How America’s Fourth-Largest County Is Preparing for Election Interference. Maricopa County in Arizona has been a lightning rod for election deniers since 2020. Officials there say they’re prepared this time around.🇺🇸
That fraught post-election period is also what Fontes and his colleagues are most worried about, given what they went through in 2020. Arizona was the prime target of election deniers linked to the “Stop the Steal” movement, who—along with Trump himself—accused election authorities in the state and its largest county, Maricopa, of voter fraud after Joe Biden’s victory there. Legal cases, misinformation, and even threats of violence followed, but in the end, a Republican-funded review of the Maricopa County election results failed to come up with any additional votes for Trump.
