Grand Jury Summons Reps. Biggs and Gosar in AZ Fake Elector Probe

Date: April 6, 2024 Andy Biggs

In a significant development in the investigation into the 2020 fake elector scheme in Arizona, Republican congressmen Reps. Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar have been ordered to testify before a grand jury. The inquiry, led by Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, focuses on the submission of alternate electors in states lost by former President Donald Trump, aiming to overturn the 2020 election results, including those in Arizona.

While Reps. Biggs and Gosar have not been charged, their actions surrounding the certification of Arizona’s Electoral College votes for President Joe Biden on January 6, 2021, are under scrutiny. Both congressmen were prominent in objecting to the certification process, a stance that now places them at the center of the investigation into the broader scheme to challenge the legitimacy of the election results.

This move by Attorney General Mayes signifies a rigorous approach to addressing attempts to undermine the electoral process. The outcomes of the grand jury’s findings could have substantial implications, not only for Biggs and Gosar but for the integrity of electoral proceedings in the United States. As the investigation continues, the focus on these congressmen’s roles emphasizes the ongoing efforts to safeguard the nation’s democratic foundations.
