DNC Seeks to Counter GOP Lawsuits Over Arizona Election Manual

The Democratic National Committee and allies join legal battle to defend Arizona's election guidelines against Republican challenges.

The Democratic National Committee and Arizona Democratic Party, with support from the Biden campaign, are seeking to intervene in two lawsuits challenging Arizona's election procedure manual.
The lawsuits, filed by GOP and conservative groups, aim to nullify or alter the manual, which guides election officials in conducting and certifying elections.
Republicans argue the manual undermines election integrity by limiting public access to certain records and allowing federal-only voters to vote in presidential elections without proving citizenship.
Democrats argue that the GOP's efforts are an attempt to interfere with Arizona's elections and undermine democracy by making it more difficult for eligible voters to cast their ballots.
The election procedure manual was approved by Arizona's Democratic governor and attorney general, and is designed to ensure free and fair elections in the state.
