I don't know.

Gerrymandering has to end, this is the major reason we have become so divided.

When you are in a district that has been cut up to include mostly your supporters, there is no reason to compromise.
It's my way or else...
I'm opposed to that, period, for both parties.

from the article I poster:
It's unclear how far the bill will go even in a Republican-controlled House and Senate. Although Arizona GOP chair Kelli Ward, who is facing questions about her own reelection to the position, claimed the presidential election was stolen from Trump, other top Republicans have pushed back on such claims.

Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers, a Republican, rebutted President Donald Trump’s meritless attempts to overturn the election results there in a sharply-worded statement in December 2020. He also dismissed the idea of the Legislature appointing its own electors to deliver the state's Electoral College votes to Trump.

"I voted for President Trump and worked hard to reelect him. But I cannot and will not entertain a suggestion that we violate current law to change the outcome of a certified election," he said at the time.

Do they have the votes to pass it? Sounds like the sort of thing that would find it hard to make it into law.
