An Arizona judge has sanctioned former Republican secretary of state candidate Mark Finchem and his attorney over a lawsuit challenging his loss in last year's election, saying the suit "was groundless and not brought in good faith."
Finchem's suit raised unsupported claims that his loss was marred by misconduct and demanded the results be set aside and the election redone. He's refused to concede to Democrat Adrian Fontes, who took office in January.
