> audit

The *only* reason that any "open democratic free fair etc" government
or political party would ever refuse to allow full open monitoring and forensic
audit of all elections, process, metadata, data, ballots, video, hardware,
software, firmware, funding, funders, news media, advertisers, donors,
lobbyists, etc... is that those elections are fraudulent and they are deathly
afraid of anyone finding out and them going to jail or losing power.
Period, end of story. And they've been censoring and downranking
even just news about the simple existance of such audits, evidence,
and questions for nine months now. The US and worlds people
are being played like suckers by power.

Update (1515ET):

During Thursday's Arizona Senate hearing, auditors revealed that
Maricopa County has refused to turn over necessary items - including
routers, chain-of-custody documentation, and images of mail-in
ballots. What's more, 11,326 voters mysteriously appeared on voter
rolls after the election, and 74,000 ballots were reportedly received
but have no records to back them up.

Update (1352ET): Oddly, right as Senate President Karen Fann suggested
that auditors may not be able to determine whether a ballot had been
duplicated once, or ten times, YouTube pulled the feed we had
originally embedded, claiming it violated their Terms of Service.

An alternate stream has been embedded below.

The Arizona Senate is holding a public briefing with leaders of the
ongoing election audit authorized by Senate President Karen Fann.

    It’s an update and briefing not the appropriate time for any
testifying https://t.co/B88ITYCIrT

Fann is joined by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Warren Peterson,
along with Senate audit liaison Ken Bennett and the leaders of two of
the vendors hired to conduct the audit, Cyber Ninjas CEO Doug Logan
and CyFIR founder Ben Cotton, according to KTAR.

More via KTAR:

Cyber Ninjas was hired as lead contractor for the audit, which started
April 23 after the Senate won a legal battle with Maricopa County for
access to election equipment and approximately 2.1 million ballots
from the November 2020 general election in metro Phoenix.

Fann told KTAR News 92.3 FM’s The Mike Broomhead Show on Tuesday that
the number ballots tallied during the audit didn’t match the total
documented by Maricopa County, but she didn’t know how far off the
counts were.

Most audit operations have wrapped up, but counting machines are being
used to recheck of the total number of ballots, a process that was
expected to continue into next week.

Audit officials have said a final report was expected to be released
in late July or August.

The U.S. House Oversight and Reform Committee sent Logan a letter
Wednesday requesting documentation about Cyber Ninjas’ role in the
audit, funding and possible connections to former President Donald
Trump or his surrogates.

Cyber Ninjas had no previous experience conducting election audits.
Fann’s selection of the Florida-based firm’s $150,000 bid quickly drew
scrutiny over Logan’s deleted Twitter account, which had activity
supporting unfounded election conspiracy theories.

The low bid doesn’t cover the cost of the operation, expected to be in
the millions, and fundraising has been taking place in the name of the
audit.

Fann has said the aim of the process is to restore faith in the
election system and find ways to improve Arizona’s voting laws, not to
reverse the result of the election.

However, many Trump supporters see it as a step toward invalidating
President Joe Biden’s victory and returning Trump to office.
