state official in Arizona on Thursday said the State Senate's audit of Maricopa County's 2020 election results revealed "potentially thousands" of missing serial numbers on ballot copies that had been duplicated from damaged originals.
In the State Senate hearing on Thursday, Senate Liaison Ken Bennett described the process by which election workers duplicate a ballot. “If a ballot gets damaged and has to be sent to duplication, there is a very specific process in the [state] elections procedure manual,” he said; that process involves applying matching serial numbers to both original and duplicated ballots.
“We found, I would have to say, thousands of duplicate ballots where those serial numbers are not on them,” he said. “And so it has created great difficulty to try to match up a duplicated ballot to its duplicate.”
Bennett said many serial numbers were applied with a “dot-matrix printer” atop border lines around the ballot, a mixup which “made for some very difficult matching of duplicated ballots and their duplicates.”
“One of the most important things you need to do when you duplicate ballots is reflect the serial number on [the two ballots] so that you can do two main things. One, make sure you have one for every one of the other; and two, make sure that you can look at the votes reflected on the duplicated ballot to make sure they reflected those correctly from the ballot that was damaged and was duplicated.”
During his testimony, State Senate President Karen Fann asked Bennet: “If the corresponding numbers aren’t on there, how would you know whether it was duplicated once or ten times?” To which Bennett responded: “You wouldn’t.”
The ongoing Maricopa audit is expected to continue for a few more weeks.
And where are Republicans in the House and Senate? I’m sure we’ll be treated to them doubling down on there “we need to accept the results of the election!”
Republicans are useless!
Bttt
Surprise! democrats cheat.
What’s potentially?
It would seem simple enough to find all ballots without a serial number.

No serial number they go in the trash!!!
“...Republicans in the House and Senate? I’m sure we’ll be treated to them doubling down on there “we need to accept the results of the election!”...”
The Republicans whom you despise are the very ones causing and overseeing the audits.
It’s not the Democrats or Independents, it is the Republicans who will bring this thing home for our side.
Partial AZ Audit Results
Reconcile the following:
3981 voted but registered late AFTER Oct 15 deadline
11,326 voted and appeared on rolls after Dec 4
18,000 voted but were then removed from rolls AFTER the stolen election
74,243 mail-in ballots counted but were never sent out
LMAO...No..,.just co-conspirator's...
Nearly every FR thread has someone bitching “where are the Republicans?” It really gets old and I’m glad you told that idiot off.

....
I was speaking of Republicans in the US House and Senate! Where are their voices behind Arizona and Georgia?

....
Why aren’t members of The US House and Senate getting behind Arizona and Georgia en masse?
This Republican Party that you defend told us to accept the results of the massive voter fraud in 2020! The only idiot is you!
I’ll send your love to Mitt Romney and Linda Graham!
Well I would like to see those Republicans that you talk about demand that full Independent audits be conducted in all of the battleground states in question.
Swing states.
Arizona audit reportedly found ‘potentially thousands’ of *duplicated* ballots without serial numbers
This is part of why.

That would be every ballot that wasn't somehow "damaged" and unreadable in the scanner, which would not be a good idea.
Duplicating damaged ballots is a bad idea in the first place, since you can get extra duplicates, errors in duplication, etc. A better idea is to just hand count any ballot that the machine can't count. Few ballots that are voted in person have this problem.
One more reason for in-person voting to be used except in rare instances, like overseas military in remote locations, or people who are unable to come to the polls due to work or illness.
Nobody should be “allowed” to do a damn thing to a damaged ballot.
Trash.
