AZ Audit Reviewing Thousands of Ballots Where Machines Did Not Detect Vote for President, Audit Liaison Says
The Conservative Brief ^ | June 22, 2021 | Martin Walsh

Posted on 06/22/2021 7:21:48 AM PDT by Dr. Franklin

Many have been arguing for months that the election audit in Maricopa County, Arizona, could pave the way for many other states to follow.

Now, we have another big update.

Ken Bennett, Senate liaison to the Maricopa County, Arizona, election audit, revealed there are more than 33,000 ballots from November’s election where voters made no selection for president or at least no votes that were detected by the voting machines.

“There were over 33,000 undervotes,” Bennett told The Western Journal.

“There may be, you know, a certain number of people that didn’t want to vote for [Democrat Joe] Biden or [Republican Donald] Trump or [Libertarian Jo] Jorgensen or anyone else, so they may, in fact, be undervotes,” he added. ... ”You got 3.4 ballots, but the machines only read a little bit less than that and votes. So if you were either the winner or especially the loser in a race that was decided by two out of 800 votes, I think one of the first things you’d want to do is make sure that every one of those one percent of the ballots” was reviewed, he said.

“I mean, this is a race that was decided by three-tenths of one percent. And so you would probably want to make sure that the election department had done a perfect job seeing if all the votes were counted, especially when one percent of the ballots supposedly weren’t counted for any ballot for president by the machines.”

“But when you’ve got a race that was essentially, not essentially, it was literally as far as the percentage, two out of 800 is the same exact percentage as the margin of victory, which was 10,000 to 3.4 million,” it deserves close scrutiny, he argued.

So, the undervote for POTUS is three times the margin of "victory". Just a normal election, right?

And the count doesn’t pass the smell test. Late night spikes in the 4 “battleground” states.

And nationwide Al Gore’s “popular vote” victory was 0.51% (half of one percent) nationally.

And they only achieved that with an election eve release of GWBush’s decades old DWI arrest which measurably impacted voters.

In 1980, a governor of a large state beat the snot out of a failed one-term president. In 2024, a governor of a large state will beat the snot out of a one-term failed president.

I always thought there were some people that would vote only for president because they didn’t know much about politics but everyone knows about presidents. This is saying the opposite happened.

Wonder if it’s a case of fake printed ballots or copied ballots were someone forgot to fill in the bubble on the original?

I guess we'll find out how many of each. I am very wary of using technology in casting ballots and counting ballots. These are two potential points for fraud. The solution is simple and inexpensive. Do it by hand and have it observed by all interested parties. I am fine with technology that allows the streaming and recording of votes being counted. That can't change votes.

We did bubble tests at the end of every year in the late 70s - early 80s and they had some sort of basic machine to tally/score them. We used a #2 pencil to fill them in and us children all figured out how to do it.

No reason for touch screen voting. Fill the damn bubbles by hand and in person. It’s not that hard.

I noted that observational anomaly as well. I wonder if it is an attempt to set up the counter story just as a means of obfuscation.

Trump better hurry up and get elected governor of a large state then :P

I don’t know. Every election has undervotes. 1% might be an unusually small number for all we know from what Bennett said. Remember hanging chads?

If the best the auditors have is the fact there were some undervotes they may as well pack it in now.

It was obviously rigged when the day *before* the election all the big media outfits came out and warned Trump to *not* declare victory just because he was ahead on Election Eve. Now why would they say such a thing unless they knew the vote would involve late night ballot dumping as an “insurance policy”.

There must be hard evidence of fraud in the recount because the MSM is already starting with the “fraudulent recount” narrative and bogus polls.

did he definitely confirm other races were voted in on these ballots? If so I’m not sure how this effects things (affects?)

The article says that 8 thousand something of the presidential race undervotes are in Maricopa Co. Ken Bennett does an admirable job of not leaking specific results, but that leaves many questions: Have the Maricopa undervotes been examined or is doing so one of the remaining tasks? (He’s careful to say that doesn’t know the results for statewide). Have Maricopa undervote ballots been segregated or flagged somehow for continued scrutiny? Are there patterns related to the undervotes — such as machine-filling, identical pattern in the marking, or non-standard alignment markings printed on the ballot forms? Why didn’t the Secretary of State in AZ require examination of all the undervote ballots before certifying a close election in which the margin of victory was a third of the “undervote”? Was that in accord with State law? (If not, the legislature should plug that hole and make checking undervotes mandatory). Is Bennett hinting that auditing should be expanded into counting the undervotes throughout AZ?

My first thought as well.

Also wonder if these are replacement ballots, for those which were likely shredded and destroyed.

Then there was the incident at the Hickman’s farm, which the entire mass media and press ridicule as one possibility —

https://amp-azcentral-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.azcentral.com/amp/4630406001?amp_js_v=a6&amp_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQHKAFQArABIA%3D%3D#aoh=16243761908671&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.azcentral.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Flocal%2Fsouthwest-valley%2F2021%2F03%2F08%2Farson-detectives-investigating-hickmans-family-farms-fire%2F4630406001%2F

Regardless, in the hottest election in American History, what we are finding now smells like a back-door for politicians to control and begin to guide the narrative away from fraud.

If this is the case, it won’t work.

Recall the warning to cities to board up windows in shopping districts in advance of election day (in case Trump was declared the winner on election night).
