The news of their first action to NOT certify an election resulted in national media attention….
They got over the Trump conspiracy shit and did their job like the law says theu should….
Commissioners in a New Mexico county have certified the results from their primary election after spurring a standoff over election integrity that was fueled by conspiracy theories about the security of voting equipment.
Otero County commissioners opted 2-1 to certify the results during an emergency meeting as New Mexico counties faced a deadline Friday for certification of the vote. The two who voted to certify said they had no choice under state law and could be only a rubber stamp.

Microcosm of the Re Party.
Three Right Wing kooks ,for no reason whatsoever ,refuse to certify an election until threatened with legal action.
Another example of the extremist mentality that now grips the vast majority of the Republican Party.
Anger and hate with no reason ,nor any purpose.

BUT…..
The system actually works just like against Trump’s efforts……
My Name Is Jack says
The reason it worked here was there was a Democratic AG who threatened to bring legal action against the kooks.Suppose there had been a Republican AG?
Anyway, the “system worked “defense has nothing to do with my post.I was illustrating the continuing slide toward ever more extreme actions by the Republican Party .
It’s past time that you quit offering these weird defenses at the actions of the Republican Party.One day the “system” might not work.
jamesb says
A Republican AG would have had a judge slap them down….
AGAIN?
No matter how the rightwingnut’s try so far?
The ‘system’ restores some sense….
As it has for centuries…..
Even against pimp Trump….
