wrbtrader said---"Prior real audit was a forensic audit...much more than counting ballots." ------There has been no audit yet dude. There has only been recounting of votes. This first audit is to determine if there was significant fraud in the ballots. Just simply recounting ballots does nothing to determine if they were fraudulent or fair ballots. I don't have any idea in Arizona how much, if any, significant fraud occurred. I'll wait to see the results of this first audit.===and you should too.
If there is an honest audit, all ballots should be subject to review as well as some voting machines picked at random. I have an accounting degree and know all about audits. If you are trying to catch a crook or cheater, you do not tell him in advance how you will conduct the audit. The last thing you want is for him to get rid of damning evidence. Again, why are these elections officials fighting very hard to stop the Arizona audit at all costs with lawsuits, obstruction, deflection? That alone tells me there is something they are hiding. Otherwise, be transparent and cooperative and let the auditors do their jobs.
Some people lack common sense. This is not rocket science. There has been a forensic audit...less of a fight put up against it and it was run by Republicans. The next audit (current audit)...more of a circus show by Republicans again...more of a fight put up against it and now more laughs against the GOP than the first audit. Now, guess what will happen when there's another audit after the current circus show audit ??? There will be more of a fight against the next audit in comparison to the current circus show audit. The fight will continue to grow against these repetitive audits because the audits stalls / delays / prevents governing of other important issues to the American society / Arizonians. Also, its embarrassing as the world laughs about how America got to this point. It makes America look very weak and vulnerable. It's now a reason why after this sham show audit...they're going to throw away everything that was touched by the audit team and purchase new equipment to ensure the integrity of the next elections (hint: mid-terms). Send the bill to the audit team. Seriously, people are psychotic and they will become violent after so much vested energy / time into the BIG LIE. They are going to explode when another audit reveals there's no widespread fraud. I wouldn't be surprise if there's at least one mass shooting / domestic terrorist bombing when the audit results are release that states for fact again that there's no widespread fraud. Thus, people will vent their anger in a very negative way. wrbtrader
Don't spew your misinformation and false narratives (the BIG LIE)... You will not be called out for the bullshit. wrbtrader
BREAKING: Georgia Judge Calls For Emergency Audit After Suspicious Discrepancies Found https://trendingpolitics.com/breaki...t-after-suspicious-discrepancies-found-crugg/ On Friday, Henry County, Georgia Chief Judge Brian J. Amero called for the motion to unseal ballots after suspicious discrepancies were found. During a hearing, VoterGA.org lawyers “described large discrepancies (21%) between the number of ballot batches reported by the GA Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger who certified the election, and the number of ballot batches actually provided by court-ordered access in the previous April hearing in the case,” according to CD Media. “A high number of ballots appear to have been counted twice,” said one witness.
Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to GOP state senators and the "cyber-ninjas": So now it's YOUR turn to preserve all your records, because we may file the mother of all defamation suits against you. County tells Arizona Senate to keep files, threatens lawsuit https://apnews.com/article/az-state...020-lawsuits-8fe4ab846bcb1b273857995847129703 Maricopa County officials on Friday directed the Arizona Senate and the auditors it hired to review the county’s 2020 election count to preserve documents for a possible lawsuit. The county made the demand in a letter after the auditors refused to back down from their claim that the county destroyed evidence by deleting an election database. The GOP-controlled Board of Supervisors and Republican Recorder Stephen Richer, one of the top election officials, say the claim is false. County officials earlier this week said they might consider filing a defamation lawsuit if the Senate President Karen Fann and the auditors don’t retract the allegation files were deleted. “Because of the wrongful accusations that the County destroyed evidence, the County or its elected officers may now be subject to, or have, legal claims,” the county’s chief litigation attorney, Tom Liddy, wrote in a letter to Senate President Karen Fann, a Republican from Prescott. Senate Republicans are overseeing an unprecedented partisan audit of the 2020 election in Maricopa County, including a hand recount of 2.1 million ballots and a review of voting machines and other data. Fann claimed the database was deleted, which a twitter account tied to the audit called “spoliation of evidence.” Former President Donald Trump amplified the claim in a statement last weekend. County officials said Monday that no databases or directories were deleted and laid out a detailed explanation for why they believe the auditors couldn’t find them, accusing the auditors of ineptitude. The next day, a data forensics consultant on the audit team said he was able to “recover” the files, and the audit’s Twitter account later repeated the claim that files were deleted. The letter directs Fann and anyone working on the audit to preserve any records related to it, including emails and text messages, computer files, cellphones and other devices. The audit will not change the election result. But Trump and many of his supporters believe it will support their baseless claim that Trump’s loss was marred by fraud.
