Why Efforts For An Election Recount Are Turning The Spotlight On Arizona

The audit that Republican state senators are pushing for has generated a lot of attention outside Arizona.

Gov. Doug Ducey refused to weigh in March 22 on whether he thinks the Senate audit will convince those who still believe the election was stolen that it was not.

In fact, some well-known people in far-right politics are joining the cause.

Will Sommer, a politics reporter for the Daily Beast has written about this. The Show spoke with him for more on why so many people nationally are focused on Arizona and Maricopa County, specifically.
