Maricopa County in Arizona announced on Monday that some early in-person voting locations have been temporarily closed due to “power related issues.”
The Maricopa County Elections Department announced on X, “Due to power related issues, the Vote Centers located at Paradise Community College and Sunset Canyon School are temporarily closed. Please visit https://Locations.Maricopa.Vote to find a nearby voting location.”
However, one Maricopa County resident who spoke to The Gateway Pundit said he went to Paradise Community College, Sunset Canyon School, and a third polling location near Cactus Rd. and Tatum Blvd. in North Phoenix, and they were all closed. “We’re getting f*cked with again,” they said.
Turning Point USA spokesman Andrew Kolvet encouraged voters not to be “deterred” and shared a link with additional voting locations.
Back in 2022, on Election Day, voting centers across Maricopa County, the largest in the state, faced vote tabulator failures at roughly 60% of voting locations, leaving the majority-Republican in-person voters stuck waiting in hours-long lines or unable to vote.
Republican Kari Lake was running against Democrat Katie Hobbs for governor in that race and lost by less than 1% after the catastrophic failures disenfranchised tens of thousands of voters.
Lake told The Gateway Pundit, “Maricopa County is up to its old tricks again. Vote centers are closing over supposed power issues, a fire alarm got pulled at a site in heavily Republican Mesa, voters are being told during ballot curing that ballots were cast they didn’t know about, and we’re still dealing with the same late-night activity at the tabulation center.”
“Arizonans are done with the Board of Supervisors’ ‘nothing to see here’ routine while trust keeps eroding. We the people deserve clean, transparent elections. It’s past time for the DOJ and FBI to step in and investigate,” she added.
Hobbs is up for reelection this cycle against Trump-Endorsed Republican Andy Biggs.
The county came under scrutiny again last month after a so-called error with thousands of mail-in ballots this election cycle and after employees were caught potentially tampering with election equipment in the dead of night.
President Trump responded to Maricopa County’s mail-in ballot “error” recently, telling The Gateway Pundit, “They got caught! And now they’re saying it was an error. Maricopa is a very, very dishonest county.”
