Arizona election official: Unchecked Cyber Ninjas use alarming 'audit' rules to count votes
We follow sensible rules that inspire confidence in fairness and accuracy. We should be skeptical of results from the Cyber Ninjas, who are unchecked.
Stephen Richer - Opinion contributor

In the months since Arizona Senate President Karen Fann launched her audit of the 2020 election, it has become clear there are different rules for different auditors.

There are rules that Maricopa County election administrators must follow, and there are far less demanding rules for the Cyber Ninjas conducting Fann’s audit. Here are examples:

How ballot counters are selected

Maricopa County: After every election, Maricopa County is required by law to oversee a hand-count audit of a statistically significant number of votes. For the November 2020 election, the hand-count of 47,000 votes matched the machine count 100% – the machines clearly worked. The volunteers who do the hand count are selected by the political parties, not the county. The volunteers work in groups of three, and all of the groups are required by law to be bipartisan.

Cyber Ninjas: The Cyber Ninjas have recruited their hand-counters almost exclusively from the Republican Party. The Cyber Ninjas counting teams are not bipartisan.

How candidates participate

Maricopa County: Throughout the election, candidates are prohibited from entering the tabulation room. Candidates cannot participate in the county’s hand-count.

Cyber Ninjas: The Cyber Ninjas counting teams included one former Republican state legislator who ran on the very ballots being audited. The Ninjas staff also includes members of former President Donald Trump’s campaign team, and tours of the auditing area are regularly given to Republican elected officials.

How races are examined

Maricopa County: For the county’s hand-count audit, the examined races selected are chosen randomly.

Cyber Ninjas: The Cyber Ninjas are only counting two races: the presidential and the U.S. Senate – both races in which the Democratic challenger beat the Republican incumbent.

What qualifies auditors to participate

Maricopa County: All county election officers must attend a two-week educational program and pass a written test. Many county managers also obtain CERA (Certified Elections Registration Administrator) certification by completing months of additional professional education with the Elections Center’s National Association of Election Officials. Several of the county’s employees have more than 20 years of election experience.

Cyber Ninjas: Prior to Fann’s audit, the Cyber Ninjas had never before conducted any type of election audit. The Ninjas’ only subcontractor with any election audit experience – a group called Wake TSI – quit midway through Fann’s audit, and had only conducted one previous audit of 1,000 ballots.

What drives the audit's methodology

Maricopa County: For its hand count and other operations, Maricopa County uses methodologies derived from state law and designed by experienced, qualified, educated experts who are widely recognized by the elections community.

Cyber Ninjas: Fann’s audit has relied on the ideas of Jovan Pulitzer. Pulitzer is a failed inventor who has changed his legal name multiple times and has spent years of his life searching for the Ark of the Covenant and for a magical sword in Nova Scotia. His marquee invention – the CueCat – was deemed by Time Magazine as one of “The 50 Worst Inventions” in the world. Nonetheless, because of Pulitzer’s theories, Fann’s audit has spent weeks looking for mysterious folds and bamboo fibers in ballots to see if the ballots fraudulently came from China (the county’s ballots are printed in Arizona and never leave the state).

How the audit is funded

Maricopa County: The state Legislature recently passed a law that bans all private funding of elections. Previously, any private funds received by the county were publicly announced, subject to public comment, voted on by the county’s supervisors, and the dollar amounts were publicly disclosed. Private funding made up approximately 8% of the county’s 2020 elections budget. County officials must disclose any direct funds received and are subject to bribery laws.

Cyber Ninjas: Fann’s audit will likely cost more than $2 million, but the total amount has not been disclosed. Of that sum, $150,000 comes from the state Senate. The rest is being raised from private donors. Most of the donors are anonymous, but the donor list is known to include Lin Wood and Sidney Powell, two conspiracy theorists who previously served as legal counsel for President Trump’s election efforts.

How much access the media is given

Maricopa County: During the election, Maricopa County gives the same open access to all credentialed members of the media. The county complies with all lawful public records requests.

Cyber Ninjas: The Cyber Ninjas have given the pro-Trump outfit One America News Network special, exclusive access throughout the entirety of Fann’s audit, while other members of the media have been relegated to the distant bleachers at the coliseum. The Cyber Ninjas have stated that they do not have to comply with public records requests.

