BREAKING: Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes Asks Arizona Supreme Court to Revive Her Case Against Trump’s Allies in the Effort to Subvert the 2020 Election. And There’s Nothing Trump Can Do.
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has formally petitioned the Arizona Supreme Court to reinstate her high-profile case targeting several allies of former President Donald Trump for their alleged roles in the effort to overturn the state’s 2020 election results.
The case, which originally centered on accusations of coordinated attempts to submit false electors and undermine Arizona’s certified vote count, had faced procedural setbacks in lower courts.
Mayes, a Democrat who has made election integrity a top priority of her administration, is now urging the state’s highest court to reverse those rulings and allow the prosecution to proceed.
In her filing, Mayes argued that dismissing the case would “reward deliberate efforts to subvert a lawful election” and warned that failing to hold those involved accountable could “invite future attempts to destabilize democratic processes.”
She emphasized that the public deserves full transparency about the actions taken by individuals seeking to overturn the results in a state narrowly won by President Joe Biden.
The case focuses on key figures connected to Trump’s post-election strategy, including individuals who participated in the widely scrutinized “fake electors” plan in Arizona.
Prosecutors allege that these individuals knowingly attempted to advance fraudulent certifications and pressure state officials to discard the legitimate vote.
Supporters of the defendants have called the investigation politically motivated, claiming that the actions in question were part of legitimate legal disputes over election procedures.
But Mayes maintains that the evidence demonstrates intentional misconduct aimed at disrupting the peaceful transfer of power.
The Arizona Supreme Court is expected to review the request in the coming weeks. If the case is revived, it would mark a significant development in the broader national effort to pursue accountability for attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
For now, Mayes says Arizona must send a clear message: “No one is above the law—not even those with powerful political connections.”
