Arizona’s most-conservative politicos have figured prominently in noisy and sometimes-menacing efforts to ensure the state’s ballot-counting continues, something election officials say they were doing anyway.

‘We will get f-ing torn apart’: Nancy Pelosi, other Dems take fire on heated caucus call (SF Gate)