How results are disclosed

Maricopa County: In a statewide election, Arizona law prohibits the release of results prior to 8 p.m. on Election Day.

Cyber Ninjas: Before completing their work in Arizona, several of the key players of Fann’s audit, including Logan, appeared in a conspiracy theory movie titled “Deep Rig,” which supposedly confirms that the 2020 election had been stolen – the very thing Fann’s audit is supposed to be still investigating. The film’s director previously made a movie about extraterrestrial involvement in the Sept. 11 attacks.

How quickly results must be tabulated

Maricopa County: In a general election, Maricopa County must be done with the tabulation of all ballots and the hand-count audit within 20 days of Election Day, per state law.

Cyber Ninjas: The county had all ballots and tabulation equipment loaded and ready for delivery to Senator Fann on March 2. The Cyber Ninjas originally announced that they would be done with the ballots on May 14. Then they moved their deadline to June 30. The work is still ongoing.

The rules for Maricopa County are meant to ensure expert, nonpartisan administration of the county’s election. They are good rules. They promote confidence in the process.

The Cyber Ninjas are unchecked by sensible rules that promote accuracy and fairness. This is extremely troubling. Whatever the Ninjas ultimately produce should be greeted with extreme skepticism.

PA would really need to out do the cyber ninjas’ production of “Auditnado” for me to be impressed.

None of this hiring of a real forensics audit teams with experience, as that would not be worthy of anyone’s attention.

If PA came up with a SciFi channel shit show worthy of the title “Auditnado 2 - the Other One,” only then would I concede being shocked.

At some point, you are going to have to figure out how to teach your offspring morals, and critical thinking.

You are not every good at either, tbh.

Be kind, be fair, be honest is what I came up with at guiding principles for evaluating ethics.

You have demonstrated a lack of understanding of logical fallacies repeatedly here, that appears due to some sort of learning/reading disability. You may want to seek some help with that, as many reading disabilities can be overcome with guidance.

Your sidestepping of questions, and mean-spiritedness continually demonstrates a lack of honesty and kindness.

FWTW.

Your side threatened to impeach him before he ever got sworn. Your side rampaged the country for 4 years; burning, looting, killing, robbing in the name of The Resistance.

Republicans love to claim bodies can't be "independent" unless they're full of people who are devoid of opinion. That's the fallacy. This is why they're the ones who think Mexican judges can't fairly rule on matters of immigration, for example. These same idiots live to also claim to be all about freedom of thought.

Any FBI agent, or anyone else, with half a brain was concerned about Donald Trump being president. You'd have to be a fucking idiot to think that situation was normal and risk-free. That doesn't make you a saboteur or unqualified for a role in investigations.

Simply because he was not on the list, did not have a place in the queue, broke Clinton's ass after Hussein had broke it 8 years prior and had promised Hillary that the next 8 years would be hers and hers alone, Adam. So, you "resisted" on morning after that first Tuesday, November of '16, and you never stopped.

I don't consider any of them independent because, unlike you, I don't use a double standard. They are all corrupt. They just have different reasons and loyalties.

[ElNono]

You can't fake expertise though. Regardless if you think somebody has an agenda or not, you have to at least accept they put in the work to have the authority to make the claims they make.

In a lot of ways that's what this boils down to, these people have no expertise, thus no authority to make any proclamations about election integrity.

This is also very similar to what happened to the Kraken... they claimed X or Y was a security expert and turned out to be Taco Bell employees, thus it's an insta-fail in the credibility department, if a judge even allows to take their testimony seriously at all.

The retards are nowhere near 50%. Not everyone that voted for Trump is a derp-type retard. Probably 20%-30%, and that's too much as it is. All those social media companies have never been better, tbh... they thrive in controversy, and the retards can't quit them.

Ultimately, none of those 20%-30% people really matter, tbh, they're useless and living a fantasy, so whether you're doing anything serious or not is immaterial. They're like 5 years olds, much like Dear Leader and they're not serious to begin with, you can't ask them to discern anything.

