A group set up by Byrne gave a total of $3.2 million to a review of the presidential ballots in Maricopa County ordered by Republicans who control the state Senate.
The fundraising appeals are not just limited to the GOP reviews. In Pennsylvania and Arizona, GOP officials and candidates have been asking for donations while promoting the reviews. Trump's political action committee recently sent an email to supporters under the headline"new evidence" with unsubstantiated claims of problems with the 2020 election in Georgia, which Trump lost.
The lawmakers also encouraged the state attorney general to consider investigating those who have been pushing misleading and false information to"raise money or publicity for their own ends." Attorney General Dana Nessel, a Democrat, has done just that. Colbeck has called the legislative report"shoddy" and has called for the panel's GOP senators to be censured. DePerno has accused the committee of an election"cover-up." Neither returned messages left by the AP seeking comment.
"It's going to have to be clear that this information is false and that they knew it was false and that they were spreading this false information to make money," Barron said.
