Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes' office is reportedly investigating attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in the state.
Sources told The Arizona Republic an investigation focused on two slates of fake electors for then-President Donald Trump. It was also said to be looking into an audit led by Cyber Ninjas CEO Doug Logan.
The so-called audit "was managed, financed and organized by allies of Trump," the paper said. "It so far has cost Arizona taxpayers more than $5 million without delivering any definitive results."
The Attorney General's Office confirmed that an investigation was underway but would not provide specifics. Logan declined to comment to the paper.
The Washington Post first reported on July 13 that prosecutors in Arizona had sought out interviews with fake electors representing Trump.
"Arizona's investigation continues as the Justice Department ramps up its probe of some Republicans in seven states who submitted falsified documents claiming to be the rightful electors where Democrat Joe Biden actually won in the November 2020 election," The Arizona Republic pointed out.
Earlier this week, 16 fake Trump electors were charged in Michigan.
