Mayes: Pima County GOP can't cite a single time the rules they want blocked were misused
Arizonas Democratic attorney general and secretary of state are duking it out with Pima County Republicans, who want a U.S. District Court judge to block portions of the states elections rulebook ahead of the July 21 primary.
The Oversight Project, on behalf of the Pima County Republican Party, argued in a May 1 complaint that multiple provisions in the states 2025 Elections Procedures Manual violate the U.S. Constitution. The elections rulebook, which is revised every two years, was written by Democratic Secretary of State Adrian Fontes and approved by Gov. Katie Hobbs and Attorney General Kris Mayes, also Democrats.
In mid-May, the Oversight Project asked the court to issue a preliminary injunction, blocking the state from enforcing the provisions of the EPM portions of which carry the force of law that it claims are unconstitutional.
