    Arizona GOP lawmakers now joining critics to push back against the 'botched' election audit
    https://www.alternet.org/2021/07/arizona-audit-gop/

    Arizona Republicans' botched partisan audit of the 2020 presidential election may have come to an end but that hasn't quelled voting rights advocates' concerns about the fragile state of democracy. According to Local 10, the highly publicized audit appears to have fallen apart toward its end.

    From independent contractors jumping ship to Republican lawmakers withdrawing support for the effort, the audit has not improved much. The outcome of the so-called "forensic audit" has only added to the apprehension about the integrity of the effort as no substantial evidence of voter fraud has been discovered.

    According to critics and election audit experts, the effort is the epitome of "deeply flawed."

    "Not even a shred of being salvaged at this point," said Sen. Paul Boyer (R-Ariz.) when he publically condemned the audit back in May. "They've botched it at so many points along the way that it's irrecoverable."


    Although Boyer was one of the first lone Arizona state lawmakers to publically express disdain about the audit and its handling, he is no longer the only one. Last week, Sen. Michelle Ugenti-Rita (R-Ariz.) also sounded off via Twitter.

    "I wanted to review our election processes and see what, if anything, could be improved," Ugenti-Rita wrote on Twitter. "Sadly, it's now become clear that the audit has been botched."

    However, Sen. Warren Petersen, chair of the Judiciary Committee which issued subpoenas for the audit, argues that Republican lawmakers in Maricopa County, Ariz., are stonewalling the effort despite being members of the political party.

    The publication reports that Maricopa County officials, who are mostly Republicans, believe "'competent auditors' have everything they would need to fully review the vote count."

    "It is unfortunate that the county has been recalcitrant," Petersen said. "That doesn't breed trust. It slows things down. It makes things difficult."

    Despite the partisan effort to make the audit appear legitimate, Ralph Neas, a civil rights attorney and advocate who reported on the flawed audit for The Century Foundation, believes it serves a different purpose.

    "The audit process and its eventual results may be utilized to undermine popular confidence in our electoral system nationwide, thereby enabling the disenfranchisement of millions of Americans," said Neas. "These are existential threats to our democracy and they have to be stopped in their tracks."

    Let's read the article.... oh it's a right-wing Trumper judge who attends election fraud rallies and runs with a crowd that spouts Q conspiracy stuff. No wonder they took this guy off the bench.


    Ex-Wisconsin Supreme Court justice overseeing election review says integrity concerns warrant 'very thorough examination'
    https://www.yahoo.com/news/ex-wisconsin-supreme-court-justice-204025598.html

    MILWAUKEE - The retired Wisconsin Supreme Court justice tasked with leading a review of the 2020 presidential election said there are enough concerns about the integrity of the election to warrant a "very thorough examination."

    Michael Gableman, who was hired by Assembly Speaker Robin Vos as a special counsel in charge of the investigation, made the comments in an interview that aired Sunday on WISN-TV's "UPFRONT."
    It is one of the first times Gableman has spoken publicly about the review.

    Gableman last November attended a pro-Trump rally at Serb Hall in Milwaukee and said a stolen election would be "systematically unjust."

    Oh... you mean how CyberNinjas failed to follow any documented auditing standards, implemented no chain of custody, undermined the voting machines so they can no longer be used, likely ruined many ballots, and failed completely when it comes to ownership. Yeah... we get it. It is a "fraudit".
