The Arizona audit — which includes a hand recount of over two million ballots — has reflected bitter partisan divisions in the state, with Republicans and Democrats squaring off in a series of volleys over the conduct of the audit and the political fallout surrounding it. Establishment media outlets have joined in Democratic attacks against the audit, with CNN claiming that the process is "bogus" and FiveThirtyEight calling it a "partisan inquisition."

The second recount would not disrupt the current audit at the coliseum — which has been praised by former President Donald Trump but widely criticized by election experts and officials concerned about the process — because it would use digital images of each ballot.

A former lawyer in the division's Voting Section wants to keep it that way, urging Senate President Karen Fann to resist the "non-existent federal authority" asserted by Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Pamela Karlan earlier this month.

The first-ever audit of the 2020 presidential vote in Maricopa County, Arizona has set off a civil war that pits the Republican-led state senate against Democratic Party officials in charge of supervising statewide elections and also against the Republican officials who dominate Maricopa County.

The most recent ballot count is 660,000 ballots completed as of May 14th, and their goal is to finish counting the ballots by June 30.

Americans now understand the intimidation tactics of the radical left. They’ve seen the vile hate speech towards white Americans. They’ve seen the Mayor of Chicago announce she will only do interviews with black or brown journalists. They’ve seen BLM and Antifa rioting, looting, burning and anarchy. They’ve seen the censorship, banning and hatred towards conservatives by social media and woke corporations. They’ve seen Palestinian mobs beating Jews in the streets of Los Angeles and New York. Radical Democrats have set this nation on fire. Americans finally see the truth. They now understand what happened in those 60 cases involving voter fraud in the 2020 election. Trump and Republicans didn’t lose those 60 cases.

There are facts that show without a doubt the election was stolen from the American People.

“If a coding error can get the name wrong name at the top, how do you know there aren’t coding errors that can screw up the cast, the counting of the ballots themselves?” Dudley pondered. “It’s going to take a long time; I think before anybody gets any degree of comfort with it anymore.”

A faction of Arizona Republicans is actively feuding with the GOP-led Arizona Senate over the audit of the 2020 presidential election results in Maricopa County, with county officials battling Senate President Karen Fann over claims of ‘serious issues’ uncovered by examiners.

Shush! You can’t say “election fraud” in public without being branded a kook or a conspiracy theorist by the legacy media and Democrats (but you can say “fortified“), so we have to resort to acronyms such as the newly-coined “AUDIT” to secretly pass the word along. And there really is a lot of information to pass along about what’s been happening in a number of states in recent days on the AUDIT-of-elections front.

Still another issue arose during the audit that aroused auditors’ suspicions: Dozens of ballot envelopes bore strikingly similar, distinctive handwriting styles in the signatures, suggesting that one or several persons may have filled out and submitted multiple ballots, an act of fraud.

a former special assistant to President Trump claimed a “freight train” of election audits is coming.

Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward provides an update on the political battle as the Maricopa County officials initiate a propaganda war in an attempt to deflect attention from their election misconduct. The Maricopa Board of Supervisors have met in closed-door sessions with lawyers and are now attacking the Arizona Senate and the audit itself.
Kelli Ward walks through the motives, actions and specific people who are attempting to initiate a propaganda war against the State Senate and the people of Arizona.

In a new letter to the board, Senate President Karen Fann is now inviting them and other county officials to a meeting on Tuesday at the Capitol. There, she said, they can sit down with her, Sen. Warren Petersen, R-Gilbert, who chairs the Judiciary Committee, and Ken Bennett who is the Senate liaison with the audit team.

“THE GREATEST AUDIT IN THE GALAXY CONTINUES!!” the account tweeted on May 4.
All of it is made possible by the GOP-controlled state Senate, which issued an unprecedented subpoena demanding access to all ballots and the machines that counted them in Maricopa County, home to the Phoenix area and 60% of Arizona voters.

