The Arizona Supreme Court has rejected an effort by the state's GOP-led Senate to keep confidential records of its review of the 2020 election in Maricopa County now in possession of the contractors conducting the recount.
The court on Tuesday rejected the appeal filed after two lower courts ruled the documents are public records that must be released, according to the Associated Press.
Previously, the Arizona Court of Appeals ruled the documents sought by watchdog group American Oversight are public and must be turned over.
