Last month, the Arizona Senate leadership hired a team of independent auditors to complete a “comprehensive, full forensic audit of the 2020 election in Maricopa County, including a hand recount of all ballots.” The state Democratic Party tried and failed to stop it, and now it is expanding and may go beyond its original deadline.
“The audit will validate every area of the voting process to ensure the integrity of the vote,” Arizona Senate Republicans said in a statement. “The scope of work will include, but is not limited to, scanning all the ballots, a full manual recount, auditing the registration and votes cast, the vote counts, and the electronic voting system.” According to state-certified results, Biden won the county by just over 45,000 votes and barely won the state by a 10,457-vote margin.
According to the Arizona Republic, the audit may go beyond the original 60-day deadline for a report to be issued, partially due to the fact that the venue for the recount, Veterans Memorial Coliseum, is hosting several local high school graduations.
Senate audit liaison and former Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett says that they are doubling the number of counters and expanding to three shifts a day instead of two.
Despite the extra manpower, Bennett wouldn’t estimate how long it will take to complete the recount. “We have as much time as we need to do it right,” he said.
The audit has been the target of a significant amount of criticism from the left and supporters of Joe Biden. MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow predicted “disaster” from the audit, and claimed that Trump will use the audit to cast doubt on the results “in a way that none of their failed lawsuits in the past have been able to do.”

Crickets more time to cook the books.... errors or omissions were long corrected months. Ago. It’s the computer that fixed the election.
.75 per Trump vote
1.25 per Biden vote.
Long fixed in the software and untraceable in the various states using the same software. PROVE IT! YOU CAN’T

If the dems are so cocksure that the vote was legit, they should enthusiastically welcome this audit as their big opportunity to prove it.
This is a hand recount.
“ If the dems are so cocksure that the vote was legit,”
I don’t think they’ve ever asserted that really. They just forged ahead daring people to challenge it i think.
Trump knows they cheated. He likely has proof
Second headline: Will Try Better Next Time (BUILD BACK BETTER).
Third headline: No Voter Fraud Occurred - Get Over it!
Audit team must be finding BIG TIME SHENANIGANS or else they would act to rapidly finish this up!
Why would they choose the Coliseum to do their work with impending graduation ceremonies about to be held there?
Not just a hand recount. It is also a forensic examination of the ballots for paper, proper folds, duplicates, and printing.
They are also doing a forensic audit of the voting machines.
Fix is in! Never trust any GOP from the past! From Liz Cheney all the way back they are scum! If our Arizona representatives had walnuts this audit should’ve taken place long ago! Not cater to anyone. Hey the governor of Michigan can do whatever she wants and has the people under her thumb yet the Republicans are nothing but cowards.I hear that the left has insider people doing trickery with ballads and gathered all sorts of schemes to scare and petrify those doing the audits. Also they have a plane flying over the center to scare those folks or does the plane have some sort of device to jam the machines? I do not pass anything by the rats ability to confuse divert cheats etc. to help Beijing cheating Joe! yet the Republicans coward under their beds. With people like that we are never going to win anything. Thank God Texas had an awesome result from Saturday’s election. Kudos to my awesome state! The rats are evil!
Oops, meant to say ballots not ballads..☺️
Hope this doesn’t turn into another “Durham Investigation”!
Its going to prove what we all know but noting will be done about it.
I’m confident they’ll be able to show more than the amount of ballots Biden won by were fake.
All true, thanks. Combining what you and I have said, correcting the programming of the voting machines is more or less a moot point.
So they won’t find how the computer was rigged.
I’m not sure you understand the difference between a recount and a forensic audit in which each ballot is looked at and signatures verified as well as voting addresses.
If as you say each Trump vote was adjusted to be just 3/4 of a vote and each Biden vote was added as 1.25 of a vote then there would be a discrepancy comparing the actual number of ballots for each.
For instance if the machine totals showed 750 votes tabulated for Trump while the actual hand count of those ballots was 1000, well we have a problem, Houston. Plus they are matching the names and addresses on envelopes to the registration lists and addresses of record.
This NOT a recount.
I agree with your thoughts. I think they must have found something in evidence that is leading them in a new direction. They have no reason to drag it out, taking longer only opens more time for the media to try to criticize the process.
They’d better call in the Marines.
