A federal judge dismissed a request by Arizona GOP Chair Kelli Ward to hold a subpoena that would allow the Jan. 6 committee to see her phone records
A federal judge on Friday cleared the way for the Select House Committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol to subpoena the cell phone records of Kelli Ward, the head of Arizona’s Republican Party.
Humetewa said that Ward did not meet standards for holding off the subpoena. She said, in her ruling, that Ward had not presented a “serious legal question” to be raised on appeal. Although Trump lost Arizona to President Joe Biden, Ward and the other electors gathered anyway on Dec. 14, 2020, and declared themselves the state’s “duly elected and qualified” electors. The documents with that phony assertion were sent to Congress.Eight states in total filed similar papers as part of a scheme meant to sow confusion on the date the Electoral College votes were counted by Vice President Mike Pence.
In court on Tuesday, Laurin Mills, an attorney for Ward from Alexandria, Virginia, said that subpoena was “designed to discourage political discourse.”
