The Biden administration on Wednesday expressed concerns about ballot security and voter intimidation as the Arizona state Senate authorizes a private audit of the 2020 election in Maricopa County.
Volunteers recount ballots from the 2020 general election at Veterans Memorial Coliseum on Saturday in Phoenix.
In a letter to Republican state Sen. Karen Fann, the Justice Department raised “two issues of potential noncompliance with federal laws” related to the audit.
“The first issue relates to a number of reports suggesting that the ballots, elections systems, and election materials that are the subject of the Maricopa County audit are no longer under the ultimate control of state and local elections officials, are not being adequately safeguarded by contractors at an insecure facility, and are at risk of being lost, stolen, altered, compromised or destroyed,” Justice Department official Pamela Karlan wrote.
Karlan also said the methods used by the group running the audit, Cyber Ninjas, raise concerns about “potential intimidation of voters.”
A statement of work released by Cyber Ninjas said the firm has been working to “identify voter registrations that did not make sense, and then knock on doors to confirm if valid voters actually lived at the stated address,” according to Karlan.

Yes, Kamala is behind Pamela in putting this audit fire out in AZ and in several other states where the grassroots are putting together the real picture of what happened six months ago.
The natives are getting restless.
AZ State Senator Sonny Borrelli said this morning on Steve Bannon's War Room (Pluto TV and other outlets) the intimidation by DOJ has failed as the AZ Senate is now more energized than ever as they realize they are over the target.
Senator Borrelli also said the weaponized DOJ is assembling left wing media groups to form a judgment in the "Court of Public Opinion" but it doesn't matter because the federal courts have already weighed in on the side of the AZ State Legislature.
DOJ has no jurisdiction.
Must be getting close to the truth.
Can’t have that......../s
I thought SCOTUS said it was a states issue”?
Quick!!!!! We need a riot to distract!!!!
What do you know, they suspect the entire audit team of being present at the Capitol on January 6!!!!!!!

KINDA LATE to be considering ALL that don’t ya think feds?
It is a state issue. Refuse to cooperate without court orders might be legal way to fight Feds. Hope someone looks into that.
I also thought SCOTUS said that but can’t find a link
Can you?
Pam Karlan doesn’t need Harris to push her.
She’s a far left activist from Stanford who makes Bill Ayers look like a moderate.
She has no business being in the US DoJ, and less business trying to intimidate the state senate of Arizona.
And we all know what her “commitment” to election integrity really is based on her complete silence and probable culpability in The Big Steal.
Ok... so let me get this straight....
The federal government CANNOT and WILL NOT Interfere with how states conduct their elections (fraudulent or not)
But they WILL get involved with audits of the process???
Really???
We were told Presidential elections were purely a state responsibility, and that the federal government and federal courts had no say.
DOJ is massively corrupt. They are domestic terrorists & work for the deep state.
Biden AND COMPANY have their mitts in everything.. intimidation and illegally doing anything they can think up..
And the fight back... don’t quit out there in AZ. Eyes are upon you.
The date of the article is May 7, not April 7.
That would be Biden’s Gestapo...
Fox, hen house.
Oh, the hypocrisy and the irony.
Voters who live here were totally intimidated and now appear to be in hiding.
“Biden’s DOJ Is Now Getting Involved with the Arizona Election Audit...”
Bugger off gum shoes.
Quick!!!!! We need a riot to distract!!!!
What do you know, they suspect the entire audit team of being present at the Capitol on January 6!!!!!!!
That was then, this is now.
