Audit Forward, a group demanding a so-called “forensic audit” of the 2020 presidential election, submitted a petition to Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s office Tuesday.
This is similar to what pro-Donald Trump supporters have done in Arizona and Wisconsin, two other states the former GOP president lost in 2020.
The petition would require a review of all ballots and vote tallies for all federal, state and local elections, an examination of all state voter registrations and a review of all secretary of state communications, among a number of other requirements. Additionally, the petition aims to create triggers that would mandate “forensic audits” of future elections, such as tampered ballot boxes, destroyed election materials or when at least two poll books in a precinct are out of balance.
The petition states that local communities that do not cooperate with an “audit” are at risk of losing 10% of their state funding and anyone who interferes with the “audit” would be subject to a felony charge of up to one year or a fine of not more than $1,000.
**SNIP**
“Calls persist from those who have been lied to and taken advantage of by partisan state legislators, national figures, and others for unofficial, illegitimate reviews of the election results,” Benson said in a statement. “This small group of grifters and wealthy supporters is pursuing a political strategy that threatens the survival of our democracy, and our nation.”
Benson said the Bureau of Elections will process the petition “in a nonpartisan and unbiased manner, as they would any other submission.”
Voting rights advocacy groups also pushed back against the petition.

TRANSLATION: An HONEST audit will threaten the long tradition of dem vote FRAUD!
I would say this. If you came to find 5,000 dead people were registered/voted (way more than six months dead at election time)...it’d beg for massive reform. If you came to find 5,000 college students who are paying out-of-state tuition yet voted regionally...that would beg for massive reform. If you had 5,000 Michigan folks who live 50-percent of the year in Arizona, and tend to vote in both states...that would beg for massive reform.
Think of the number of audits that were performed after the election in 2000. The results were all the same - close but no cigar. The refusal to audit 2020 election results is the most damning evidence of a fraudulent election.
Bull.
There was an audit in Arizona where PROOF of fraud was found and NOTHING happened.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Because of obstruction by Republicans, same reason there have been no audits in MI, WI, PA, GA.
The Big Steal was completely BIPARTISAN!
Your “democracy” is the Democrat party. If it spells the end of that, then heck yeah.
When someone says “our democracy”, disregard the “democracy” part and focus on the “our” part - because, without meaning to, they are telling you something important.
The Left has 3 arguments against anyone that doesn’t agree with them:
1. You’re racist
2. You’re gonna cause more people to die
3. You’re a threat to democracy.
I detest them.
A detailed, forensic audit threatens to send these crooked election officials to prison where they belong.
They violently protest because they don’t want to go to prison for what they have done.
They don’t want to see the fraudulent election exposed.
In a just world it would be and those who were responsible and those who participated in the fraud would be put to death.
To paraphrase:
“We will look at this petition from the lying, partisan, illegitimate grifters that are threatening our democracy in a totally unbiased way.”
“Forget it, Jake. It’s LeftistTown.”
It’s good for 3 more years.
Benson said the Bureau of Elections will process the petition “in a nonpartisan and unbiased manner, as they would any other submission.”
Paraphrase: "OK, this court finds you guilty. Let's get the trial started".
What about the Jill Stein 2016 delay game Democrats are evil.
I heard a CBS reporter ask her that question. /l
Not taking our word for it and actually checking to see what we claim is backed up by evidence threatens democracy!
Yeah....and I’m sure Bernie Madoff would’ve told you checking his books threatens the financial stability of the market.
BUMP!!!
unfortunately the problem is OURS...We the People -to solve..and they’re gambling we all are so comfortable and locked-down it aiin’t gonna happen...
