The impression I get from most local media (SE MI) reporting is that the only ‘evidence’ that matters is that in the end, Biden was inaugurated and sworn in as POTUS and that’s the name of that tune, end-of-story, period. The straight coverage of how ongoing audits continue to reveal chronic or end-to-end irregularities and worse, along with the possibility of that happening in MI makes the MI blue state media very anxious for Trump to go away, but it ain’t gonna happen. By the time he returns to MI for yet another great MAGA rally, they should have a lot of explaining to do but that probably won’t happen either. The entire MAGA movement will probably have to double and triple down in order to gain the undivided attention that it rightfully deserves. It will be the voice of the American people for a change and not this act of criminal ventriloquism they’ve been trying to get us to go along with.

One explanation to this video-
Dec 5 vs Dec 15.
Bennett did not misspoke. According to AZ law, registration ends 29 day before the election day, which would be Dec 5. However, the Democrats found some judge who on Dec 5 changed the registration deadline.
Reasoning, guess why, Covid!
That actually threw a massive wrench into AZ election as nobody was ready for that. The all voter registration process resulted in total chaos. Eventually, even the Democrats decided this is too much and asked the deadline to end on Dec 15 (it was supposed to last even longer).

So until Dec 15 everybody was legal to register, even against the AZ law!

However that judge decision generated enough commotion that the whole election was compromised. Nobody really knew who was registered and who not. There were people dropped from the registration (mostly Republicans) who should not be dropped. There were registered (mostly Democrats) who should not be registered. Just total chaos, blamed on Covid and the judge.
I was somewhat involved and it was such a chaos, they really should call the election off and re-do! Even without any audit!

The findings come amid a controversial "audit" being conducted in Maricopa County by a private firm, Cyber Ninjas. Commissioned by the state's GOP-led state Senate, that review has been dismissed by experts as a partisan endeavor intended to substantiate former President Donald Trump's false claims that he won.


No bias in this paragraph, at all! /s 😊

How could Dec. 5 be before election day, which was Nov. 3? Do you mean October 5?

Yes. Objective "journalism" at its finest. These days journalism = propaganda. No difference.

AZ election was totally chaotic because of two “innovations”.
One was abovementioned registration deadline, the other countywide voting. One could vote anywhere in the county, regardless of precinct. That make fraud a lot of easier as one could only rely on this messed up computer system to check for voter registration. And potentially only one crooked voting place could generate humongous vote fraud.
In precincts, people know other people and in anyway, there are only few hundred people registered. So crooked board could only generated maybe 100 fraudulent votes.
With countywide voting, one place could potentially generate hundreds of thousands of crooked votes!

Just like in Georgia, its mostly RINOs who led the fraud. The Maricopa County election board is composed of mostly RINOs.

How do these guys get away with ignoring a court issued subpeona to hand over the routers? You or I would not be able to just ignore a court order like that. They should get the same treatment anybody else would get. That is, the state police show up, order them to hand over the routers right then and there and if they don’t comply, they get cuffed and stuffed and hauled off to jail for contempt of court. Bail denied unless and until such time as they produce the routers. It can literally be up to them how long they want to remain in jail.

Those routers would get produced awfully fast.

They might be willing to remain in jail a very long time. Remember these are the RINOs that were more upset that Trump was implementing conservative policy, than that there were questions about Obama's eligibility. I would stat that until the audit is complete there was no evidence of a legitimate election, and decertify the senate results (effectively removing one Dem from the senate and the Dem Majority). This would bring the desired evidence more quickly.

These are upper middle class or richer country club corporate whores. They won't last more than 2 days in jail before they give it up. No way are they prepared to give up their comfy lives in order to maintain the fraud. They can always go back to their country clubs and tell their Leftist buddies that gosh....they tried.....but mean ole MAGA types left them no choice.

Personally I think RINOs goals are just to stay in office. They care very little about policy conservative or liberal, just the policy that keeps their butt in the chair. They also want the idea permanently established that they and their type - the professional politician are necessary. No one else can understand or cope with the complexities of government other then a professional politician. Trump broke and his success threatened that paradigm. If a nonprofessional can be a success other nonprofessionals might be also and the voters might get in their heads that the professional politician is not necessary. If there's a RINO conspiracy with Rats its an unspoken unplanned conspiracy of convenience. Why would Rats do RINOs the favor of keeping them in office when they have their own professionals to put there. Also Rats are deadly serious about policy which motivates them far more then butt in a chair.

They've already been demonetized on YouTube.

Extension of registration deadline nets more than 35,000 new voters in Arizona
Andrew Oxford
Arizona Republic

More than 35,000 people signed up to vote during a 10-day extension of Arizona’s voter registration deadline, the Secretary of State’s Office estimated Friday.

Though the extension was sought by progressive advocacy groups, the Republican Party ended up gaining more voters than the Democratic Party during the extra days, as the Republican National Committee argued in court to cut off registration.

Still, most of the voters — about 44% — who signed up before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals stopped registration Oct. 15 did not affiliate with either major political party.

Initial data showed 10,922 voters registered as Republicans, 8,292 registered as Democrats and 498 as Libertarians. Another 15,422 voters registered without affiliating with any of those parties.

A federal judge moved the deadline in a last-minute order on Oct. 5 after two advocacy groups, Arizona Coalition for Change and Mi Familia Vota, argued that the COVID-19 pandemic had impeded efforts to register new voters and that the state’s online registration system does not help Arizonans who live without internet or certain forms of identification.

But the decision by Judge Steven P. Logan set off a legal battle that culminated in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals cutting off registration on Oct. 15. The attorney general, secretary of state and Republican National Committee all argued that the sudden change had raised a series of problems for election officials and was inappropriate so late in the election calendar.

Still, campaigns, political parties and advocacy groups used the 10 extra days to register more voters for an election in which big races could be decided by small margins of victory.

The numbers are not final. Election officials continued to process voter registration forms Friday that were submitted on paper. And election officials have recommended newly registered voters wait a week after submitting their registration before attempting to vote at a polling place.

State Rep. Reginald Bolding, a Democrat from Laveen and co-executive director of Arizona Coalition for Change, said the numbers vindicated the organization’s argument in court that there were plenty of eligible voters who still wanted to register.

Arizona Coalition for Change hosts one last voter registration drive at the Jesse Owens Building on Oct. 15, 2020.
But while the organization would often seek out voters in high-traffic public areas, like libraries and school campuses, many such places were far quieter this year due to public health precautions.

“Those sites weren’t available. We couldn’t go to the library. Campuses didn’t have students walking around,” he said.

The additional time allowed the groups to reach more voters.

As for the partisan breakdown, he said: “We clearly stated we wanted to do this for the entire state of Arizona, not one particular party.”

But in court, the Attorney General’s Office and the Republican National Committee argued that the decision was simply too late, citing higher court decisions cautioning against changing the rules of an election on the eve of voting.

Election officials raised concerns that the sudden change would disrupt carefully planned processes for starting early voting, processing ballots received from voters and getting ready for Election Day.

Lynn Constabile, elections director in Yavapai County, said some of her office’s staff would have shifted from processing voter registrations after the deadline to processing ballots received from voters. But some staff are still working on registrations, she said Thursday.

Constabile said she expects her office will catch up but added that ballots are already arriving fast.
