received nearly identical letters from the american conservative union, the group that puts on the cpac conference. they explained the american conservative union's plan to monitor ballot drop boxes and scrutinize those using them to vote. the letters prompted concerns from election officials about privacy and the possibility of voter intimidation. adrian fontes is a former top maricopa county elections official. he's now arizona's secretary of state. he told "the post" in response to that reporting, quote, the whole thing is an absurd sham to cover up direct efforts to intimidate voters. the effort's purpose, he said, is to intimidate voters, and we absolutely will not be cooperating with them. joining us now is arizona secretary of state adrian fontes. thank you so much for being here. nice to meet you in person. >> nice to see you too. >> everybody in the country has eyes on arizona, worrying about the kinds of not just contentious campaign stuff that is a healthy part of our democracy, but worried about voter suppression, worried about certification of the vote, potential intimidati

. >> another piece of video from cpac.mp: we have another great person here, gains, this is a great champion. and she was beating everyone and then she said that is the largest human being i have ever seen. look at this, look at this. >> what happened there? >> in typical trump fashion i had no idea he was going to bring me on stage in front of thousands of people early on in my advocacy journey. i was not comfortable speaking in front of tons of people alongside the former president, so i was shellshocked. he has been steadfast in understanding and fighting for the importance of male and female, the importance of women sports. i was able to grab dinner with him last week and he is in great form which is amazing. the energy for someone of his age is incredible. and so that was quite the experience for me. it was cool. it blows my mind. being able to stand alongside the former president, having millions of followers for merely just saying that there are two sexes. and you cannot change your sex and each sex deserves equal o

did in 2011 when he was thinking about running for president that cycle and he went to go speak to cpac. the concern turbulent political action conference i'm pro-life when he ran in 2016, he understood that overturning roe v. wade was a core conservative priority so he agreed to put a list of judges out before the election, who were conservative. >> i am going to give a list of either five or ten the judges that i will pick to show, you may not trust me on this issue, but here's what i would do if i was president, i will guarantee that those are going to be the first judges that ai put up for nomination. if i win, that tells me that. yes, i can trust you with my vote because on the issues that matter most to me, i can tell that these people are going to hopefully rule as we would want them to the president elect of the united states of america, donald trump conservatives did trust him with their vote in 2016. >> and trump gave them what they wanted today i, am keeping, another promise to the american people by nominating judge neil gorsuch starting with neil gorsuch just weeks after ta
