of secretary of state or governor here in the state of arizona. chris? bram, you know this state inside and out and i think it s worth reminding people that when they did the recount there was a discrepancy of a couple hundred votes for 261, i m not remembering the number exactly, but in joe biden s favor, no the in donald trump s favor. so looking at what we saw over the weekend, where does that leave things for 2022 and the democrats? the democrats hard to say. i think the focus right now here is on the election laws coming up before our legislature. one thing i want to bring to folks attention that maybe didn t get enough attention, but the election review done by senate republicans has proved to be itself a fake. it has been disproved over and over and very recently, the beginning of january, the maricopa county board, a republican-controlled board that oversees the elections in one of the largest election jurisdictions in the country
came out with a point by point refutation of 75 or so claims made by senate republicans election review. it s a very important document and when it comes to new election laws it will likely weigh heavily on the minds of just a few republicans in the state legislature and those few republicans are all that you would need to block any new election laws. remember, our republican legislature, the house and the senate, each chamber has just a one-vote majority of republicans. so it s not that easy to pass new election laws here and the maricopa county board which oversees the elections says they are ready. once again, a fascinating state to watch. bram, thank you for getting up early for us, vaughn hillyard, appreciate your great reporting as well. coming up, djokovic out. the tennis superstar booted from australia, but could his unvaccinated status keep him from the next major as well?

investors and a bank out of their money. he always maintained his innocence but ultimately convicted on bank fraud and mail fraud charges, ordered to pay about $2 million and sentenced to 70 months in prison. he was released in 2014. recently, he s been peddling a new project. this was the headline in the milwaukee journal sentinel last summer, a wisconsin man is scanning ballots and suing a county clerk as he launches his own election review. the story that follows is as nutty as the headline sounds. to be clear, there is also an investigation launched by wisconsin republicans, into the 2020 election, run by a guy who says the election was stolen, and who has hired trump administration officials as his investigators. that investigation is ongoing to the tune of at least many hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars. but this is not that. this was just a random guy
