Election Integrity & Censure by LD12 PCs of MCRC Chair
Election integrity is the single most critical issue facing America. Without precinct-level, machine-free, mail-restricted, citizen-only, one-day voting, this great country will continue to suffer.
Regarding the recent Censure by LD12 PCs of the MCRC Chair: It seems to me that any misunderstandings can easily be cleared up. There is some dispute on whether the Chair was referring to the base of republican voters or independents not caring about election integrity. The MCRC Secretary recorded the entire meeting in question. Simply making this recording available would give a much greater understanding of the facts. The RNC providing the actual survey questions asked (as requested in the meeting) would also help with additional clarity. So would releasing the “private agreement” between the GOP and the County (or others) that the Chair has signed.
Instead of addressing the facts of censure, the Chair’s supporters including the Tea Party AZ President (Phoenix Chapter?), have launched a bewildering attack on the Members at Large who had nothing to do with the censure, which was introduced from the floor by an LD12 PC and approved with a super-majority of 90% of their PCs. Now there is discussion of “confronting”, revenge-censuring, and harassing the LD12 Chair for daring to allow Freedom of Speech and the Body holding their elected leaders accountable. That doesn’t sound like an establishment tactic at all, does it?
In addition to the above, the MCRC Chair can quickly put this issue to rest by answering the following two questions:
- Was there outcome-changing levels of fraud in the Arizona 2020 election?
- Did President Trump win Arizona in the 2020 election?
The LD12 PC Who Made the Motion, Lawrence Hudson, has created the following video explaining his position:
Become an Expert in Roberts Rules And Take Power Back from the Establishment
It is no secret that the Establishment uses red tape, rules, confusion, corrupt parliamentarians, and other tactics to silence the voice of the people. By becoming an Expert in Robert’s Rules of Order, you can take back this power and refuse to be silenced. At the bottom is a handy Quick Guide you can use and some additional information here and below:

Video Origins of Roberts Rules of Order and Other Specific Questions
PROXIES
Proxy Votes are NOT counted in a voice vote or rising vote as was modeled at the State Committeeman meeting. This specific question was asked and proxy votes are not counted in this type of vote.
#45:2 One Person, One Vote. It is a fundamental principle of parliamentary law that each person who is a member of a deliberative assembly is entitled to one-and only one- vote on a question.
#45:56 Absentee Voting. It is a fundamental Principle of parliamentary law that the right to vote is limited to the members of an organization who are actually present at the time the vote is taken in a regular or properly called meeting…
45:70 Proxy Voting. A proxy is a power of attorney given by one person to another to vote in his stead; the term also designates the person who holds the power of attorney. Proxy voting is not permitted in ordinary deliberative assemblies unless the laws of the state in which the society is incorporated require it, or the charter or bylaws of the organization provide for it. Ordinarily it should neither be allowed nor required, because proxy voting is incompatible with the essential characteristics of a deliberative assembly…
OBTAINING AND ASSIGNING THE FLOOR
#3:30 Before a member in an assembly can make a motion or speak in debate-the parliamentary name given to any form of discussion of the merits of a motion-he must obtain the floor, that is he must be recognized by the chair as having the exclusive rights to be heard at that time. The chair must recognize any member who seeks the floor while entitled to it.
MOTIONS WHICH ARE IN ORDER WHEN ANOTHER HAS THE FLOOR AND DO NOT REQUIRE A SECOND
t44-t45
- Parliamentary Inquiry 33:3-5
- Point of Order 23
- Request for Information 33:6-10
OUT OF ORDER
#4:17 When a member who has legitimately obtained the floor offers a motion which is not in order, the chair may be able, in certain instances, to suggest an alternative motion which would be in order and would carry out the desired intent to the satisfaction of the maker. If the chair is obliged to rule that the motion is not in order, he says, “The chair rules that the motion is not in order because [briefly stating the reason] He must not say “You are out of order,” nor, “Your motion is out of order.” To state that a member is out of order implies that the member is guilty of a bread of decorum or other misconduct; and even in such a case, the chair does not normally address the member in the second person. If the chair rules that a motion is not in order, his decision is subject to an appeal of the judgement of the assembly.
