Earlier today Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward noted the Maricopa Board of Supervisors (BoS) was engaging in a propaganda war against the people of Arizona and the State Senate. It didn’t take long for evidence to surface.
The Board of Supervisors sends the media a copy of the 13-page letter they claim to have sent to the Arizona Senate. However, AZ Senate President Karen Fann has never even see the letter. [LINK] The BoS sent the letter to the media before they sent it to the AZ Senate. Yeah, propaganda.

Sounds like they want us to give up.
Nope

Many thanks, nimrodman! Every time I see and hear President Trump, I’m in it to win it, BIG TIME!!!
Perfect!
Meme of the day!!!
That’s great!
Why even think of giving-up.
The propaganda letter only proves how desperate they have become. Things are unraveling all around them. They are lashing out like cornered cats. I mean they are admitting their complicity in plain view for every wronged American voter to see in broad daylight.
They aren’t fooling anyone who hasn’t been fooled and remain fooled from the get-go. However, there are less fooled than there was awhile ago.
Desperation for sure/
TREASON EQUALS
DEATH PENALTY.
Fan,
That’s the key part of your comment: there are less fooled than there as a while ago.
The more the cheaters cry and push back the more people start to ask, why? Why doth you protest so much if you are so innocent? Why?
My wife, a Democrat who voted Trump is even starting to wonder why they are pushing back so hard. She has been telling me to get over it for months now up until recently. She is now just saying- something funny must have happened or they wouldn’t be fighting so hard.
That is happening to more and more people. They may not be where we Treeeprs are currently but they are now wanting to see the audit finished because fishy things have already been found.
“It is inevitable that they will arrive at questionable conclusions.”
Their fear tastes like raspberry ice cream to me. Sweet, tangy, addictive.
Sherbert. Raspberry sherbert.
That statement is truth disguised as a misdirect.
The MCBE knows fraud occurred, they assisted with it. So, they know the audit already found issues and will find more issues- the specificity of the auditor’s/Senate’s requests let them know as much. So the speak truth as a redirect-
Yes, it is inevitable they will arrive at questionable conclusions…..because they want to mislead the people not because the audit is actually finding fraud.
The MCBE is hoping we the people are idiots and fools.
Do they really imagine themselves as above an audit?
They look more and more guilty with each refusal to cooperate.
its because “they dont know how to do an audit”. at least not the way its “normally done”.
normal audit for them = look, but don’t really look, and purposefully not find anything, and close it quickly
“they dont know how to do an audit” They don’t know how to run an election.
The letter addresses the Senate, emphasis in capitals:
“…when you decided to subpoena ‘OUR’ equipment and ballots…”
Those ballots belong to the Board? And the machines?
Why just last week the equipment belonged to Dominion, the Board said they had no access to the machines?
Election Integrity? Did their Election Department actually run the election?
Volunteer Jan Bryant claims two Dominion employees were in charge of the election process in Maricopa. She stated that election workers were sent home at 3:00 in the afternoon on Election Day while computers were being rebooted. When they returned the counting went on for days.
Voting systems and public personnel running them are paid by taxpayer money.
The TAXPAYERS own elections and the equipment to conduct them!
These election “officials” are not above the taxpaying public. They are supposed to serve them with integrity. Instead, they come off as pompous jerks.
Adding to my own thoughts —
In accounting, the least experienced people often start as auditors before moving on to other areas of the practice. People who have been audited on a regular basis in support of a private business sometimes had to educate inexperienced auditors, make detailed explanations to help auditor’s overcome their lack of understanding, and on very rare occasions even challenge the results of an audit when there are errors.
That’s how it is done. Refusing to cooperate is not how it is done. No sane person would ever invest one damn dime in any business that behaves as Maricopa County is behaving now.
And if you do challenge, your life is made very, very unpleasant and you MUST stay strong.
“And if you do challenge, your life is made very, very unpleasant and you MUST stay strong.”
:0) Truth
Having done bank audits for many years, I whole-heartedly agree! The people who do the audits are often completely unaware of what is REALLY happening and are thus easy to fool, but once someone who knows what they are doing gets on scene, everything changes very quickly!
My hope is that is what is happening in Arizona and once the BOS is put in their place, the real truth will FINALLY be revealed!!
And there are no term limits for these crooks.
In their meeting today, one of them even said his mother doesn’t believe it was on the up and up. No wonder they all want to save face.
You got some splainin’ to do Lucy.
The louder he spoke of his honor the faster we counted our spoons.

Quote of the day! Excellent.
And yet they hold over us the so called Jan. 6th Insurrection.