New Report Provides Further Proof That Arizona Audit Is ‘A Hoax’

"Joe Biden was never behind Donald Trump during the entire election period in Maricopa County,"

of the "74,822 disaffected Republican supportive voters"—

Arizonans who voted for most of the Republicans on the ballots but not for Trump (https://www.nationalmemo.com/arizona-forensic-audit-2653074322) in Maricopa County (greater Phoenix) and Pima County (greater Tucson)—

"[t]he most highly disaffected of those, 48,577 (65%) voted for Biden;

the remaining 26,245 (35%) voted for candidates who could not win,

e.g., the Libertarian candidate (19,873), or by over-voting [voting for more than one presidential candidate] (2,009), or voting for no one (4,363)," the report (https://independentmediainstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Lessons-from-Maricopa-County-Slow-Data-Versus-Fast-Lies-Updated.pdf) said

"To put the 48,577 disaffected Republican voters who voted for Biden in perspective,

they represent 4.6 times the statewide margin of Trump's 10,457 vote loss to Biden," :lol

"we gave them everything competent auditors would need".

Eyup.

As an auditor, I can absolutely speak to that. From everything I have read about the details about how this is being run, it is a shit-show of epic proportions.

They will conclude what they wanted to conclude, and then their findings will be shredded by the first journalist or competent person who knows the process.

That won't matter. Trumplandia will parade this turd around holding up to their faces like it is a wonderful gold nugget and cuddling it. You can tell them they just rubbed a turd all over themselves and they will not believe it.

possible endgame: wrecking US elections in order to seize power for the GOP


Republican efforts questioning the outcome of the 2020 presidential race have led to voting system breaches that election security experts say pose a heightened risk to future elections.


Copies of the Dominion Voting Systems software used to manage elections — from designing ballots to configuring voting machines and tallying results — were distributed at an event this month in South Dakota organized by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, an ally of former President Donald Trump who has made unsubstantiated claims about last year’s election.


“It’s a game-changer in that the environment we have talked about existing now is a reality,” said Matt Masterson, a former top election security official in the Trump administration. “We told election officials, essentially, that you should assume this information is already out there. Now we know it is, and we don’t know what they are going to do with it.”


The software copies came from voting equipment in Mesa County, Colorado, and Antrim County, Michigan, where Trump allies had sue unsuccessfully challenging the results from last fall.
https://apnews.com/article/technology-software-election-2020-1341028212960b9b4ed713620d764629

[Winehole23]

Election security pioneer Harri Hursti was at the South Dakota event and said he and other researchers in attendance were provided three separate copies of election management systems that run on the Dominion software. The data indicated they were from Antrim and Mesa counties. While it’s not clear how the copies came to be released at the event, they were posted online and made available for public download.


The release gives hackers a “practice environment” to probe for vulnerabilities they could exploit and a road map to avoid defenses, Hursti said. All the hackers would need is physical access to the systems because they are not supposed to be connected to the internet.


“The door is now wide open,” Hursti said. “The only question is, how do you sneak in the door?”
A Dominion representative declined comment, citing an investigation.


U.S. election technology is dominated by just three vendors comprising 90% of the market, meaning election officials cannot easily swap out their existing technology. Release of the software copies essentially provides a blueprint for those trying to interfere with how elections are run. They could sabotage the system, alter the ballot design or even try to change results, said election technology expert Kevin Skoglund.


“This disclosure increases both the likelihood that something happens and the impact of what would happen if it does,” he said.

Security through obscurity is basically no security at all. Will there be hacks with this information becoming available? Possibly. But ultimately it leads to a much more secure environment.

forecast: a gale of Republican tears


The team of Arizona Republican state senators, legislative staff, and advisers finalizing the Cyber Ninjas' report on the 2020 presidential election in Maricopa County is preparing to say that Joe Biden legitimately won the election, according to the largest funder of the Senate's mostly privatized election review, former Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne (https://www.motherjones.com/mojo-wire/2021/08/patrick-byrne-dominion-defamation/).


"The way some of these political RINOs [Republicans In Name Only] are doing this is they're trying to argue that the [election] report should only be allowed to go and address the original construct of the report, the original assignment of the audit, and leave out other things that have been found," Byrne told (https://palbulletin.com/2021/08/30/creativedestructionmedia-com-breaking-patrick-byrne-az-gop-politicians-attempting-to-manipulate-audit-results-video/) Creative Destruction Media's L. Todd Wood.


"The political class is going to try to come in and water this down," Byrne said. "The Republican political class, the RINOs, the nobodies… They are going to try to water this down. I am sure they all have been promised federal judgeships or sacks of cash under a streetlight if they can get this killed at this late date or watered down. And I think the public of Arizona should go ballistic."



