Election Fraud in Pima County (greater Tucson) Arizona
Andrea Witte* lays out the evidence
Based on facts known from three lawsuits involving the Pima County Democratic
Party and Pima County, the Libertarian Party alleges that Pima County, through the direction and control of County Administrator Charles Huckelberry, has systematically subverted critical controls required to protect the purity of elections. The elimination of those controls has permitted county management to take advantage of the ability to cheat presented by defects in our computerized election system. As a result, county management fraudulently rigged the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) election on May 16, 2006 and has the ability to manipulate the outcome of any Pima County election, including not only bond elections but the elections of members of the Board of Supervisors themselves.
