Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes’s lawfare case against alternative 2020 Trump electors in Arizona was pre-designed by a leftwing law group and handed to her by a leftwing group nearly one year before the charges were filed.
In April, Mayes indicted 18 individuals, including Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, RNC attorney Christina Bobb, conservative attorney John Eastman, and Trump campaign adviser Boris Epshteyn, for challenging the stolen 2020 election and casting an alternative slate of electors for President Trump.
The charges include nine counts of conspiracy, fraudulent schemes and artifices, fraudulent schemes and practices, and forgery. “Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizona’s voters,” Mayes’s indictment alleges. President Trump was named “Unindicted Coconspirator 1.”
The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that the far-left judge overseeing the case recused himself after he was busted bashing white men and making demands that other judges in Arizona support Kamala Harris against her conservative critics. The judge further likened Harris’ critics to Nazis and condemned judges for not sharing his radical anti-white views.

Now we know that States United Democracy Center sent a memo outlining the case to Mayes on July 25 2023, nearly one year before Mayes and her grand jury indicted the Trump associates and conservative activists. This was also months after Mayes stole the 2022 election for AG and took office, replacing her predecessor, Republican Mark Brnovich.
Roughly one week before sending the memo, the group boasted on X that Mayes was “ramping up a criminal investigation into attempts to overturn the state’s presidential election results in 2020” while omitting that they were actually the architects of the case.

The same organization has reported ties to RINO Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer. Richer colluded with the organization to censor what he called “election threats and disinformation” prior to the rigged 2022 election and his defamation lawsuit against Kari Lake for criticizing him over his involvement in elections.
The Federalist reports,
Maricopa County Recorder Steven Richer turned to the left-leaning States United Democracy Center and an overseas group bankrolled by the State Department to help his office target election speech that’s disapproved of by the government, according to emails obtained by The Federalist.
Richer thanked States United for offering to let his office “piggy back” on the group’s anti-speech operations, which he described as “deep scanning” the internet for “disinformation,” a term often invoked to censor speech the government disagrees with. States United is a left-wing election law group that consistently opposes Republican election integrity legislation like voter ID laws and supports Democrat attempts to diminish election security, according to InfluenceWatch. The group has praised the weaponization of the justice system against Trump, and was described by The New York Times as part of a “coalition” preparing to “push back” against a potential Trump victory with “extraordinary pre-emptive actions.”
The group is led and founded in part by former Obama White House ethics counsel Norm Eisen. As The Gateway Pundit reported in May, Eisen was also CC’d on “confidential” communications about the Elector Certification Process between Democrat Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, her then-deputy chief Christina Grossi, two top Trump impeachment lawyers, and Senior Counsel for Massachusetts AG Samantha Shusterman. Eisen is behind all of the lawfare against President Trump.
Per The Daily Signal:
The memo outlined the potential criminal case against Trump associates and made repeated references to “Trump himself” as part of what it called a criminal “false electors scheme.”
Mayes recently said that her prosecution of former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, and former Arizona Republican Party Chair Kelli Ward—all among 18 Trump associates indicated—would continue despite Trump’s election to a second term.
Other co-founders of the center are former Massachusetts Chief Deputy Attorney General Joanna Lydgate, now CEO of the group, and former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman, a Republican who was administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency during President George W. Bush’s first term. Whitman is now on the group’s bipartisan advisory board.
Its advisory board includes Republicans such as Whitman; former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld, who challenged Trump for the 2020 GOP presidential nomination; two former George W. Bush administration homeland security secretaries, Michael Chertoff and Tom Ridge (also a former Pennsylvania governor); former U.S. Rep. Tom Coleman, R-Mo; and former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele.
The memo builds the entire case for Mayes, outlining “potential criminal charges” and “potential defenses.” Mayes indicted the defendants on three out of six charges recommended by the nonprofit group. The memo notes that the alternate electors “will almost certainly point to the 1960 Presidential Election results in Hawaii,” where John F. Kennedy’s elector nominees successfully signed their own certificates and sent them to Washington, as one of the potential defenses.
The memo further outlines the statute of limitations, signaling a deadline for Mayes to arrange the indictments. “Statutes of limitations will not provide a barrier to prosecution, so long as the prosecution is brought within the next four years,” the memo reads.
