Arizona state Sen. Sonny Borrelli, a retired U.S. Marine, is requesting that the Arizona attorney general investigate the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors’ (BOS) non-compliance with the latest subpoenas for the 2020 election audit.

This could result in 10 percent (roughly $61 million) of the BOS’s shared state revenue being withheld—possibly prompting it to rethink its non-cooperation with the audit.

“What happens when our government diplomacy breaks down?” Sen. Borrelli asks rhetorically, referring to the Board of Supervisors’ continued refusal to provide materials such as routers and voting machines for the audit.

“They call in the Marines! … Diplomacy [has] broken down … And the oath I took at 18 years old in 1977 has not expired,” he answers, referring to the oath made by U.S. Marines to defend and uphold the U.S. Constitution.