That narrative is only for their own benefit. Anyone with half a brain knows the real deal and are not affected by their rhetoric.
New Video Shows U.S. Capitol Police Gave Protesters OK to Enter on Jan. 6By Jim Hoft
…
The new video reveals that police invited several protesters into the US Capitol that day. Several of these same protesters were later charged by overzealous prosecutors and smeared by the press.
…
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/05/new-video-shows-u-s-capitol-police-gave-protesters-ok-enter-jan-6/
As someone WHO WAS THERE, I can tell you this is a fact. The only people I saw on Jan 6 overcome by anything were a few elderly folks and a youngish teen girl overcome by the teargas and flashbangs DEPLOYED AGAINST US. I personally witnessed people stop to converse with police before filling the stands on the mall side of the capitol building.
13 pages of bs that I won’t read.
They are obviously embarrassed/scared of their corruption and/or incompetence being fully on display.
If AZ is like CA, boards of supervisors are often the most corrupt of bodies as they do their business away from the glare of where most people live, in cities/towns with city councils.
Of course, now that local newspapers are dead, all pols get a chance to work in darkness.
Maricopa Board of Supervisors, “It is time to end this now, for the good of the senate, country and democratic institutions.”
They forgot to mention for the good of the Maricopa Board of Supervisors, who are mostly responsible for this mess!
I would suggest they end it all for themselves and come clean…there’s a reckoning coming.
Find the weakest link among them, and put unbearable pressure upon the weakest link. Then put the rest in prison for 10 plus year.
How about some peaceful demonstrations in front of ALL the Board of Supervisors’ homes?
I think the libs also like to “dox” people they don’t like so let’s do that too.
I like viewing this process as as a physical one, that is operating under the laws of physics. Applying increasing pressure will likely cause a component of the BOS to spring a leak, or worse.
The members of the Maricopa BoS are speaking like the Ministry of Truth in the book 1984. Whatever they say, you can be sure it is not the truth, and may be under duress (FBI?).
It is at this point that the BOS realize that they didn’t get nearly enough money/blackmail for what they have done. They thought they were acting for the “greater good” (i.e. their pocketbooks and favor with the Democrat Party) but are now realizing that the swamp water in which they have been swimming is quickly warming in the spring/summer heat. In Arizona, swimming in boiling water can be hazardous to your health. Don’t worry, though. The Democrats had years of observing the effects of Arkancide on those detrimental to their plots. The word must be out–end this audit or become Seth Rich, Jeffrey Epstein, …
Wouldn’t it be nice to see who the BOS voted for in a leaked scenario?
The tell is the capitalization of Democratic in the final line.
.
Yep.
Democratic is mob rule — whatever can be bullied by loud people.
We are a Republic, and we, the people, have asked that our grievances regarding the 2020 election be redressed by our elected representatives in the state legislative body, the AZ State Senate.
Now, Maricopa BOS, why are you and your cronies attempting to thwart the Unites States Constitution in action?
If nothing illegal happened then why fear the audit?
How does finding out the truth hurt the country and our democratic institutions?
We have nothing to fear but fear itself. And an actual forensic audit.
FDR
They know they are so screwed… so end this, for the good of the country. LOL
Act of desperation. What little of the letter we can read, the desperate pleas to end the audit are pathetic.
The BOS obviously has no fear of the State Senate. Does the Senate have any power over them? Also realize that the establishment media is suppressing this story so 90% of the USA has no knowledge of anything from Arizona audit.
EZgoer, the senate does not have any specific power over the BOS. This is a county position that is answerable to the voters. They obviously should obey the state laws enacted by the legislature. That would include the election laws.
If the BOS broke any of these laws, it would be up to the AG to take any action.
The state senate did have the authority to subpoena information from them pertaining to the election. They refused to obey it, and I believe it took a judge to order them to produce it.
The US constitution gives the legislature the responsibility to manage elections. Only they can delegate it, and they can rescind it at any time. that is what was recognized by the courts, the courts do not have authority over this and the board of supervisors will soon find out they are dealing with the authority with jurisdiction in the senate.
Karen Fann was being magnanimous by asking them to appear rather than compelling them.
And, Red, the Senate does have the authority to take them into custody. Which should have been done a long time ago. I’m tired of the two-tiered justice system at both the state and federal levels.
Politicians are never held accountable. If you or I failed to answer a subpoena we would have been arrested long ago. Long long ago and the subpoenaed items taken by force.
In fact, just issue a search warrant. The BOS actions provide probable cause for a search. Issue a warrant. Add that next legal step.
