In his failed bid to oversee Arizona elections as Arizona’s Secretary of State, Finchem baselessly promoted former President Trump’s Big Lie of election and voter fraud.
- Finchem fervently supported the “Stop the Steal” movement, which falsely claimed that Donald Trump won the 2020 election nationally and in Arizona,
- called for the Arizona legislature to appoint “presidential electors of its own choosing” (fake electors),
- was a chief proponent of the discredited post-election ballot review in Arizona (fake audits), and
- and naturally was enthusiastically endorsed by Trump in his bid to oversee future elections in Arizona.
- Election-denier Finchem characteristically has not yet conceded loss of his bid for Secretary of State of Arizona, premised on a promise to root out non-existent voter and election fraud.
