PHOENIX The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday threw out what is likely the last legal challenge remaining about the choice of Arizona voters of Joe Biden for president.
Without comment the justices refused to consider a request by Pinal County resident Staci Burk that she should be allowed to pursue her claims of evidence of election fraud. She wanted access to the ballots to prove that some were invalid.
The justices, however, never actually got to look at those claims. In fact, that wasn t even part of her petition to the high court.
What Burk wanted and what the justices refused to grant her is a hearing over the question of whether she was an elector under Arizona law who had standing to bring such a claim in the first place. It was that lack of standing that allowed state courts, right up through the Arizona Supreme Court, to ignore her claims.
Supreme Court Declines to Hear Arizona Election Fraud-Related Challenge
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday dismissed a challenge filed by an Arizona resident who had sought to prove claims of election fraud during the Nov. 3 election in her state.
The nine justices, without comment, dismissed (pdf) a request by Pinal County resident Staci Burk, who had sought access to ballots to prove that some were invalid or fraudulent.
Earlier this year, the Arizona Supreme Court issued a ruling that agreed with a trial court judge in Pinal County that Burk lacked the right to contest the election. The reason given was that she wasn’t a registered voter at the time she filed her lawsuit, as required in state election contests. Both courts also agreed that she made her legal challenge too late, after the five-day period for filing such an action had passed.

Did the Arizona Supreme Court violate Petitioner’s right to Equal Protection
when it denied remand for an evidentiary hearing of Petitioner’s
constitutional claims of vote denial through the cancellation of her
registration, while registrations of unqualified people remained, and those
votes were counted?
contradicted its 2010 opinion involving the same Petitioner regarding
whether she met the definition of “elector” to bring an election challenge,
even though neither her voter registration status nor the statutory definition
of “elector” had changed?
filed on December 7, 2020, constitute plain error?
