NextImg:Ex-Arizona AG Mark Brnovich buried investigation findings disproving election fraud: Report

Former Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich reportedly buried findings from his office’s investigation into the 2020 election that showed there was no evidence of widespread fraud or misconduct.

Almost a year after the 2020 election, Brnovich and his staff launched an investigation into Maricopa County’s election administration amid claims it was riddled with fraud that led to former President Donald Trump’s loss. After more than 10,000 hours of work, investigators concluded that virtually all those claims were unfounded — but Brnovich declined to release that information to the public, according to the Washington Post.

Investigators prepared a final report in March 2022 that found all claims of error were unsubstantiated, according to internal documents obtained by the outlet. One month later, Brnovich, who was running for a Senate seat in Arizona at the time, released an “Interim Report” of the investigation that indicated his office discovered “serious vulnerabilities” with the 2020 election.

However, Brnovich apparently failed to include edits from his investigators that disputed claims of election fraud, instead keeping them private.

In the meantime, the then-attorney general continued to promote false claims of voter fraud in Maricopa County despite having evidence from state investigators of the contrary, the outlet reported. Brnovich’s public comments helped fuel mistrust in Arizona’s election process for not just the 2020 election but also the 2022 midterm elections.

Brnovich’s office later compiled a final “Election Review Summary” in September that rejected claims of widespread voter fraud, citing that no group had evidence to back their allegations, according to the internal documents. The former attorney general never released the summary before leaving office last month.

The previously unreported details were revealed in documents that were given to the Washington Post by Democratic Attorney General Kris Mayes, who was elected as Brnovich’s successor in November.

"The people of Arizona had a right to know this information before the 2022 election. Maricopa County election officials had a right to know that they were cleared of wrongdoing. And every American had a right to know that the 2020 election in Arizona, which in part decided the presidency, was conducted accurately and fairly," Mayes told the outlet.

Shortly after the 2020 election, Brnovich affirmed that Trump had lost to President Joe Biden and refused any efforts from the former president to overturn the results. However, the then-attorney general continued to promote claims of possible voter fraud as he considered a Senate run in 2022.

It wasn’t until the final days of the 2022 midterm cycle, several months after Brnovich had lost his Senate primary, that the former attorney general chastised politicians who said Trump won the 2020 election.

The Washington Examiner reached out to Brnovich for comment but has not received a response.
