @Thom_Hartmann gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu… #HAVA #HelpAmericaVoteAct #VoterSuppression #ElectionFraud #RedShift
"While the goal of the Help America Vote Act was noble, it hasn’t worked out as planned. Instead, the most pernicious actors in the GOP have found a way to completely reverse the intent..." - @Thom_Hartmann gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu…
"The consequence is that America is the only developed country in the world where exit polls can no longer reliably predict election outcomes within minutes of the polls closing." — @Thom_Hartmann gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu… #ElectionFraud #RedShift

As more Americans learn the real reasons why #HAVA was enacted, they will learn how much of a scam the legislation was so the GOP could literally change vote totals in elections across the country.

U guys are gonna get caught.
@SpeakerBoehner @newtgingrich @KarlRove @bobney
"HAVA was passed by the U.S. Congress in 2002 to make sweeping reforms to the nation's voting process."