What I want to know is who wrote that 13 page letter for the Board? Lawfare?
You win the prize!!
Delaying enforcement provides opportunities for anti-audit people. Delay provides opportunity for lawfare. It provides opportunity for DOJ.
At this point if the DOJ moves in they can no longer claim there was no Hickory Dickory.
I’ll bet Dominion and their lawyers wrote it—and the techno-babble about the missing database. The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors don’t understand the technology well enough to have written that reply. As CodeMonkeyZ on Telegram put it: “Why two pages of smoke and mirrors when one sentence will suffice?
“The database is stored here: …”
Steel yourselves, this is as much a Psyop to demoralize as it is a provocation to bait the more impulsive into imprudent actions.
Actions like sending subpoenas to the people they have “invited” to come and testify?
Why haven’t subpoenas already been issued?
Too many of them are part of the problem and would likely wish for the people to go back to being ignorant and inattentive to what is really going on behind closed doors.
In short, business as usual before President Trump.
All talk and no substance, vaporous, ephemeral and mostly drivel.
Most of what you would hear would be variations on”vote for me”, “give me more funding or else bad things will happen”, “nice business you got there…”.
I.e. stereotypical bureaucrats/politicians/ con men etc.
Subpoenas are too tame, warrants need to be issued by those in power. Enough proof of laws being broken already- just with the lack of having the passwords.
It’s so strange that when they want you give in to their demands, “it’s good for the Country”. See how that works? Finding out the truth is not “good for the Country”, I guess. Thieves!
“For the Common Good” – All the villains in “Hot Fuzz” (2006)
Classic!
Think of our children… and our children’s children. What will you say to your grandchildren when they ask you: why did you destroy the U.S. in 2021, grandma?
Or why do we have to speak Chinese?
Or, I don’t want to eat dogs for dinner. I like dogs. Dogs are my friends.
Why can’t we have steak like El Presidente’ and his family?
“You asked question. Now go to gulag.”
I was being sarcastic… but that works, too. It works both ways!
They mean that as a threat of what they will do if you DON’T stop the audit. They hope to scare you into submission. We are two hours way from where they are meeting, and the resident militia is loaded and ready. This city used to be the Capitol of Arizona, so the militia is well-trained and READY! Bring it on!
13 pages sounds like a group effort.
None of them trust any one member to write the letter.
They do not find themselves on offense at all. They find themselves trapped. What they are doing is not the kind of thing which just magically goes away. Aren’t you glad you are not one of them?
And, they keep shining more light on it. Not the AZ Senate, but the MCBE is doing that on their own, all in a vain attempt to hide their crimes. Or, at a minimum, their part in the crimes.
Hickman is going to be most likely to squeal and throw the others under the bus. The old guy is too entrenched. Gates and his wife are too complicit.
The AZ Senate needs to isolate each MCBE and question them individually and not as a group. Isolate and make them feel all alone. Then cross-check all answers that don’t align. You isolate and they lose the feeling of power and support. Make them squirm.
Sounds more like Lawfare. Sounds like K Street. Sounds like bills written for Congress. Brevity is absolutely banned. If a bill has more than a couple of hundred pages, the percentage of people willing to read it drops to about 2 and the percentage of those 2% that can understand the legal gobble-de-gook drops to about 4. Making it a 13 page letter that is written in snark and jibberish simply means that they are trying a subtle threat–nothing overt, nothing obvious, nothing identifiable as DNC sponsored–but a threat nonetheless!
Fear. the city is ripe with it.
Wheens, do you live there? I read several days ago, Antifa was supposed to show up there. I don’t know why though.
No I don’t. Haven’t heard that though either.
Sounds very familiar; remember leaks to WaPo, et. al.? All mysteriously appear just before something they don’t want you to look at! Same ol’ tricks we saw played out in DC for the last 4 years (or more).
Yeah the distractions of the FBI leaks to the NY Times, and the CIA Leaks to the Amazon post.
Those anonymous leaks that started all those investigations were all a bunch of nonsense. But served their purpose well.
Where does the BOS get their authority? If it’s from the citizens, then the citizens should rise up, meet the sheriff and remind him of his constitutional duties, fire the board and march forward with the audit!
Exactly.
That is the manner in which a Republic, which IS the form of government in these United States, operates — Constitutionally.
As opposed to the Banana Republic government which was installed in Washington on 1/20/2021?
Correction: 1/20/2009.
Joyce, since the citizens elected them, they would have to petition for a recall election. Then hopefully, they would be voted out. Now, if they broke laws, then the sheriff could arrest them. So far there is no proof of that.