Sources in Arizona have said that the state Senate review team was spooked by the possible losses (https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mied.350905/gov.uscourts.mied.350905.172.0_3.pdf) of law licenses looming over Trump's attorneys, as well as stern warnings (https://www.democracydocket.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/doj-letter-to-fann-5-5-21.pdf) from the U.S. Department of Justice for possibly using investigative methods that could violate voter intimidation laws. As a result, they have been editing the report drafted by the Senate's lead contractor, Cyber Ninjas, and excising claims and narratives that are speculative rather than factual. This has delayed the report's release until the week of September 20, sources indicated.https://www.nationalmemo.com/arizona-audit-results

Cyber Ninjas' hand count found even more votes for Joe Biden



A monthslong hand recount of Maricopa County’s 2020 vote confirmed that President Joe Biden won and the election was not “stolen” from former President Donald Trump, according to early versions of a report prepared for the Arizona Senate.


The three-volume report by the Cyber Ninjas, the Senate’s lead contractor, includes results that show Trump lost by a wider margin than the county’s official election results. The data in the report also confirms that U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly won in the county.


The official results are set to be presented to the Senate at 1 p.m. Friday. Several versions of the draft report, titled “Maricopa County Forensic Audit” by Cyber Ninjas, circulated prematurely on Wednesday and Thursday. Multiple versions were obtained by The Arizona Republic.

As Sargent points out, Arizona elections experts speaking to the New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/24/us/arizona-election-review-trump-biden.html) said

the claim of serious problems with the vote counting are nonsense.

In addition, the report declared its own finding that Biden won as inconclusive because the county's election's officials didn't "cooperate," and thus were "actively interfering" with the audit and preventing it from being "complete."

Furthermore, the report recommends reforms which would make it easier to purge voters from the rolls and

less likely for people to send mail ballots

-- reforms that Republicans could seize on to restrict voting in the future.

"So we can see what's really happening here," Sargent writes. "Yes, the audit isn't declaring outright that the election's outcome was indeed fraudulent.

But it is declaring

there are still many reasons to doubt that outcome,

that elections officials who actually operated in good faith are covering this up,

and that the right response is more voting restrictions."

"Truth is truth, numbers are numbers," Fann said at a Senate hearing on the review, which found only small variations, yielding 99 additional votes for Biden and 261 fewer votes for Trump. "Those numbers were close, within a few hundred."

Arizona Republican demands a new audit after the Cyber Ninjas audit crashed and burned

Arizona GOP chairwoman Kelli Ward had a different conclusion.

On Friday, she called for a do-over of the whole thing.

Amazing report from Dr. Shiva. Many questions for Maricopa County as well as exposure of incompetence & possible ma…

"Dr. Shiva" is a reference to

Shiva Ayyadurai (https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/elections/2021/09/03/shiva-ayyadurai-hired-ballot-review-maricopa-county-election-audit/5697839001/), an election conspiracist and anti-vaccine truther who has claimed he was the inventor of email

and that Dr. Anthony Fauci is a "Deep State" agent.

He was hired by the Arizona State Senate to take part in the audit.

of course the Cyber Ninjas lie about and misrepresent their own findings, because what were they for in the first place?

LOGAN: “23,344 people voted when they should no longer have access, or would not normally have access” to voting in Maricopa County because they have moved.


THE FACTS: No, that’s not what happened. Logan reviewed the names of voters against a commercial database of addresses, not a database of voters. He found that 23,344 reported moving before ballots went out in October. While the review suggests something improper, election officials note that voters such as college students, those who own vacation homes and military members, can move to temporary locations while still legally voting at the address where they are registered.

“A competent reviewer of an election would not make a claim like that,” said Trey Grayson, a former Republican secretary of state in Kentucky.

[Winehole23]

LOGAN: There were 9,041 mail-in voters who “were mailed one ballot but somehow two ballots were received, which I do not know how you would have one ballot sent and two received.”


THE FACTS: This isn’t unusual, and it’s not a sign of wrongdoing. The file Logan consulted, known as EV33, shows two returned ballot entries whenever a voter’s mail-in ballot has a signature discrepancy that gets fixed.


When a voter mails in a ballot with a blank or mismatched signature, election officials contact the voter. If the discrepancy is resolved, they enter a second record in the EV33 file, election officials said.