APPEAL
#24:1 By electing a presiding officer, the assembly delegates to him the authority and duty to make necessary rulings on questions of parliamentary law. But any two members have the right to Appeal from his decision on such a question. By one member making the appeal and another seconding it, the question is taken from the chair and vested in the assembly for final decision.
DECORUM
#61:15 The case may be sufficiently resolved by an apology or a withdrawal of objectionable statements or remarks by the offender;
#61:11 Calling a member to order. “-as when a member repeatedly questions the motives of other members whom he mentions by name…” “-the chair normally should first warn the member; but with or without such a warning, the chair or any other member can “call the member to order.”, #61:12 Naming an offender
REMOVAL FROM THE HALL
#61:13 Although the chair has no authority to impose a penalty or to order the offending member removed from the hall, the assembly has that power.
#61:16 The offending member can be required to leave the hall during the consideration of his penalty, but he must be allowed to present his defense briefly first. A motion to require the member’s departure during consideration of the penalty- which may be assumed by the chair if he things it appropriate- is undebatable, is unamendable, and requires a majority vote.
Find out Which Precinct & LD You are In
Many people ask how to find out which precinct and LD they are in or how to contact a PC near them. The answer is simple:
1. Confirm your Legislative District and Precinct: https://recorder.maricopa.gov/pollingplace/getdistrict.aspx
2. Find your Precinct Committeeman: https://recorder.maricopa.gov/elections/precinctcommitteemen.aspx

New LD Communication Plan
As promised when elected Member at Large, please find below an Optional New LD Communication Plan (Please note this is individually offered and not endorsed by MCRC). This plan keeps costs as low as possible, while still delivering on a thorough and powerful strategy covering everything from web site, logo, social media, fundraising, and more: 1. Register your domain name at Epik.com for $7.99. This is an American, patriotic company. Recommended domain is GOPLD#.ORG (replace # with your LD number such as GOPLD3.ORG). As of 3/14 these were available for all Lds. 2. Website hosting at Ionos.com choose “Business Managed WordPress Hosting” for $0.50 per month $6 per year for the 1st year then $8 a month. This is a great deal and includes a free SSL. This is needed to run WordPress and the backend for your site (WordPress, when properly setup and backed up, also allows for very quick transfer to another web host if that ever becomes necessary) 3. Divi Premium WordPress Theme. Brian will install his Unlimited Lifetime License at $0, normally costing you $89 per year or $249 for a lifetime license. Training on this is self-service but comprehensive: How to use Divi Visual Builder: https://youtu.be/xwRVSOScd00?t=40 Longer Overview of Divi: https://youtu.be/T-Oe01_J62c?t=73 4. Logo (Extremely high resolution, color options, able to print on banners/clothing/etc with full usage license) 5. eMail List Server MailerLite send up to 12,000 emails per month FREE. Brian will assist in setup/configuration of spam/host settings to bypass spam filters and improve email delivery. 6. Social Media: Use Telegram, TruthSocial, and Gab. Stop using other companies that contribute to election fraud, hate you, censor you, and cancel you. 7. Video platform: Free Rumble Account or Odysee Do not use Google/Youtube, they have abandoned their once slogan “Don’t be evil”. 8. Internal emails create Free Protonmail Accounts. Do not use gmail, they have abandoned their once slogan “Don’t be evil”. 9. Use Privacy focused Brave browser AND search. 10. For Fundraising/Donations use the Christian based GiveSendGo, or other low cost options including GiveButter, or Zelle. Do not under any circumstance use Paypal (also owns Venmo) who has recently frozen the assets/account of one Maricopa LD. Do not use GoFundMe which has frozen funds for Kyle Rittenhouse and the Canadian Freedom Convoy. Use this to solicit donations and conduct fundraisers such as low value drawings etc in compliance with AZ Statute. 11. Rather than open text messaging which anyone can access, use Signal for internal communications as it offers some encryption. Total Cost: The goal is to keep costs as low as possible. You pay the domain and hosting fees directly which are under $15 for the first year which gives your LD ownership. An optional $500 donation for Brian’s time and knowledge for required setup is requested from each LD. If the LD has significant funding restrictions, this can be deferred until after fundraising campaigns can be completed. Remember that self-service training videos are available above to update/maintain your site. Additional assistance may require an additional cost based purely on available time. Please Contact Brian with any questions.