If only the Sheriff had an honest and Constitution loving bone…..Maricopa County Sheriff is owned by Soros.
The BOS gets its authority from the legislature which created the BOS. A.R.S. §11-211
Definitely
Erin Burnett just interviewed on of the RINO election commissioners who claimed that the auditor claim of the database being erased was exasperating as “I am sitting here looking on the database on my other computer screen”. Very rude interview and unprofessional. Burnett is a gunt.
Yeah, the data/evidence always seems to disappear with these people. Then at some point later… it’s magically back/they find it.
The question should always be– what was altered in the lapse?
You mean, like Hillary’s Rose Law Firm documents magically appeared on a desk in the White House?
Is that the same guy who is confusing the “voter registration database” with the “Election database”?
No one is claiming the voter registration database is missing.
Good ole Texas two-step. Or, double speak. Gotta fool the fools.
Was it the County Recorder, named Richer? He is supposed to be “republican”
Miss Burnett should of followed with “Well, if you have it on your screen, why has it not been turned over as requested via the subpoena? You are admitting to breaking the law on camera. Did Dominion give it to you?”
And, if this is a game being played by the BOS, why? You only make yourselves look more guilty and sneaky.
End it for the good of the country? What kind of fool continues to say that with the evidence that has already been uncovered?
End it so people do not find out their votes meant nothing because the elections were stolen.
Dear Karen,
In our way of thinking Commies are good for the country, and certainly for the good of the country, the end justifies the means.
So be good sports, won’t ya? Stop this audit, before the fraud is revealed, and for the good of the country, my country… China.
Sincerely,
your pal,
Chairman Xi
(PS – you can call me Pooh)
You sure you didn’t mean Poo?
Darn autocorrect ?
NO matter what 100% corruption of Democrat AZ,
This person’s tweet has the link to the 14 page (pdf format) letter sent by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors:
In the letter they (the BoS) states they will not be attending tomorrow’s, May 18, meeting requested by the Senate.
Is it subpoena time yet?
Jail time…
Just once i would like to see a leftist go to prison for their illegal actions. Is that too much to ask?
It was subpoena time a long time ago.
Tar and feathers.
MoPar2020, Why on earth haven’t they been subpoenaed? Professional courtesy maybe, from one body of political crooks to other political crooks.
Here it is: “There could be other explanations as well, including the possibility that your “auditors” inadvertently, or purposefully, moved—or even deleted—certain data.”
Desperation.
Yeah… a Data Forensics team takes it upon themselves… while The World is watching… to violate Federal Law by deleting data from an Election System under audit.
That would be like walking around with a plastic bag full of High Octane Gasoline… not a good idea.
Right…without Admin rights…what a bunch of LIARS!
It’s a good read, folks…
They are just throwing crap against the wall… but it’s plopping down on the floor, unfortunately for them.
Check it:
Page 4.
Your First Question: The County has not provided any chain-of-custody documentation for the ballots. Does such documentation exist, and if so, will it be produced?
The Answer:
We are stunned that you are asking us this question. It demonstrates a spectacular lack of understanding [blah blah blah]
… then they go on to describe in excruciating detail the process of delivering all of the ballots to the audit site, and wrap it up with…
Once delivery was complete, counsel for the County prepared a document evidencing the chain of custody of the materials delivered, with the manifests as an exhibit stating that the items in the manifests had been delivered from the County to the Senate’s custody.
[…]
In short, both the Senate and the County have been given sufficient chain of custody documentation for the ballots, which currently remain in your custody. Your suggestion to the contrary is demonstrably wrong.
Get it? Their “chain-of-custody documentation” is not the… uh… CHAIN-OF-CUSTODY DOCUMENTATION… it’s the stupid receipt that all the lawyers signed when the ballots were delivered to the audit site.
These people are a-scum a-bags.
Yes, I noticed that weasel move. They conflated a request for chain of custody information on ballots during the election with just chain of custody for the transfer to the auditors.
CNN and MSNBC will run with it… by design…
Ooohhhh… 14 page response… ooohhhh
Yes.
They did a similar hustle when responding to the question about why some boxes of ballots were sealed with packing tape and not sealed with security tape.
The BOS responded that at no time were those boxes not sealed with security tape in an insecure environment and the were kept in a very safe safe.
I’m not an election expert but it seems to me every time boxes of ballots are moved — anywhere — the boxes the ballots are in should be numbered and sealed with security tape six ways from Sunday and a record kept of who touched the boxes, who puts the ballots in the boxes, who transports the boxes who opens the boxes and who seals the boxes.