“The appropriate conclusion to draw from this finding is that the early voting team was performing their statutory-required responsibility by reviewing signatures on all returned mail-in ballots,” Maricopa County tweeted (https://twitter.com/maricopacounty/status/1441470651236171776?s=20) in response to Logan’s claim.

Broke a contract with the Arizona Senate.

Their word's no good.


Karen Fann, the Republican leader of the Arizona state Senate, has said that Cyber Ninjas, the private company commissioned to conduct an audit of Maricopa County's election results, is now in "breach of contract" with the state for not providing audit-related documentationhttps://www.newsweek.com/gop-arizona-senate-president-says-cyber-ninjas-breach-contract-following-audit-1643311

Arizona investigators caught admitting they don't believe Trump's 'big lie' — and don't know how elections work (https://www.rawstory.com/arizona-election-audit-2655761237/)

the agents were caught on tape admitting they don't really believe the 2020 election was stolen — and saying they lack basic knowledge about how the state's voting systems work.

"By now, just about everyone normal knows that the continued audits and investigations into the 2020 election are pure political theater in service of pushing the big lie about fraud, and now there is new exclusive audio that shows even the investigators themselves know that they're engaging in a sham,"


"Is your boss that desperate in his primary that he's going to push this bulls*t narrative about a stolen election?"


ADVERTISEMENT
The agent responded, "Well, nobody's talking about a stolen election at all."



"But then why are you here?" Fontes asked, noting that allegations of widespread fraud have been proven to be false.

The agent responded by saying that he had volunteered to serve as an election integrity investigator — "for some reason I'll never understand" — and explained that the position was new.

We've never worked election stuff and don't really know a lot of the processes."

"You don't know that in Arizona, every vote is on a paper ballot. There's no such thing as a voting machine in Arizona. The fact that you're using that term is really disturbing,"

the audio seemed to reflect "a page out of the authoritarian's playbook, which comes from Alice in Wonderland, which is, verdicts first and evidence afterward."

"Since every Republican candidate in Arizona is disputing the 2020 election, evidence doesn't matter, and that's the problem and that's what's so dangerous in our politics now,"

when you can't have acceptance of facts in a democracy, that's when a democracy votes itself out of existence. It's really frightening."

Cyber Ninja pleads poverty :cry


Logan’s personal financial situation has also been in the news lately. Last week the Sarasota Herald-Tribune (https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/opinion/columns/2021/11/17/sarasota-cyber-ninjas-still-draw-scrutiny/8649143002/) reported that on Jan 25, Logan cleared a 30-year mortgage on his $455,000 house, less than four years after taking out the loan. The report also highlighted that this was the same date that his company’s $100,000 emergency pandemic relief loan was forgiven by the government.https://www.vice.com/en/article/y3vdjk/cyber-ninja-ceo-doug-logan-in-debt

'Anything but impartial':

Arizona election 'auditors' emails

‘reveal a tangle of partisanship, irony and deceit’

In January, a judge imposed a fine of $50,000 each day the public records were not disclosed.

Cyber Ninjas now owes more than $4 million in fines.

One email showed Christina Bobb of One American News Network presenting Cyber Ninjas CEO Doug Logan was a draft non-disclosure agreement to silence journalists.

"Bobb, a right-wing activist and ardent Trump supporter who regularly broadcast misinformation and bogus claims of election fraud, was no mere observer.

She also helped bankroll the election review while reporting on it for the network,"

Bobb "served as a go-between for Giuliani and Arizona Senate President Karen Fann."

There is a Texas based version of these fuckers that got a ton of cash and promised results. They wouldn't even come out with these types of cooked results. Wealthy donor types got burned by them and they were pissed.

The rank and file GOPotard will find worth in this shit but the donor class is done. I will likely shrivel up and go away no matter how shrill Trump gets.

Mojave County's (non-ninja) hand tally experiment is in.


Mohave County recently posted the results of its hand count tabulation experiment.

They counted 850 ballots with an average of 36 races per ballot. (30,600 contests).

They estimated that it would cost the county an additional $1.14 million to hand count races in 2024 as opposed to machine county.

But only if there are no recounts (there were recounts in 2022). If there are recounts, it will cost more.

They had an error rate of 5.4%. The maximum allowable machine error rate for certified equipment is 0.00001%.https://twitter.com/stephen_richer/status/1684682029433303042?s=20
