Petition for a re-vote of the Arizona primary

Another petition on Whitehouse.gov... but this isn't about investigation... this is about restoring the franchise to voters who were wrongly denied on election day in Arizona. People's votes should be counted... especially those who stood hours in the Arizona sun just to exercise their right. Do a revote!
