"States United Action has released a report showing that election-denying candidates are running for offices in 23 states where, if victorious, they would have a direct role in certifying future elections."
"In total, States United found at least 53 such candidates running for positions this year, including secretaries of state and governorships, that would put them in position to try to block or impede the certification of elections."
"The threat is particularly acute in Arizona, where election deniers are running for governor, secretary of state, and attorney general."
More than 50 candidates who have previously engaged in efforts to nullify election results are running for key offices in 23 states. These candidates, classified as election deniers, include those who falsely claim Trump won the 2020 election, spread conspiracy theories, refuse to certify the election, support litigation to overturn results, or refuse to concede after losing. Their potential victory could allow them to block or impede the certification of future elections, with a significant threat noted in Arizona, where multiple election deniers are competing for high offices.
