who you voted for?
At the beginning of that sham of a voter audit going on in Arizona some genius thought it would be a good idea to send people door to door and ask them who they voted for. The DOJ got wind of this and it was nixed.
But now it seems some people , claiming to be officials of the county recorders office, are going door to door asking that question.
This is all on trump and his big lie aided by his power hungry enablers aka as GOP elected officials.
From AZ Central…
“People impersonating election officials are knocking on doors in Yavapai County, sheriff warns”
“People are knocking on the doors of Yavapai County residents and asking how they voted in the last election, while falsely claiming to represent the county recorder’s office, sheriff's office officials said.
The mysterious door-to-door survey, which has alarmed local officials, comes after the U.S. Department of Justice warned the Arizona Senate against plans to canvass voters' homes as part of an unprecedented review of November's election. Meanwhile, backers of the Senate's audit have organized their own such door-to-door efforts.
Yavapai County Recorder Leslie Hoffman said she did not know if the people knocking on doors around Prescott are working on behalf of a political organization, but raised concerns that information residents provide could result in identity theft.
“I don’t want some of our more vulnerable residents giving information and thinking they’re giving it to the recorder’s office,” she said.”

You never have to tell any one who you have voted for PERIOD!! It is private secret forever!
Tell them to get lost. I might even call the police, particularly if I could identify their car and/or them!

I wouldn't have any problem with it because I never answer my door when it's some random person! lol... I don't care who it is... kids selling something, or nice earnest young people with clipboards, or well-dressed Mormons doing their mission work... I don't answer to anyone. lol. The only exception I'll make is for Girl Scouts. Although I do have a neighborhood source already I'm still a pushover for a cute Scout selling cookies.

I can see how someone might answer the question, though, if they're pretending to be from a county official's office. I think a lot of people don't really know what their rights to privacy are. There's probably people out there who would answer, thinking they really do have a plausible reason to ask- to verify identities, cross-check records, whatever. Honestly, someone coming to my door and asking me? as a *representative* of the county? I'd probably have to think about it a minute before I said get lost, too... or I'd answer as a reflex before I thought about it and said 'hey, wait a minute...' You never have to tell any one who you have voted for PERIOD!! It is private secret forever! There are probably a LOT of people who do not know this. Or figure it's no big deal, so they'd tell them.

I look out the window and if it isn’t someone I know, I don’t bother. I’ve dealt with one too many sales pitches in the past, plus I worry about safety. That being said, if I experienced that I’d tell them to mind their own business and get off my porch!

Isn't AZ in middle of a heat wave? I guess hoping they get heat stroke isn't very nice - oh well.

It’s been years since I answered our door. I can be sitting on the couch looking at them through the glass door (distorted) and not move a muscle Either way, I don’t trust who it could be or what they’d do with that information. Too many crazies even in my neighborhood.

Who answers their door anymore? Other than that, a big nope.
Adding. I decided it might be good to keep a broom by the front door. If anyone asks me impertinent questions, I'll head towards them with the broom to sweep the garbage off the porch.

I know I don't have to to tell anyone, but I usually offer it up when someone asks. Depending on the someone, I'll also give them my two cents on the past administration.

I would be happy to tell them long and loud, and exactly why! They would probably regret asking….

The idea some real or fake official comes to your door to ask who you voted for is a form of intimidation IMO.
It certainly does not change your vote in the past election but it could stop people from voting in future elections.
I’m another one who usually doesn’t answer the door unless I know who it is. But sometimes I do.
I’ve been thinking that if I have my wits about me and I do decide to answer the door I will have my phone with me and depending on what they want I’ll snap their picture. I imagine that might shake them up a bit.

Many jurisdictions have criminal offenses that punish people for impersonating government officials, I am just saying.

I'd be pleaseant and ask for credentials and photograph them, take any brochures/literature they were handing out and then contact the police nonemergency line, the County Registrar of Voters and the California Secretary of State.
I wouldn't ignore them, I'd report them.

Oops! Tapped yes by accident. No, I would not and actually I don’t answer my door unless I’m expecting somebody.

We don’t answer the door if we don’t know the person snd I could see lying to get rid of the person and being fearful they would vandalize the place if you said you voted for who they didn’t like. Just knowing how nuts some people are.

The problem is that in Arizona right now, they could be using positive Biden votes to be able to discount them. To prove THEIR premiss ... Or if no one admits to voting for Biden they will say there are too many supposed recorded votes.
It is just plain wrong!!

If I somehow I answered the door, the amount of f-bombs that would come out of my mouth would scare the shit of of most people. They’d definitely know they’d gone to the wrong house.

i don't answer the door if i am not expecting anyone.
however, apart from that, i would reply "none of your business" and close the door.
same with individuals that knock on my door to ask about my furnace, my faith, etc... (which the reason i don't actually open the door)

But I let her take care of "answering" the door...i.e., she goes into attack dog mode while I stay out of sight. The funny thing is that she's mostly a sweetheart and also a scaredy-dog so if someone really challenged her she'd probably go running. But that's not what it sounds like. hahahaha

I would say "That's none of your business. Now get off my property".
I would also have a big black dog barking her face off, so I doubt they'd need any more suggestions to leave.