Indeed.
Or how ’bout this: why do some boxes have security tape, but others do not? Not logical considering one group of the same people are responsible for all post-election management of the ballots. Or maybe it’s all just sloppy, who knows.
mr. piddles, I don’t know much about”chain of custody,” but I don’t think the counsel for the county can prepare a document as evidence to show chain of custody. That would have to come from the election officials, wouldn’t it? Does anyone know how this works?
At a high level: the handling of all ballots is required to be fully traceable… who handled the ballots, where were they transferred to/from, when was the transfer, etc. The chain-of-custody documentation is probably a standard requirement across all states’ election laws.
And by “transfer” I mean everything… collecting ballots from drop-boxes, etc.
The AZ Senate should request chain of custody forms from other counties. Once they get them, say, see, MCBE see how easy that was…these three other counties got us the information and documents within an hour of the request. See, this is what the documents look like. Do you have these? No. Well then.
Such a document cannot be prepared – it must be surrendered, else it is fake. I do have knowledge of ‘chain-of-custody’ and security measures of such….and if you cannot produce it, you are scuppered.
What they are really saying is the link in the chain of custody to the senate from the county was documented.
But did the county provide the complete chain of custody documentation for the ballots from interment to the handoff to the senate? The Auditors are saying it’s incomplete.
For instance when the County sent the ballots on a joyride around the valley before the Senate asked for them where did they go?
If what’s been floating around recently as rumor is true… that significant numbers of ballots are fake (probably churned out by Sendeck’s printers)… then they wouldn’t have accompanying fake chain-of-custody documentation for the fake ballots. So they probably destroyed whatever CoC docs they did have rather than hand over docs where the ballot totals don’t add up. They didn’t expect anyone to examine ALL 2.1 million ballots.
You see, that’s why if you’re gonna steal an election, you don’t do it half-assed. You manufacture whatever database files and CoC docs that you need to fill in the gaps.
What about the broken seals? Where is the documentation concerning the broken seals?
Shouldn’t chain-of-custody of ballots go from the point they come off the printing press and set to the County for voting and until they are legally destroyed?
I don’t think chain of custody means what the BOS thinks it means.
Little Biotches gonna bitch like Little Biotches…
In your letter, you invite us to attend a meeting at the Arizona State Capitol on Tuesday, May 18, 2021, at 1:00 p.m., and you request that we bring Election Department officials who would have knowledge of our elections procedures. We will not be attending. We will not be responding to any additional inquiries from your “auditors”. Their failure to understand basic election processes is an indication you didn’t get the best people to perform in your political theatre. We have wasted enough County resources. People’s tax dollars are real, your “auditors” are not.
Boo hoo. Tell it to the judge.
Waaaaay past time. The repugnant BOS should have already been arrested.
Yea absolutely.
We’ve slow-walked down this road where nobody is arrested road for years and years.
It’s called Barr Blvd.
It dead ends at Durham Dr.
Snarky arseholes. That response is an unprofessional embarrassment . Definitely has the Lawfare M O. written all over it .
I look forward to the Senate/Auditor response.
it appears depends sales in Arizona will be a hot seller soon..
2021.05.17 Response Letter to Senate President Fann – FINAL_202105171430291332.pdf
Sounds like…
Yes, PANIC!
“It is inevitable that they will arrive at questionable conclusions”
Yes, at first they said “we don’t have the passwords! We never did!” But it was their job to have access to all of this. But sure, let’s ask Dominion! “Hell no! We won’t go!” says Dominion. The source code is supposed to be held in escrow and can be examined as part of an audit. Well? Why haven’t they?
The senate needs to hold them in contempt and or order their arrest for failure to comply with previously issue subpoenas.
Smash that BAD BOY… get yerself a High Score.
Yeeeeeehhhaaaaa!
No, they want a Reset button. Oh wait, that says Overcharge. OK, that will work too.
It will cost you MILLION$$$$$ to get the routers. They are made of the finest gold China has to offer.
Sounds a lot like blackmail to me.
Flagstaff AZ homeless mom with newborn!
Visiting the GC and Sedona we stayed in Flagstaff. Last Thursday night we stopped at the Walmart on Butler Rd and saw a 30 year old homeless woman with a newborn in a shopping cart by the front entrance to Walmart. The woman and baby were WHITE. As we exited the parking lot the woman was sitting in the far end of the Walmart parking lot with the baby on the pavement. It was 39° that night. I emailed the Chief of Police and gave a full description of what I saw. He responded they would investigate. The woman was very loving of the baby and doing the best she could. Anybody here from Arizona that can help???
