(PartiallyPolitics.com) – Taking to the social media platform X, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) confirmed that Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, had been served in the 2020 election interference case against him. Mayes in his post had specifically mentioned that the last defendant in the case had been served and proceeded to state that no one was above the law.
Mayes responded to Giuliani’s now-deleted post in which he had argued that if the Arizona authorities were unable to locate him by the morning, then they needed to either dismiss the indictment or concede to the fact that they were incapable of counting votes. Giuliani and other Trump allies and Arizona GOP members have been charged with trying to block the lawful transfer of power following the 2020 election. Prosecutors have argued that they had been part of the efforts to have fake electors claim election fraud in an attempt to convince election officials in the state to overturn the results of the election.
Giuliani is not the first defendant to be charged in this case. Prosecutors have argued that they were unable to find the former mayor in order to hand him the summons or formal notice regarding the criminal case against him.
Online users were quick to point out that Giuliani in his 80th birthday livestream was dressed in the same way as his now-deleted social media post in which he had been taunting Arizona officials. The party had been held in Palm Beach, Fla.
