BREAKING: Maricopa County Elections Officials DELETED ENTIRE DATABASE from Voting Machines – Including “All Election Information” from Main Database — With Copy of Senate Letter
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 12, 2021 | Patty McMurray

Posted on 05/13/2021 3:14:08 AM PDT by grundle

Last week, the Gateway Pundit reported about the emergency meeting that was called by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, after the County was reportedly unable to provide passwords to the auditors performing an audit of the county’s 2020 Election results. They also did not provide access to the routers which were requested in the audit as well.

This afternoon, it was discovered that “the entire database” for the 2020 General election, showing the “Results Tally and Reporting,” has been deleted!

100 Percent Fed Up reports– President of the Arizona Senate Karen Fann has written a letter to Chairman Sellers, demanding answers.

Here is the letter to Maricopa County Supervisor Chairman Jack Sellers from Arizona Senate President Karen Fann:

Dear Chairman Sellers:

I am writing to seek your assistance and cooperation in the resolution of three (3) serious issues that have arisen in the course of the Senate’s ongoing audit of the returns of the November 3, 2020, general election in Maricopa County.

I. Ongoing Non-Compliance with the Legislative Subpoenas

The first issue concerns Maricopa County’s apparent intent to renege on its previous commitment to comply fully with the legislative subpoenas issued on January 13, 2021, which, as you know, Judge Thomason found were valid and enforceable.

To date, attorneys for Maricopa County have refused to produce virtual images of routers used in connection with the general election, relying on a conclusory and unsupported assertion that providing the routers would somehow “endanger the lives of law enforcement officers, their operations, or the protected health information and personal data of Maricopa County’s citizens.”If true, the fact that Maricopa County stores on its routers substantial quantities of citizens’ and employees’ highly sensitive personal information is an alarming indictment of the County’s lax data security practices, rather than of the legislative subpoenas.

Similarly, the County’s assertion that producing the internet routers for inspection would cost up to $6,000,000 seems at odds with Deputy County Attorney Joseph La Rue’s prior representation to Audit Liaison Ken Bennett that the routers already had been disconnected from the County’s network and were prepared for imminent delivery to the Senate.

Nevertheless, in an effort to resolve the dispute regarding production of the routers, we propose that agents of CyFIR, an experienced digital forensics firm and subcontractor of Cyber Ninjas, review virtual images of the relevant routers in Maricopa County facilities and in the presence of representatives of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office. Such an arrangement would permit Maricopa County to retain custody and monitor the review of router data while ensuring that the Senate may access the information it requires—and to which it is constitutionally entitled—to successfully complete its audit. The Senate has no interest in viewing or taking possession of any information that is unrelated to the administration of the 2020 general election.

Separately, Maricopa County has refused to provide the passwords necessary to access vote tabulation devices. Its attorneys’ insistence that the County does not have custody or control of this information is belied by the County’s conduct of its own audits, which, if they were as comprehensive as they purported to be, almost certainly would have entailed use of the passwords to examine the tabulation devices, and it strains credulity to posit that the County has no contractual right to obtain (i.e., control of) password information from Dominion.

II. Chain of Custody and Ballot Organization Anomalies

As the audit has progressed, the Senate’s contractors have become aware of apparent omissions, inconsistencies, and anomalies relating to Maricopa County’s handling, organization, and storage of ballots.We hope you can assist us in understanding these issues, including specifically the following:

1 The County has not provided any chain-of-custody documentation for the ballots.Does such documentation exist, and if so, will it be produced?

2 The bags in which the ballots were stored are not sealed, although the audit team has found at the bottom of many boxes cut seals of the type that would have sealed a ballot bag. Why were these seals placed at the bottom of the boxes?

3 Batches within a box are frequently separated by only a divider without any indication of the corresponding batch numbers.In some cases, the batch dividers are missing altogether.This lack of organization has significantly complicated and delayed the audit team’s ballot processing efforts.What are the County’s procedures for sorting, organizing, and packaging ballot batches?

4 Most of the ballot boxes were sealed merely with regular tape and not secured by any kind of tamper-evident seal.Is that the County’s customary practice for storing ballots?

5 The audit team has encountered a significant number of instances in which there is a disparity between the actual number of ballots contained in a batch and the total denoted on the pink report slip accompanying the batch.In most of these instances, the total on the pink report slip is greater than the number of ballots in the batch, although there are a few instances in which the total is lower.What are the reasons for these discrepancies?For your reference, please see several illustrative (i.e., not comprehensive) examples in the table below:

For your convenience, images of the corresponding pink report slips are attached in Exhibit A.