Something’s going to go down with these people, I don’t know whether it’s going to be the Lord cleaning house or what;
But something big is going to go down.
i sense that too. but Lord cleaning house will be clouds rolling away. not dominion going to jail.
Yeah, I meant the whole bigger picture. All these reprobates that have drained off their cup of iniquity.
“It’s time to end it for the good of the country.”
TRANSLATION:
1) They know they are caught and trapped.
2) What they have been caught doing is so bad it threatens the country’s survival.
3) They have no “out”. They cannot turn over the passwords and missing data without revealing that Dominion was manipulating the vote totals.
If the audit was really a joke, they’d turn everything over and let the auditors make fools of themselves.
Liars are going to lie. How can the whole Board of Supervisors be so blatantly corrupt? Is there a press in Arizona that will go after these people? It is important to keep pushing against these corruptocrats until they topple over. Jail time is a must. Our best hope is that individual states still have a judiciary that is not in the tank.
If the election was really on the ‘up and up’, then the audits would have been done ages ago to ‘shut the Trump supporters up’.
Obviously the election was not proper, and thus stolen.
Their claims about the auditors “not having the experience necessary” are ridiculous.
This is the first time in American history where an election audit this thorough has been conducted.
The auditors contracted by the senate have carefully planned their methods and procedures. They have been open and transparent, publishing them online.
All the Senate has to do to discredit this latest propaganda is remind the BoS of all the audit procedures from human examination to microscopic scans of ballot ovals and paper folds, then demand that the BoS prove their claim of other people having “more experience” by providing evidence of a previous election audit that used all of the same procedures. The lying filth-weasels of the MCBoS can’t do that, because no one but the current Arizona auditors have any experience in this type of audit.
The time has come for the Arizona equivalent of the FBI / DoJ to begin arresting the reticent members of the Maricopa BoS and any defiant entity of the forensic voting audit process.
Roger Stone was arrested like a war criminal. POTUS election fraud perpetrators deserve at least as much consideration. The process will be facilitated once the perpetrators are faced with criminal charges and ample legal evidence is available to support the charges.
Imagine an audit where the auditors are so incompetent that they quickly discovered that the Maricopa Board of Elections either doesn’t have at all, has but refuses to turn over, or doesn’t have because they illegally gave full election control to Dominion Voting Systems…the administrative passwords to the system that counts the votes. AND, central databases where the votes are maintained were deleted.
Usually, incompetent and unqualified people DON’T find things. These auditors have merely identified the one thing that if Maricopa County turns over, quite possibly pulls the roof down on the entire fraudulent election.
Do you mean that the audits by the BOS were done by incompetents that didn’t find out that Dominion had full control of the election? I’m shocked!
But dominion gave the previous auditors the passwords in spite of the fact they weren’t accredited at the time, they were accredited later so I guess that makes it OK
.
Dominion was the previous auditors . . .
It may be the first time an audit has been conducted with experts on board, but it cannot be the last time.
Please remember there are Democrats AND GOP sitting at the BoS’s table. The BoS’s head guy is GOP.
They are the Uniparty.
And they are all afraid, very afraid.
Kinda nice to sit and watch. Please pass the popcorn, salted with lots of butter.
Do not forget the covfefe.
It’s the McCain Cartel.
Uniparty says they will not respond to any more requests!
“As elected leaders from different political parties, we are all united at Maricopa County. The accusations from the Senate President are deeply offensive and this letter will be the last time we respond to requests from this sham process,” said Chairman Jack Sellers, District 1. “To the Senate, we say: finish what you’re calling an audit and be ready to defend your report in a court of law.”
https://www.maricopa.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=2298
Sounds like a guy who knows he is screwed. Why does he need a court of law to determine the results of an audit. If the audit determines fraud what is it determines not fraud?
It seems to me he has already admitted the audit will determine fraud.
They’re definitely cornered.
This will not be settled in a court of law but in the court of public opinion.
75 million +
like that worked…no, this will only be settled one way….prepare.
Lol, their temper tantrum doesn’t change the fact that they violated a court order, destroyed evidence in violation of State and Federal Law, and and apparently have zero administrative control over their computerized election systems.
AZ Senate should order them all removed from office.
OK, then we will send you this nice subpoena.
Back at cha…
Prepare to defend any identified audit fraud.
They are refusing to turn over passwords for the machines or answer questions about deleted files. A good judge should be able to make them answer and if a court of law is needed, let’s go.
It’s easy to pretend you are GOP when you know your voting machines/tabulators will make the left choice for you regardless. It is all kabuki theater. A total pretense. Just like RINO’s pretending to be conservatives.
