Maricopa County Calls for End of 2020 Election Audit
The Epoch Times ^ | 5/18/21 | ZACHARY STIEBER

Posted on 05/18/2021 11:38:23 AM PDT by spacejunkie2001

Officials in Arizona’s largest county on Monday urged the state Senate to bring to an end an audit that is reviewing ballots cast and machines used in the 2020 presidential election.

“It is time to end this. For the good of the Senate, for the good of the Country and for the good of the Democratic institutions that define us as Americans,” the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors and two other county officials wrote to Arizona GOP Senate President Karen Fann.

In the 14-page document, the board, which is mainly comprised of Republicans, attempted to counter accusations by auditors that the county handed over nearly 2.1 million ballots without chain-of-custody documentation and with discrepancies in some ballot batches.

Auditors had also said they found an entire database directory from an election machine had been deleted.

The board called the accusations “false, defamatory, and beneath the dignity of the Senate.” Members said they had provided proper chain-of-custody documentation to the state Senate’s liaison, former Republican Secretary of State Ken Bennett. They also said that each box was sealed with tamper-evident tape or “standard clear sturdy packing tape” and that the supposed batch discrepancies stemmed from a misunderstanding of how election tabulation works.

Board members challenged the claim of database deletion, asserting that no data was deleted on April 12.

In the letter, they reiterated that they could not produce passwords to access administrative functions of Dominion Voting Systems machines because Dominion does not give them such passwords. Dominion said last week it would not give auditors the passwords. Dominion did give the passwords to two firms that conducted an audit for the county earlier this year because both are accredited by the U.S. Elections Assistance Commission, the county said.

If it ends, they media will say; Well this has been adjudicated 100 times and we found no fraud. It was looked at in AZ, and they found no fraud.

Just like the court cases that were never heard - it’s been through 100 courts and nothing was found.

Old saw: If you're catching flak, you are over the target.

Obviously, the audit is over the target.

If there is nothing to find, then the Maricopa County officials should welcome this scrutiny, and say "see I told you so" when nothing is found.

Curious that they're fighting so hard to make sure the process never gets completed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That right there is enough to invalidate the election and cause the removal of Dominion machines across the country.

Have the State Troopers arrest them and put them in jail until they decide to follow the law and cooperate. They are dragging their feet hoping people will lose interest. Jail them!

I believe the Maricopa county board is GOP controlled.

Yes we are all offended by any suggestion that anything was improper or not above board.

BTW how do you defame a politically elected representational body.

Every last one of them needs to be hanged with a short rope. Seriously, I can only think of a few crimes that are greater than stealing an election.

Means nothing. There has been enough “stimulus” money floating around since 2009 for all the bribes needed for a coup.

Well if it is determined that there was fraud (of course there was, this is devils advocate) then it truly would undermine our faith in the democratic process wouldn’t it?

“For the good of the Senate, for the good of the Country and for the good of the Democratic institutions that define us as Americans,”

For the good of the Democratic Party

There, fixed it
