This episode contains strong language.
Hundreds of candidates on the ballot in November still deny that President Biden won in 2020 — a level of denialism that is fueling harassment and threats toward election workers.
Few have experienced those attacks as viscerally as election workers in Arizona. Today, we speak with the top election official in the state’s largest county.
Guest: Stephen Richer, the recorder of Maricopa County in Arizona.
Background reading:
Election officials are on alert as voting begins for midterm elections, the biggest test of the American election system (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/17/us/politics/midterm-elections-challenges.html?smid=pc-thedaily) since former President Donald J. Trump’s lies about the 2020 results launched an assault on the democratic process.
Over 370 Republican candidates (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/10/13/us/politics/republican-candidates-2020-election-misinformation.html?smid=pc-thedaily) have cast doubt on the 2020 election despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, according to a New York Times investigation.
