RawStory reports, Arizona voter threatens ‘violent revolution’ and ‘death penalty’ at Maricopa election hearing:

An Arizona voter warned the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors that they could face the death penalty or a violent revolution due to perceived problems with the 2022 midterm elections.

A woman named Kathy Roscoe told the supervisors that she came to the hearing “to get an up close and personal look at the seven traitors to the United States Constitution.”

“I will not repeat your election crimes,” Rosco said. “I will just say, not certifying the machines constitutes a form of interference and in case no one has enlightened you people, interference in an election in the United States of America, Mr. Gates, is a capital offense; it’s considered treason punishable by the death penalty!”

The woman demanded a “new 2022 state election not run by the people at this desk.”

“The voting booth is supposed to be a time for a peaceful revolution,” she added. “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution necessary.”

  1. The Daily Beast reports, “Out-Of-State Kooks Are Still Demanding a Redo of Arizona Election”, https://www.thedailybeast.com/arizona-certified-its-2022-midterm-election-results-but-out-of-state-kooks-are-still-demanding-a-redo?ref=wrap
    (excerpt)

    When Arizona’s election boards convened on Monday to certify their election results, some of the conspiracy crowd joined the meetings to heckle local officials.

    In Phoenix, conspiracy quacks have been rallying since Friday for an “AZ re-vote.” It’s hardly a grassroots uprising of locals. Monday’s demonstration saw fewer than 100 attendees, AZ Right Wing Watch reported, and many of those demonstrators are from out of state.

    One of the lead organizers, Joe Oltmann, is a Colorado-based podcaster who has repeatedly invoked the hangings of political foes. Oltmann announced the rally in a fundraising email last week and encouraged followers to flock to Arizona, even if it meant ditching their families for Thanksgiving.

    “Everyone recognizes where we are and unitfication is DEFINITELY necessary,” Oltmann posted on Telegram last week. “I will be in AZ tonight. I will not ask anyone to do something I am not willing to do myself. Join me there… thanksgiving does not matter of what we are giving thanks for is the lack of courage of our generation to protect our children. Right?” [sic]

    Other out-of-staters included David Clements, a New Mexico resident who has called for hangings and firing squads for people he claims committed “treason.” Clements previously led a conspiracy-driven “audit” of a New Mexico county’s 2020 election. The audit cost the county nearly $50,000 and returned no evidence of fraud. It resulted in a congressional probe into a company behind the audit, and a complaint from a local woman who claimed a pedophile was knocking on doors and claiming to be with the auditors, who were not conducting background checks.

    Also in attendance in Phoenix were members of a group that travels the country in a QAnon-themed Scooby Doo van, which they’ve inhabited since splintering from a Texas-based QAnon group that believes JFK Jr. is about to return from the grave.

    Their days-long Phoenix rally has thus far failed to secure a do-over vote in Arizona. But when Phoenix’s Maricopa County board of supervisors convened to certify the vote on Monday morning, many of the demonstrators lined up to heckle the usually uneventful meeting.

    During a public comments section of the meeting, some of the out-of-staters took turns at the microphone. Oltmann used some of his time to call himself the “chief election denier” and denigrate transgender people.

    Clements, who was asked to state his address before speaking at the local meeting, sidestepped the question by replying “David Clements, slave. That’s what I am, to this system.”

    Ben Bergquam, a California-based media personality and vaccine opponent who earlier this year made videos while hospitalized with COVID-19, also took the mic, telling supervisors that “if this election is certified, the only parties that will benefit are the cartels.” Kari Lake, Arizona’s failed Republican gubernatorial candidate, shared a video of the comments on Twitter.

  2. This is what fuels the MAGA/QAnon cult insanity: The New York Post reports, “Trump demands election loser Kari Lake ‘be installed’ as Arizona governor”, https://nypost.com/2022/11/28/trump-demands-kari-lake-be-installed-as-arizona-governor/

    Former President Donald Trump again rejected the result of Arizona’s gubernatorial election Monday, calling for Republican Kari Lake to be declared the winner due to a supposed “criminal voting operation.”

    “Massive numbers of ‘BROKEN’ voting machines in Republican Districts on Election Day. Mechanics sent in to ‘FIX’ them made them worse,” Trump, 76, said in a Truth Social post without offering evidence. “Kari had to be taken to a Democrat area, which was working perfectly, to vote. Her opponent ran the Election.”

    Trump added it was “SO OBVIOUS” that Lake, 53, should not have lost to Democrat Katie Hobbs, Arizona’s 52-year-old secretary of state.

    “Kari Lake should be installed Governor of Arizona,” Trump said. “This is almost as bad as the 2020 Presidential Election, which the [House] Unselect Committee refuses to touch because they know it was Fraudulent!”

    Trump’s latest diatribe came in response to a Truth Social post by Lake that claimed that “Arizonans have no Faith & Trust in our Elections.”

    “Our Election Officials are incompetent (…or worse) They have failed us,” Lake said. “The Fake News ignores our Fake Elections and expect us to just ‘move on.’ We won’t.”

    “America will NOT survive if we don’t demand Election Reform NOW,” Lake said in her post.

    Fucking Fascists!
