The Trump campaign has announced public hearings into alleged voter irregularities in Arizona. 

In Arizona, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the Nov. 3 election by a margin of 10,457 votes. 

The campaign announced a hearing would be held Nov. 30 in Arizona by the state legislature.

“It’s in everyone’s interest to have a full vetting of election irregularities and fraud,” Rudy Giuliani, an attorney for Trump, said in a campaign-issued news release. “And the only way to do this is with public hearings, complete with witnesses, videos, pictures and other evidence of illegalities from the November 3rd election.”

Jenna Ellis, the Trump campaign’s senior legal advisor and a personal attorney for Trump, said in the news release that it was important to count all legal votes in the three states.

“We are pleased that the State Legislatures in Pennsylvania, Arizona and Michigan will be convening hearings to examine the November 3rd presidential election,” Ellis said in the news release. “There were serious irregularities, we have proof of fraud in a number of states, and it is important for all Americans to have faith in our electoral process. All we have wanted from the outset is to count every legal vote and discount every illegal vote.” 

The Arizona Republican Party filed a lawsuit earlier this month seeking a recount at the precinct level. The party said in a news release that hand counting would give a more precise sampling of votes. 

One state representative, Rep. Bret Roberts (R-Maricopa) said last week that House Speaker Rusty Bowers was attempting to stop efforts to protect election integrity. He alleged that Bowers was trying to stop a letter he wrote that ensured election officials were following the rules. 

“We are going to count all of the votes in Arizona,” Ducey said in a press conference. “We are going to allow whatever legal challenges that come to be swiftly adjudicated inside the state of Arizona. And I will respect the election results.” 

Gov. Doug Ducey has also said to let the legal challenges play out. 

“We are going to count all of the votes in Arizona,” Ducey said in a press conference. “We are going to allow whatever legal challenges that come to be swiftly adjudicated inside the state of Arizona. And I will respect the election results.”  

There have also been issues with Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, who once called Trump supporters neo-nazis. 

The issues with Hobbs’ post is that she is in charge of certifying the elections.
