What to expect if Cochise County Board of Supervisors refuse to certify 2026 election results

Let’s turn the clock back now to 2022. Election denialism was everywhere and the Cochise County Board of Supervisors made national headlines for refusing to certify the results of the election there. They had to be ordered by a judge to do it — and some of them face criminal prosecution as a result of their delay.

Well now, they’re raising the same election concerns they raised then — and asking the federal government to investigate.

The board sent a letter to director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard asking her to investigate the laboratories that test voting machines — and find out if they were properly accredited before recent elections. They also sent an identical letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi a few months earlier.

It’s all raising questions about the upcoming 2026 elections — and if we can expect them to refuse to certify the results again.
