Arizona has joined 18 other states in supporting Texas’s lawsuit in SCOTUS against Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia, over election integrity.
As National File previously reported, the crux of the Texas lawsuit is that the swing states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin violated their duties under the US Constitution, by illegally altering legislated election laws, treating voters unequally, and allowing numerous voting irregularities to take place as a result.
Much of the argument rests on the election laws changed regarding mail-in ballots, where executives, such as the Secretarys of State, pulled back the deadlines for the acceptance of these ballots, with some dates even being after November 3rd itself. These changes were enacted unilaterally, without the consent of the legislature.
“Plaintiff State respectfully submits that the foregoing types of electoral irregularities exceed the hanging-chad saga of the 2000 election in their degree of departure from both state and federal law,” the motion before the Supreme Court states.

“Moreover,” the petition continues, “these flaws cumulatively preclude knowing who legitimately won the 2020 election and threaten to cloud all future elections.”
