Top Arizona legislative Republicans weigh in for failed attorney general candidate Abe Hamadeh in court case.
PHOENIX — The top Republicans in the Arizona House and Senate are asking a judge to save failed GOP attorney general candidate Abe Hamadeh from having to pay the legal fees of others he sued in his unsuccessful lawsuit to be declared the winner.In a"friend of the court'' brief, Senate President Warren Petersen of Queen Creek and House Speaker Ben Toma of Peoria say they are not taking sides on the question of whether Hamadeh or his Democratic rival Kris Mayes got more votes.

"In context, the defendants' sanctions demands evince a noxious admixture of political vengeance and — in the case of the Secretary of State — abuse of power,'' Basile wrote. He said both were already threatening to seek legal fees even before there was a trial.
He did not name names. But Republicans who have lost their races have lashed out at Maricopa County supervisors and Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer, contending there were irregularities in the voting process that disenfranchised some individuals.
