Turn Over Routers or Face Subpoenas, Arizona Lawmakers Tell Maricopa County
Epoch Times ^ | 05/08/2021 | Zachary Steiber

Legislators in Arizona and officials in the state’s largest county clashed anew this week over election audit subpoenas, with county officials refusing to hand over routers and claiming they do not have passwords to access administrative control functions of election machines.

Arizona’s Senate told Maricopa County on Friday that it would issue subpoenas for live testimony from the county’s Board of Supervisors unless it received the materials that are being withheld.

“We’ve been asked to relay that the Senate views the County’s explanations on the router and passwords issues as inadequate and potentially incorrect,” a lawyer for the Senate said in an email to county officials.

The Arizona Senate subpoenaed a slew of election materials, such as ballots, following the 2020 election. Lawmakers also issued subpoenas for election machines, passwords, and other technology.

Maricopa County alleged in a lawsuit that the request for materials was overly broad and threatened voter privacy. A judge, though, ruled that they were “the equivalent of a Court order.” But the county said this week it is not turning over routers or router images, claiming that doing so poses a significant security risk to law enforcement.

The county has also informed the Senate’s audit liaison, former Republican Secretary of State Ken Bennett, that it does not have passwords to access administrative functions on Dominion Voting Systems machines that were used to scan ballots during the election.

“They’ve told us that they don’t have that second password, or that they’ve given us all the passwords they have. They’ve also told us that they now can’t, as they promised a couple weeks ago, provide our subcontractors with the virtual access to the routers and hubs and other things at the Maricopa County tabulation and election center, as was part of the subpoenas,”

Very clear from the foot dragging that the guilty are trying to run out the clock.

Someone is very scared of something.

March their traitorous rear ends off to jail, NOW! How long are the lawmakers going to allow these cretins more time to cover their tracks AND defy the law?

County officials, starting with that woman who practically ran away from a questioner with a microphone the other day asking why she was trying to undermine the audit, need to spend some time in the county jail and cool their heels.

Issue the subpoenas NOW. Don’t play games. Schedule hearings for yesterday and send out State law enforcement officials to serve the subpoenas and haul the hesitant crooks asses into a sitting hearing (within 24 hours if documents are to be produced, or seize their offices and their records). Don’t give the Leftist crooks a chance to destroy anything.

Yeah, but where is all of this? Any evidence that it actually happened?

Since they didn’t comply with the last subpoenas they’re going to issue more subpoenas. And maybe a strongly worded letter!

Haha. There is ZERO chance - ZERO - that Trump won California. While I believe Trump won, that map is fake. That map has been all over the internet about 100 million times - it’s not exactly fresh news, As long as people persist in fantasy, those actually doing the hard work of trying to prove the election was stolen wil not be taken as seriously as they should be.

AZ legislators are acting like they don’t want an honest election. Surely that can’t be. If there was no fraud, what are they afraid of. /s

Delay, delay, delay, obstruct and deny access.

Gee, it’s almost like they’re hiding something.

But that can’t be!

Normally, county and state employees usually have to take an oath as they enter into such a job, and there is some phrase ‘to obey the law’. It seems to me...they can’t obey the law, so I’d dismiss them and lock them entirely out of the building. If it requires forty people to be let go....fine.

Who in AZ compels enforcement by laws of the state legislature? Troopers?

All of this stonewalling is proof positive that the JoeBama regime does not belong in the whitehut. It’s a passive admission of guilt.
Throw them all in jail right now.
Where is the DA’s office?
Hiding in some rat hole?
