Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) released a report Monday night identifying 35 "rogue election officials" who are refusing to certify the November election.The report, available at this link, first addresses the eight states where officials refused to certify the 2020 election, identified in Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.CREW explains that it isn't legal to not certify the election. So, for officials who seize upon the moment to "politically grandstand," it recommends that legal action be taken. Specifically, it cites ex-New Mexico county official Couy Griffin, ex-county officials Jerry Forestieri and Timothy DeHaan in North Carolina and Arizona county officials Ron Gould and Hildy Angiu for their role in attempting to overturn the 2020 election.

It could also lead to mass disenfranchisement of qualified voters.Among the legal specifics, CREW cites the Voting Rights Act, a law that prevents "conspiracy against rights" and "deprivation of rights under color of law." The full list of "rogue" election officials can be found here.
