In order to prevent the catostrophe that occurred in the 2020, patriots in Arizona have been watching ballot boxes all across the state of Arizona.
Democrats however, didn’t like the fact the ballot boxes were being watched 24/7, so, they sued Clean Elections USA an organization which promoted election integrity by encouraging people to watch ballot drop boxes.
A US District Court has ruled on the matter and sided with Clean elections USA and ruled it is unconstitutional to prevent monitors of the ballot drop boxes.

The Post Millennial added tehse details:
In Arizona, US District Court Judge Michael Liburdi declined an emergency injunction request from two progressive groups that sought to prevent ballot drop box monitoring for the midterm elections.
According to AZCentral, Judge Liburdi said it was unconstitutional to prevent monitors from overseeing the delivery of ballots via drop boxes in Arizona.
The injunction request was filed jointly by the progressive groups Arizona Alliance for Retired Americans and Voto Latino against Clean Elections USA, a conservative group that organized to observe ballot drop boxes in Phoenix.
The progressive groups claimed that the founder of Clean Elections USA, Melody Jennings, was responsible for a “campaign of vigilante voter intimidation.”
Jennings’ lawyer, Veronica Lucero, said an injunction would be too broad and therefore was a violation of her client’s rights.
A Trump judge ruled on the case:

Red State added tehse details:
As RedState previously reported, on Monday, a federal lawsuit was filed in Arizona to prevent Clean Elections USA group members from watching ballot boxes. U.S. District Court Judge Michael Liburdi ruled on Friday, refusing to grant the plaintiff’s request for an injunction to bar observers from watching the ballot boxes, citing constitutional violations.
Liburdi held that the First Amendment rights of individuals to speak and gather do not extend to “true threats.” The judge said that no evidence was provided to prove that Melody Jennings, founder of Clean Elections USA, or its members had done anything to reach a level considered to be threatening, or otherwise illegal.
