On Thursday, Oct. 15, 2026, the office of Justin Heap asked the Federal Bureau of Investigation to examine unfounded election allegations directed at the Maricopa County Board.
An FBI investigator reviewed a social‑media video that had garnered roughly one million views and concluded that there was no evidence of wrongdoing, dismissing the claim.
The request reflects ongoing efforts by Maricopa County officials to address false election accusations, prompting a local office to involve federal investigators.