Severely conservative.
jeans2nd, regardless of what is found, I doubt that any of the BOS will suffer any consequences for their insufferable behavior.
Please remember the GOP at the BoS’s table is a RINO who is OK with election fraud..
Are there any elected Democrats who are against election fraud ?
Voter ID should be supported by both parties.
“Are there any Democrats who are against election fraud?” Good question. I’m waiting to see just one.
the fact that they are not in a holding cell already
and still writing letters
doesn’t give me a warm and fuzzy
When they don’t show up, send the Sargeant at Arms and arrest them and put them in isolation. If they try to use the courts, tell the courts to set aside as they are interfering with separation of powers and tell them to pound sand. If Fed government shows up, arrest them for interfering in a state corruption investigation and throw them into isolation.
No more Mr. Nice Guy and collegial interactions. They had an opportunity to do the right thing. Playtime is over…
You got it!
Us plebes would already be in jail.
If you read the Az Republic you will see they got the opinion,entertainment,sports columnists all working overtime to discredit the audit
Election fraud is now a sport.

This person’s tweet has the link to the 14 page (pdf format) letter sent by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors:
In the letter they (the BoS) states they will not be attending tomorrow’s, May 18, meeting requested by the Senate.
Start the recall process on the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, all of them.
I would think a State Legislature, exercising its US Constitutional authority to direct elections, could remove the Board directly, appoint a temporary BoS, and they’d get plenty of cooperation at that point. Oh, and DVS would be in breech of contract if it doesn’t turn over everything it has to the new BoS.
If the BoS, Gov, SOS, or AG wants to go to court, let’s go. They’d also be pulled into the cover up…which I think at this point they want no part of.
Hokkoda, I doubt the state senate has the authority to remove a county’s BOS and appoint a new board. It could be in their state constitution, in which case, they could. I have just never heard of such a thing happening.
Well, we haven’t seen a state senate with a spine before either, so there’s that.
Someone already posted the AZ statute that gives the power to the AZ Senate- they are the ones who put the BOS in place and they have the power to remove it. State elections are governed by the state, not the county. The state establishes the counties- the state has supreme authority within that state. Bottom line.
THAT is not what was said….the State’s legislatures, as the ruling authority in the state under their charter from the US, delegate authority to the counties (parishes in LA) to organize and administer those divisions of the population under THEIR authority….as such they can require compliance to state requests/needs but this does NOT include the state reorganizing the county to its own vision or preference
Removing county officials is not reorganizing the county to its own vision or preference. The AZ Senate already has enough evidence of misfeasance and malfeasance to remove the BoS (on what planet can a county refuse to turn over election data that the AZ State Legislature effectively owns?) They should do so, appoint a temporary BoS, and hold an election in the fall.
This is why we always lose.
If there is nothing to be afraid of or hide, and everything is okey dokey, then why are you resisting the audit at every turn?
Guilty is, as guilty does.
The big question is, will we get a Judge who believes in the Constitution, or another corrupt hack?
Because in the end, this is going to end up in front of one. The demoncrats will see to that.
What I have learned since Trump came on the scene, Judges are every bit as crooked as rigged casino slot machines.
I am really disappointed in the true color of PDJT’s 3 SCOTUS picks
Based on the little bit of their letter, they’re not expecting much external help. This is basically “We’re not giving you that data, not those passwords, because they implicate us directly in the election fraud. And, it would provide a roadmap for WI, GA, PA, VA, MI, MN, NC, and other states to follow. Because we were smart enough to defraud voters, but not smart enough to do it differently in each state.”
Dr. Kelli Ward has earned the right to have any job she wants in the next Trump administration.
She is a rockstar.
And speaking of rockstars – I think that Gaetz and MTG are doing a rally in Arizona this week. Maybe they can fire up the voters to get up in the grill of these election people.
“…while the man on the street…yearns for peace, the government is Communist. And those who run it are Communists, and that means we and they view such issues as freedom and human rights very differently.
We must keep up our guard, but we must also continue to work together to lessen and eliminate tension and mistrust…as long as we make it clear that we will continue to act in a certain way as long as they continue to act in a helpful manner. If and when they don’t, at first pull your punches. If they persist, pull the plug. It’s still trust but verify. It’s still play, but cut the cards. It’s still watch closely.
And don’t be afraid to see what you see.”

It’s not just us treepers that know the election was stolen. I bet some people polled were not comfortable saying they think the election was not on the up and up either. The real % is probably higher than this.
