Arizona’s Recount Has Identified Serious Discrepancies
On a lighter note, Matt Gaetz has arrived to ensure the recounts keep on truckin’
For those of you who may have forgotten, the amount of votes that Republicans are convinced to be tainted is 2.1 million.
an elections expert, Jennifer Morrell,
Morrell, had the privilege recently to be invited by the Arizona secretary of state to observe the unquestionably biased recounting of
those votes that “could no way, no how have been cast for Biden, we’re all Trump people out here, get it?”
Ms. Morrell had this to say about the audit:
The idea of a government handing over control of ballots to an outside group, as the state Senate did when hiring a Florida contractor with no elections experience, was bizarre.
This firm, Cyber Ninjas, insisted that it would recount and examine all 2.1 million ballots cast in the county in the 2020 general election.
So I figured it would be unconventional.
But it was so much worse than that.
In more than a decade working on elections, audits and recounts across the country,
I’ve never seen one this mismanaged
The orange-clad observers were steeped in the art of “there is a conspiracy everywhere, just to look hard enough” and followed Ms. Morrell everywhere.
They also made it their business to report everything they found odd about her like the one time her foot entered by chance into the taped-off “no go” zone.
Several times someone asked to test my pen, to ensure it really had red ink.
Once, they even demanded that I empty my pockets, in which I carried that pen and a pair of reading glasses.
I was allowed to ask only procedural questions of the Cyber Ninjas attorney;
I couldn’t talk to anyone else performing the work.
The atmosphere was tense
the Ninjas, who knew long before the audit commenced that Trump had been cheated out of his rightful re-election victory ...
had evidence that thousands of falsified ballots were flown in from South Korea.
paper used in the US so scales were brought in to weigh paper.
The fourth reason was folding.
The auditors reasoned that only absentee voters would fold their ballots;
an in-person, Election Day voter would take a flat ballot, mark it in the booth and submit it, perfectly pristine.
I almost had to laugh:
In my experience (My comment: Experience is a fool’s paradise to rightwingers),
voters will fold ballots every which way, no matter where they vote or what the ballot instructs them to do.
Chalk it up to privacy concerns or individual quirks —
but no experienced elections official would call that su ious
Nothing can change the certified result — nothing will because no fraud will ever be found.
The only fraud lies with Cyber Ninjas and their over-the-top “scientific” methods.
