Arizona State Rep. Mark Finchem (R), who has been endorsed by 45th President Donald Trump in his bid for the Grand Canyon State’s position of secretary of state, is backing Sandy Smith for Congress.

Smith is a 2022 U.S. Congressional Republican candidate in North Carolina’s new 2nd District, who, according to her website, is “the unapologetic America first, pro-life, pro-guns, pro-military, freedom loving, and pro-Trump fighter”.


In a statement on Wednesday, Arizona State Rep. Mark Finchem said of Sandy Smith, “I am excited to endorse Sandy Smith for Congress because she is a winner [and] a fighter.”

“She won her primary last cycle with 77% and overperformed everyone in the general election. She has been fighting for audits in North Carolina and is a true America First Conservative,” Finchem said.

“She has my backing 100%. I encourage all patriots to get behind Sandy Smith ASAP, Let’s take this seat that belongs to the People!” he urged.

Following Finchem’s statement, Sand Smith thanked the Arizona State representative for his endorsement, expressing, “Thank you Rep. Finchem for your leadership on #ElectionIntegrity [and] ballot security. Your endorsement means a lot to me!” Continued Below

Chris Ekstrom has also endorsed Sandy Smith for Congress and said, in part, in a statement on Thursday, “Rumors are the (D) incumbent is fleeing the battlefield like the rest of the Communists; [and] the way is open for Sandy.”

Smith thanked Ekstrom, expressing that she is “honored to have the endorsement of such a staunch conservative fighter”.

Sandy Smith has also received endorsements from the following:

  • North Carolina Sheriff Police Alliance, Tom Homan (Former Director of ICE under President Trump), Jenna Ellis (Former Sr. Legal Advisor & Counsel to President Donald J. Trump), retired United States Army Lieutenant General Michael Flynn and Arizona State Republican Senator Wendy Rogers.
  • Kim Klacik (Republican nominee for Maryland’s 7th congressional district in both the April 2020 special election and the subsequent November 2020 election), Bishop E.W. Jackson, Ryan Fournier (Co-Founder, Students for Trump), and Cdr. Chuck Smith (Ret.).

Meanwhile, Democrat Rep. G.K. Butterfield of North Carolina announced Thursday he would not seek reelection in 2022, all but blaming his decision to retire on a redrawn congressional map that made his district more competitive.

Smith tweeted, “Please don’t delete any files or shred any paperwork in my office”.

Sandy Smith has called for a comprehensive forensic audit of the 2020 election in North Carolina. She outlined the reasons why in an article written in July for the publication Big League Politics, titled: North Carolina Needs an Audit and Here’s Why.

Smith wrote in part: “The Democrat-controlled Board of Elections in North Carolina is trying to keep lawmakers from investigating the election by threatening them with lawsuits and refusing to turn over information needed for an investigation. What are they so afraid of? What are they hiding?”

“In the business world, when there’s this much evidence of fraud, you audit. Sure, you might find nothing. You might find something. But what’s certain is that you’ll be closer to the truth, whether big tech and the media think that’s inconvenient or not. Knowledge is the only way we can fix our election processes and secure the vote so that once again, North Carolina can have confidence in our election results,” the North Carolina congressional candidate said.

Smith outlined the reasons to forensically audit in North Carolina:
  • Governor Cooper Refused To Clean The Voter Rolls
  • The Democrats Enabled Potentially Massive Fraud (a Democrat-appointee judge erroneously blocking Voter ID for the 2020 election, nobody had their ID checked when they went to vote.)
  • North Carolina Voting Machines Are Woefully Insecure
  • The 2020 Election Was Subject to Unprecedented Interference

In August, Sandy Smith held an “Audit the Vote” rally alongside Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers (R).

An Election Integrity Caucus consisting of lawmakers from all 50 states was officially formed this summer. Arizona Senator Wendy Rogers, who is one of the caucus founders, made the special announcement while attending Mike Lindell’s Cyber Symposium with other members of the newly formed caucus, as previously reported by The Freedom Times.

“I am one of the founding members of the Election Integrity Caucus that consists of legislators from all 50 states. Reminds me of the Continental Congress,” Sen. Rogers tweeted. “We will meet regularly and we will talk regularly to implement the securing our elections.”
