PHOENIX — The trial of a Cochise County Supervisor charged with election interference has been delayed again.
The new date for the trial of Tom Crosby in Maricopa County Superior Court is May 2.
A grand Jury indicted Crosby for one count each of conspiracy and interference with an election officer — both Class-5 felonies — for his efforts to delay canvass of Cochise County’s 2022 election results, as well as conduct a hand count of all ballots contrary to state law. He pleaded not guilty.
Crosby, who represents the Sierra Vista area of Cochise County, won re-election last November
Peggy Judd, the other supervisor indicted, accepted a plea bargain. She pleaded guilty in October 2024 to Failure or Refusal to Perform Duty by an Election Officer, a Class-3 misdemeanor. She was sentenced to unsupervised probation for not less than 90 days, and pay a fine of no more than $500.
