Republican election denier expelled from Arizona house
"Liz Harris, an election-denying Republican lawmaker in the Arizona house of representatives, was expelled by her colleagues on Wednesday after she invited to a committee hearing a conspiracy theorist who accused elected officials of unproven corruption and bribery.
Republican and Democratic representatives joined together to expel Harris with a 46-13 vote. An expulsion requires a two-thirds vote of the chamber and is rare. The last expulsion from the Arizona legislature was in 2018, though before that, the most recent was in 1991.
Harris invited a woman to present at a joint elections hearing hosted by the Arizona house and senate in late February who shared unvetted allegations that various elected officials had illegally received bribes from drug cartels as part of an elaborate money-laundering and property-deed scheme. Among those accused by Jacqueline Breger, a local insurance agent with no elections expertise, included Governor Katie Hobbs and other state lawmakers such as the house speaker, Ben Toma."
