BREAKING: HUGE NEWS May Have Given Kamala Harris Arizona...
Arizona Supreme Court rejects attempt to block abortion initiative from November ballot
The Arizona Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected an attempt to block a proposed constitutional amendment that would enshrine the right to an abortion from appearing on the November ballot.
Arizona Right to Life, a group opposed to abortion rights, filed a challenge to the ballot initiative, taking issue with the 200-word petition description used to collect signatures and arguing that the public was misled about how broad the amendment would be.
In its opinion issued Tuesday, the court found that the description of the amendment “is not required to explain the Initiative’s impact on existing abortion laws or regulations.”
“Moreover, a reasonable person would necessarily understand that existing laws that fail the prescribed tests would be invalid rather than continue in effect,” the opinion reads.

Independent presidential candidate Cornel West fails to make Arizona ballot, wants inquiry
Independent presidential candidate Cornel West failed to qualify for Arizona’s Nov. 5 ballot and will run as a write-in candidate instead, his campaign said.
The West campaign initially blamed its decision not to file on legal challenges from Democrats, but later blamed the snag on "significant irregularities" and asked Arizona officials to investigate the matter.
Meanwhile, a pair of West’s presidential electors in Arizona called his candidacy into doubt this week.
West’s campaign was missing key paperwork when an aide brought a dozen boxes of signature petitions to the Secretary of State’s office to get on the ballot on Friday. A day later, West’s campaign failed to produce the necessary documents and missed a Saturday deadline to file for the ballot.
