(WND) Arizona,which was at the forefront of last year’s effort among state legislatures to require documentation of candidates’ eligibility for the office they seek,is returning to the controversy,with a proposal by Rep. Carl Seel,R-Phoenix,that would require candidates to sign an affidavit affirming they meet the requirements.
The plan was promoted in a news conference yesterday attended by Sheriff Joe Arpaio,whose Cold Case Posse earlier this month detailed how the evidence regarding Barack Obama’s eligibility documentation suggestions both forgery and fraud – and a reason to continue the investigation.
Seel’s proposal calls for a signed affidavit from the candidate along with authorization for any citizen with legitimate concerns about a candidate’s eligibility to be allowed to challenge it.
That’s similar to a Georgia provision that requires “every candidate for federal” office who is certified by the state executive committee of a political party or who files a notice of candidacy “shall meet the constitutional and statutory qualifications for holding the office being sought.”
