New reporting shows wife of Supreme Court Justice pushed at least 29 Arizona lawmakers to overturn 2020 election results. Ginni Thomas, the right-wing activist and wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, lobbied far more Arizona state lawmakers than previously known to try to overturn the state’s 2020 election results—a revelation that reignited calls on Friday for Justice Thomas to recuse himself from cases related to the election. The Washington Post, which first reported the news, obtained the emails Thomas sent via Arizona’s public records law. Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, emailed *29* Republican legislators in Arizona urging them to overturn Biden’s victory by appointing fake electors. And yet Clarence Thomas has not recused himself.
