Arizona’s largest public school district is refusing to open its schools as polling sites amid threats against workers and a steady stream of misinformation from right-wing activists in the state.
Since President Joe Biden won Arizona by just over 10,000 votes in 2020, the state has become a national center of election denialism. Misinformation pushed by former President Donald Trump and Senate candidate Kari Lake has led to protests outside voting centers, harassment of election workers and a wealth of distrust among voters, the Associated Press reported.