This afternoon, it was discovered that “the entire database” for the 2020 General election, showing the “Results Tally and Reporting,” has been deleted!
100 Percent Fed Up reports– President of the Arizona Senate Karen Fann has written a letter to Chairman Sellers, demanding answers.
TRENDING: BREAKING: Maricopa County Elections Officials DELETED ENTIRE DATABASE from Voting Machines - Including "All Election Information" from Main Database -- With Copy of Senate Letter
Here is the letter to Maricopa County Supervisor Chairman Jack Sellers from Arizona Senate President Karen Fann:
Dear Chairman Sellers:
I am writing to seek your assistance and cooperation in the resolution of three (3) serious issues that have arisen in the course of the Senate’s ongoing audit of the returns of the November 3, 2020, general election in Maricopa County.
I. Ongoing Non-Compliance with the Legislative Subpoenas
The first issue concerns Maricopa County’s apparent intent to renege on its previous commitment to comply fully with the legislative subpoenas issued on January 13, 2021, which, as you know, Judge Thomason found were valid and enforceable.

As the forensic audit is currently taking place in Maricopa County, Democrats have been making moves to stop the audit from taking place, or at the very least place a number of restrictions on the audit. In a video on Thursday, Dr. Kelli Ward, the chair of the Arizona Republicans, detailed exactly the efforts that are being undertaken by the Democrats, sparked off by Katie Hobbs, the current Secretary of State.

“I also participated in the (2%) random ballot selection for hand audit. Picking the ballots, you know, determining which bins we were going to select. And even with that, Dominion ran the report for it (which bins to pull). So no one, I mean, they (Dominion) knew exactly what was in the hand audit boxes. That made me nervous also. And they also knew when we pulled the last box, which was probably eight days before they quit counting ballots. As a senior manager over big projects, never in a million years would I have allowed some of the stuff that I saw going on there.

The state's Senate Republicans are pushing ahead with the audit of the 2020 election results in Maricopa County, which saw Joe Biden's victory over Donald Trump last November. The effort includes recounting 2.1 million ballots by hand, examining voting equipment, and follow-up interviews with voters. However, the Democratic Party filed a lawsuit with Maricopa County's Superior Court late last week complaining that the Senate's initiative violates "various statutory and Election Procedures Manual provisions" and urged the court to ban it. Meanwhile, the Democratic Party has served up new accusations, claiming that the security at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix, where the ballots and tabulators are being stored, is questionable.

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

Dirtboxes basically operate as fake mobile phone towers, forcing all the (targeted) mobile phones within its range to use their signal for communication purposes. In other words, a dirtbox functions as a cell tower simulator. Also, as the information passes through the cell tower simulator, the dirtbox simultaneously breaks the encryption on the voice and data transmissions of dozens of mobile phones. If you put dirtboxes on an airplane or even a drone, you’ll potentially elicit all sorts of information about hundreds of people. This information shockingly includes recorded telephone conversations, identification of callers and receivers, and even SMSes shared between them.

In a Monday letter sent to Ken Bennett, a former Republican secretary of state in Arizona who is serving as the Republican-led state Senate’s audit liaison, Deputy County Attorney Joseph La Rue said the county “cannot at this time provide the virtual images of routers” to be examined by auditors, citing “a significant security risk to law enforcement data utilized by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office as well as numerous federal agencies.”

The Trojan Horse, with alleged expertise in election technology and security, Ryan Macias, actually got his feet onto the floor of the Veterans Memorial Coliseum and his hands and eyes into the operations. A couple of days later, a six-page letter found its way to the Arizona Senate’s representative, Ken Bennett, with demands that they fix the terrible things which were witnessed by Hobbs’ three observers – the two nonprofit election integrity thugs and Ryan Macias – or else they would end up back in court.
This is what the Democrats’ objective was all along. Get somebody with election technology and security expertise of some sort onto the floor of the audit and then let the sabotage begin. He, Macias, could then testify in front of a judge, as an expert witness, what he saw on the floor of the forensic audit. Macias was the Democrats’ Trojan Horse.

In a state with a reputation for remarkable accuracy in ballot counting, however, Arizona Senate lawmakers have concluded the ongoing audit is necessary to reassure voters who are already skeptical of the results. President Joe Biden became the first Democrat to carry the state’s electoral votes since 1996, capturing Arizona over President Donald Trump by less than 10,000 votes.

Why is a spy plane circling the site of the Arizona election audit?
The best-case scenario is that someone is engaging in domestic surveillance. But there's a much darker scenario that could be in motion.