III. Deleted Databases

We have recently discovered that the entire “Database” directory from the D drive of the machine “EMSPrimary” has been deleted. This removes election related details that appear to have been covered by the subpoena. In addition, the main database for the Election Management System (EMS) Software, “Results Tally and Reporting,” is not located anywhere on the EMSPrimary machine, even though all of the EMS Clients reference that machine as the location of the database. This suggests that the main database for all election-related data for the November 2020 General Election has been removed. Can you please advise as to why these folders were deleted, and whether there are any backups that may contain the deleted folders?

The image below shows the location of the files known to be deleted. In addition, the main database for “Results Tally and Reporting” is not present.

am hopeful that we can constructively resolve these issues and questions without recourse to additional subpoenas or other compulsory processes.To that end, I invite you and any other officers or employees of Maricopa County (to include officials in the Elections Department) who possess knowledge or information concerning the matters set forth above to a meeting at the Arizona State Capitol on Tuesday, May 18, 2021, at 1:00 p.m. in Hearing Room 109. Chairman Petersen, former Secretary Bennett, and I will attend the meeting, which will be live-streamed to the public.

Please let me know at your earliest convenience whether you accept my invitation and, if so, which Maricopa County personnel will attend.

Thank you for your cooperation on these important issues of public concern.

Respectfully,

Karen Fann, President

Arizona State Senate

When inspectors received the boxes of ballots where the audit was being performed, the tamper-proof tape was cut on the boxes and the number of ballots inside the boxes was not the same as what was reported by the County reporter, and what was turned over to the Senate don’t line up.

A week before the machines were turned over, records were deleted by an administrator—this has to be treated as an act of intentional cover-up!

The Maricopa Arizona Audit team has also tweeted about the breaking bombshell:

Breaking Update: Maricopa County deleted a directory full of election databases from the 2020 election cycle days before the election equipment was delivered to the audit. This is spoliation of evidence!

Why would the database be deleted unless there was something massive they were trying to hide? This article is for everyone who’s been trying to convince Americans that no voter fraud took place in the November election and that it was the safest and most secure election in modern history.

Nothing to see here!

UPDATE — Here is the letter from the Arizona Senate to the Maricopa County Supervisors

You may want to look up the histories of one party states over the last 300 years or so. You'd be surprised.

The start of Tammany Hall, the first corrupt demonRAT organization, was in 1786, three years before the US Constitution was signed.

The demonRATs had been stealing US elections for three years before we had a Constitution.

They never quit stealing elections or appointed political positions, but they have refined the techniques used.

The Tammany Hall boys would use both bribes and open head busting {with the threat of death always there} as the preferred way to "influence the elections".

Every major US city, since LBJ's 'Great Society Quote, "I'll have every nigger voting demonRAT for the next 200 years" ' has changed the way that US cities operate and vote.

There is no longer any real competition for city political offices in almost all large US cities, and it is because LJB destroyed the black family structure with welfare payouts.

It is not an accident that less than one in four black youths have a father living in their home.

LBJ has had more of a long term, devastating effect on black people than hitler had on the Jews.

More blacks were murdered since the great society of LBJ began, than hitler every dreamed of killing.

lbj deserves a special place in hell because his plan of rigging elections was not open and most people don't even see it, after the fact.

Just about anything electronic can be recovered, if you get the right forensic experts.

I’m sure the FBI and NSA will be all over it.

Does any state have the authority to arrest and try someone for treason? Seems that we have a clear case to do so here.

That info was deleted in all swing states right after the election was certified. Or before. Ballots were tampered with and guessing sheriffs may have hailed off Trump ballots. Wonder if the count will come back correct and how many fake ballots they will find. Either way people should be jailed for this. Jail enough and people will squeal. We need to get them to start flipping on each other. It’s obvious they cheated and they are busted. Will anyone do anything at all.

Maricopa County did not delete anything.
They didn’t have the ADMIN password(s) to do anything.

Dominion covered their tracks.
Likely were provided internet access by the County, tho.

No, gather them all in the convention center and read these charges.
Then start at one end and one at a time demands answers...
If they have none, execute that one and move on to the next...
Continue until satisfactory answers are given or the entire snakes next is obliterated...

Just about time for criminal prosecutions of the country election officials.

Take them up in a Huey. Ask one for answers. No response. Toss him out the open doorway. Ask the second one. If he is smart he provides answers or points to the doorway and says he was responsible.

I am told this worked sometime in the past.

That is comparable to partaking in a coup , aka TREASON which calls for the death penalty.
No wonder they want the death penalty abolished, their crimes are worthy of it.

Sheriffs are pretty powerful. Not sure, actually, how that works - how you get a Sheriff fired.

Yep. Immediately. They will start to sing. They got there orders from someone. I would investigate the SOS. And the one in GA also.

Did they accidentally bleach-bit the drive and smash it with hammers?

There is precedent for that.

Don’t matter how they did it. It’s illegal. I wish they could or would do something about it.
