Arizona Voting Accountability Activists Not Concerned About 'Rigged' Election

Arizona voting accountability activists are dismissing concerns about the Nov. 8 election being rigged.

Samantha Pstross, with the Arizona Commission For Election Accountability, said she’s more worried about issues that could prevent voters from casting a ballot in the first place.

"We’re worried about the long lines, poll workers who give out misinformation," she said. "But I think once you vote I believe that will be counted."

Pstross added this will be the first presidential election in Arizona where local election plans did not have to undergo federal review under Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act.
