This seems to be the basis of Raffensperger’s argument:
“The Elections Code is furthermore clear that it is only authorized elections officials who are legally permitted to verify and tabulate ballots in an election.”

Hopefully the judge will see right through this ridiculous claim. The audit is not an election. The election is over. The audit is investigating fraud by “the authorized elections Officials” and others who verified and tabulated ballots on the election. Per Raffensperger’s logic, no Law Enforcement agency, and not even the State legislature, could investigate ballots under any circumstances ever.

Now why pay millions of dollars for voting machines that take longer to provide results than old-fashioned hand counts of votes? What was the point of that? Now, after the election, why can't anyone audit the ballots to see how well these million dollar machines performed? As Mike Lindell says, if someone claimed his product was inferior, he would welcome the opportunity to show its actual quality. No, only the High Priests of Democracy can see the ballots that are kept locked away in the Holy Of Holies. Anyone who is not High Priest who wants to see the ballots is a heretic who must be burned at the stake for witchcraft.