But multiple audits can’t be done at the same time because of dominoes and REASONS!
They are terrified
They should be. They thought they would get away with it. They thought they would even be rewarded for their service to the new world order. They thought people would just accept this and move on the way they have always done. But here’s the thing:
We all have a “thing” that we can’t forgive and forget. There’s always going to be this one facet or aspect of our lives which we can not simply forget and move on without addressing. For me, that happened LONG ago before people really started to notice. When I saw that superbowl show where Beyonce performed with a bunch of “black panthers.” I never cared too much about football at the time but my son was watching. I could not get beyond the horrific political message. I knew then and there this was going to get worse and would not go away. But my son was like “this is just a show…”
How long ago was that? Quite some time ago. But with each event comes another betrayal of the USA we all love. And each event seeks to remove the country one piece at a time. They hope to boil the frog but the growing number of people continue to reach that “too far” moment.
They should be terrified. They know what they did and so do we.
.
Go back even further in Super Bowl half-time history:
Janet Jackson’s ‘performance’ that was so obviously staged so as to leave no doubt how much the media lies to us . . .
It would seem that this is not an election and Cyber Ninjas know the practices and procedures to find and expose the criminal fraud.
These guys are snakes I say! They all know the vote/ballot fraud did indeed take place & don’t want that to get out there.
The Big Lie occurred on January 20.
“It’s time to end this. For the good of the Senate, for the good of the country and for the good of the blah blah blah”
They’re hiding behind the flag.
“Patriotism having become one of our topicks, Johnson suddenly uttered, in a strong determined tone, an apophthegm, at which many will start: ‘Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.’ But let it be considered, that he did not mean a real and generous love of our country, but that pretended patriotism which so many, in all ages and countries, have made a cloak for self-interest.”–Boswell’s Life of Johnson.
Q: What did your teacher say to stop cheating?
A: “Show your work.” Demonstrate how you reached your conclusion.
Quit telling us how patriotic you. How fair you are. How great you are.
SHOW. YOUR. WORK.
NOW.
YES!
Sloppy Theives BOS, do we think they’ll rat out Dominion to save their criminal necks? Opening a criminal case into Dominion may help escalate a fight nationwide. How many locations turned the power to run the election over to Dominion? Dominion running the election and not the BOS? These machines/software have to go.
As a response, the senators should leave a dozen coils of rope outside the BOS’s doors with a note saying,
“It is time to end this now, for the good of the senate, country and democratic institutions.”
Tomorrow’s Senate meeting should be interesting. I hope the supervisors end up getting hauled in (probably won’t be tomorrow but maybe subpoenas or orders to compel will come out), and then have to each plead the 5th when asked questions. You can tell an election was the cleanest and most honest when everyone involved with running it has to plead the 5th!
Hey, in the face of the efforts to stop the audit, instead let’s fund it! https://fundtheaudit.com/
You can “plead the fifth” concerning your own conduct, but when you are a state official being quizzed about how you conducted state business, to “plead the fifth” is to declare that you know that you did commit a crime. The Senate is very-carefully asking “objective, procedural questions” about how “the procedure” was actually carried out. Anyone who invokes the fifth amendment instead of providing an “objective, procedural answer” is damning himself.
I heard they are not showing up today. This is coming down to who is going to sway Public Opinion and by the BOS not allowing the public in at the hearing yesterday and only the Fake News allowed in, they are losing the war with the Public. They can run, but they cannot hide from the Public anymore. So if this audit continues and they come out with the results and the fraud is found to be HUGE, how does the BOS defend their position then? This is going to getvery interesting in deed.
These elected bodies better get a handle on this insubordination, or pretty soon even the law abiding will start telling them to piss off when summoned.
Their crystal palace will shatter when their illusion of power is exposed.
Even Mickey Mouse will give them the high, hard one. 😉
The BOS is doing exactly the wrong thing. People in my neighborhood are waking up and getting angrier by the day. They are making themselves a lightening rod for a great deal of pent up frustration.
Let’s get the recall petitions going again. They were a lot quieter when they felt they were going to be recalled. More and more are waking up to what rats they are.
Malfeasance.
Also send AZ Senate President Karen Fann a thank you card or email… she is resolved to get to the bottom of this. She is standing strong. She has been a bit surprised by their reactions as most are them are friends in committees. Send up prayers as well…
What makes you think the post office is delivering her mail? My post office employees are all Orange Man Bad. They have been weaponized!
Send an email if that works for you… does the post man know if it is an angry letter or a thank you letter???
They are agents of government and have no legal right to to claim protections hiding behind the fifth Amendment.
