Arizona's sham election audit leads to real threats, exposing a cowardly governor
Opinion: Ducey should have long ago condemned the lunatic exercise that's been going on at the state fairgrounds and the Republicans behind it. But that would take guts.

Last week Gov. Doug Ducey ordered Arizona Department of Public Safety protection for Secretary of State Katie Hobbs and her family after she received death threats sparked by the sham audit of election ballots orchestrated by state Senate Republicans.

Hobbs isn’t the first public official to receive such threats.

I'm tired of my state being a laughing stock. . .just like I'm tried of Arizona "education" experts sighing and laughing, saying “Thank God for Mississippi," since we are 49th in education, and 50th in teacher pay.

This sham audit did not expose a cowardly Governor. He was exposed as a coward long before this in my opinion.