Update 3 Locations & Growing – Gas Station Voter Registrations This Weekend
Thank you to the volunteers who have come forward as well as suggested locations! A Deputy Registrar has joined the team but we still need more volunteers and locations. Below are the 3 we are vetting currently:
Potential Locations:
1. Circle K at 7th Avenue & Bell: 625 W Bell Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85023
2. ARCO at McKellips & N. Center Street: 25 W McKellips Rd, Mesa, AZ 85201
3. (across the street from above 2-for-1) Circle K: 11 E McKellips Rd, Mesa, AZ 85201
We are still looking for more volunteers and locations including Scottsdale, Gilbert, and West Valley!
Support On Hand:
- 3 or 4 HUGE “Register to Vote Here” signs
- Small tables (more may be needed if volunteers have one)
- Register to Vote Forms (300)
- Clipboards/pens
- Home-made posters “Tired of High Prices, Register to Vote Here,”
- Millie may need help delivering these to 3 or 4 different groups at gas stations (she is closest to Scottsdale/Phx area).
- Millie has an App which shows the property lines. For example, we got kicked off the sidewalks at the mall in the Costco gas station area during the 2020 election, so we moved closer to the road where it wasn’t private property.
A Few Things To Keep In Mind:
- Volunteers should not expect huge numbers of new people registered. We want to set realistic expectations so you are not disappointed and give up. Just getting a few new voters registered makes a difference and is a success! Registering voters is difficult because there’s not a ton of people not already registered or willing to register if not already registered … and that is why we are having multiple groups doing it at several different locations!
- Every voter we register makes a significant impact because it doesn’t just effect this election … but all the coming elections once someone gets registered!
- We are not JUST trying to get voters registered, we are attracting (with our signs and efforts) the MANY independent/moderate republican voters with our MESSAGING. So even if we do not get many voters registered, we are still making an impact by showing up and displaying “Secure the Border, Register to Vote Here,” “Tired of High Prices, Register to Vote Here.”
- If successful, this will be repeated over multiple weeks.

Show the Arizona Legislature how vital PCs and Grassroots are by helping to Register Voters as Republican outside Gas Stations!
Gas prices are hitting record-highs in Arizona! Gas is headed up to $5/gallon or more. We can turn people frustrated with paying these outrageous gas prices into NEW Republican voters! Your help is urgently needed. Activists are heading out to local gas stations this week to register new Republican voters and switch existing voters to the Republican Party.
There has never been a better time to sign up people as Republicans. Everyone is paying out the nose for Biden and the socialist Democrats’ failed foreign policy and shutdown of American energy production. If everyone reading this registered 5 or more new Republicans at the gas pumps, we would be well on our way to WINNING Arizona’s critically-important elections this November and taking back our country.
Please make suggestions of any addresses and location information of Gas Stations you think would be a good fit for this weekend or next week.

Important Next Steps: Donald Trump Recognizing PCs
Brian Ference New LD3 Candidate For 1st Vice Chair:
Donald Trump just recognized PCs and the fight they are in to Rebuild the Republican Party and save this great country (see below). I tip my hat to Dan Shultz for recruiting and that effort should continue. However, now it is time to Empower PCs, give them walklists and training, help them to become paid poll workers, take the next step and get your signatures to become an Elected PC for more voting rights and more. Most importantly, after redistricting it is critical to rebuild the communications of the new LDs and focus on winning the 2022 Election!
I will soon be releasing a detailed plan to do all of the above and much of it is already on my website https://brianference.com
