Former Arizona legislator Austin Smith has been offered a plea deal in a multiple-felony criminal case that alleges he personally forged numerous voter signatures on his own petitions for reelection. Smith was indicted in June by a Maricopa County grand jury on four felony counts for presenting documents he knew were forged to the Arizona Secretary of State's Office, in addition to 10 misdemeanor counts for personally forging the names of electors on his reelection petitions. At the time he was indicted, Smith was strategic director of Turning Point Action, Turning Point USA's advocacy arm.
