With few exceptions, Arizonans who want to vote would have to go to the polls, says Rep. Liz Harris, R-Chandler, who is pushing bills to make huge changes to voting in the state.
Howard Fischer PHOENIX — A newly elected state lawmaker who wants to overturn the 2022 election is now trying to get colleagues to outlaw voting by mail.

But Harris said that doesn't make it right. So why would voters — and lawmakers — agree to kill a program that has proven so popular? Harris said it comes down to convincing the majority that there was fraud in the election and that their votes were stolen.
"An election by secret ballot is an election in which voters are provided absolute protection against the possibility of any other person knowing how they voted," Harris wrote in her legislation. And that, she said, includes family members, friends and coworkers. Mohave County Superior Court Judge Lee Jantzen acknowledged that Kolodin presented examples of"bad actors" violating laws dealing with early voting.
