Louisiana will postpone its presidential primary, which was originally scheduled for April 4, as part of the state government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic.

The state is the first in the nation to postpone a primary since the outbreak of the virus. Louisiana Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin announced the contest will be delayed until June 20.

Meanwhile in Arizona's Maricopa County (former Sheriff Arpaio's home town), the Republicans are again suppressing votes:

"An Arizona judge on Friday blocked a county election official from mailing out ballots to all eligible voters as concerns deepen about whether the coronavirus outbreak will prevent vulnerable populations from participating in the presidential nominating contest. Arizona is one of four states with a primary scheduled for Tuesday.

Maricopa County Recorder Adrian Fontes said the move to provide ballots to people not already on an early-voting list was designed to “both enfranchise the voters and protect public health.”

But the state’s attorney general, Republican Mark Brnovich, said the county official lacked authority to send ballots to voters who had not requested them by a now-passed deadline. In a filing, the attorney general said the move risked “creating a swarm of illegal ballots and immense voter confusion.”

Superior Court judge Connie Contes granted the preliminary injunction, and Fontes said Friday evening he would have to hold back the ballots as a result.

“The ballots were at the door of the warehouse,” he said in an interview. “My job is to help voters vote. Especially in a time of a global pandemic, it’s unfortunate that politics intervened.”

The episode unfolded as Louisiana became the first state to postpone its primary, which had originally been scheduled for April 4. It is now set for June 20.
