As a Citizen of Arizona state, I am entitled by Law to choose My Representative in the Congress of the United States, pursuant to Article I, Section 2, Clause 1, in the Constitution for the United States of America, as lawfully amended ("U.S. Constitution"). This practice by the State of Arizona is a blatant deprivation of fundamental Rights, under color of state law, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 242. DEMAND Accordingly, I hereby make this final written demand of you, Governor Fife Symington, to order the Arizona State Attorney General to register Me as a "Qualified Elector" for the upcoming November general election, and to provide me with an official absentee Elector ballot, in the event that I should be out of state on business during general election week. Since I have made numerous attempts to settle this matter administratively, and judicially, beginning in the late Spring of 1996, I hereby demand that you issue said order immediately, in order to obviate major government and individual liabilities for violating 18 U.S.C. 242, and also Article I, Section 2, Clause 1, in the U.S. Constitution, which you have taken a solemn oath to support, I presume. Sincerely yours, /s/ Paul Andrew Mitchell Paul Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S.
