Arizona voting data taken to so-called 'lab' in remote Montana

As I say, I wouldn't believe them no matter what they say.

This has been a farce all along.


Agreed. "Chain of Custody" best practices has not been followed.
 
They are examining ballots for indications that they could be forgeries. Wouldn't that be a good thing to check? If nothing else, they can definitively state 'the paper used for ballots was not consistent with paper imported from China' and put the theory to bed. What's wrong with that?

They don't do this by 'sniffing' the ballots.

What they're doing is undermining faith in U.S. election integrity in exchange for conning those who have rejected all but RWE information sources, out of their money. They are successfully raising more funds than they are expending... that's it, "that's all, volks!"

You're in a sealed bubble, AFA information non-cultists are exposed to. All of this is a continuation of the Cons of the confidence men you've given yourself over to. Normal people notice that "the con" always is executed in similar fashion, "Trump University, "Build that Wall", "Stop the Steal"!

You're convinced cyber ninjas' "audit" is different. You're willing to carry out Putin's playbook by supporting this grifter nonsense.

You do know the definition of "evidence", right? It's not the same as innuendo.
Evidence is not proof. Seems you are the one who is confused.

Actually, you are embracing the conspiracy theories here, and throwing in a lot of other unrelated items to try to deflect. Those on the fringe left who are embracing "there was nothing wrong! It was perfect! Don't check anything!" are just as nutty as some of the fringe items on the other side. Conducting an audit is a good thing - it helps support confidence in the election process, and is an important part of a process to ensure the process is transparent and secure for the next election

Michigan Republicans Call Mike Lindell Election Claims Beyond 'Reasonable Credulity'
June 24, 2021
A report by a Republican-led committee in the Michigan Senate dismissed baseless conspiracy theories about the 2020 election promoted by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, saying the conservative businessman's claims were beyond "reasonable credulity."

April Fool's Day, 2021
" took less than an hour to find the multitude of tweets that the lead auditor, a Florida man named Doug Logan, had sent from a Twitter account that he deleted sometime in January. He frequently interacted with Big Lie hucksters of the highest order, including Sidney Powell, L. Lin Wood and Ron Watkins — a man so closely tied to QAnon and the websites that pushed the dangerous theory that many experts believe he likely was behind the whole thing. He repeatedly posted his own thoughts on the election being stolen and reposted others who asserted the same things.

He’ll now be paid $150,000 to “audit” an election he’s already concluded was stolen as part of a vast conspiracy. Senate Republicans are inviting this man, and what appears to be a cadre of like-minded fraudsters and liars, to spend 60 days with our ballots and voting machines so they can prove their case.

What will happen is a repeat of what this whole exercise in election conspiracies has been about: They will inevitably find something that is perfectly normal in election procedures, and then either misunderstand or misrepresent it so that it backs up the story they’ve told themselves about how Trump didn’t really lose. It will be done purely in bad faith and it will serve to undermine elections in Arizona and nationwide, hastening our nation’s fall into authoritarianism.

I hope every single Senate Republican can sleep at night knowing what they are doing. "

..and just crap all over your own reputation as you post empty criticism of those holding up your nonsense for
all readers to consider!

As I said. The CT position that there were no issues is just as nutty as some from people like Sydney Powell. We had a pandemic that resulted in a LOT of changes and moving pieces in this election. It would be irresponsible to not take a look at the process, identify where there were issues, and make improvements for the next one. That includes taking steps to reassure the public that any accusations have been reviewed and were unfounded. Why would the left be so resistant to that?
 
This is actually a very interesting site - thanks for posting. I particularly was interested in the comments and seeing how the author responded. Seems to have some genuine interest in getting to the truth. Some of the commenters posted links to information refuting the author and supporting Frank's work.

I will dig into this more.
Thanks, looking forward to more info.

Because it isn't "the public' who need reassurance. The attack on the integrity of election results is obvious, corrupt, partisan, relentless, and Trump launched it well before the 2016 election and has never stopped!

If Trump and all those around him had any past history of spraying lemonade instead of urine, maybe your request would be reasonable, There is no predicate for your suspicions and the "burden" you describe to satisfy the concerns of those similarly troubled as you, aside from Trump and his team of liars to justify your concerns and certainly none to further inquire into certified election results. When there is any actual predicate, author a new thread linking the facts that demand further investigation.

It's spelled, "Sidney". Post a link to the background of who you consider the most credible and influential person who agrees with you.

Quoting you to lessen the odds anyone will miss seeing how deep in it you are.
lol. You are trying very hard to deflect. Why is that?

To answer your question, we can start with Joe Biden, who recently released a plan to add $80 billion to the IRS to beef up their audit process for tax records. Nancy Pelosi - the "for the people act" "encourages risk limiting audits".

Seriously - audits are a part of life. Every reputable business conducts them. Why would we not conduct a review of such an important process?
 
So, if they find that the vote in that county was bogus, that’s proof to you that they are frauds? Who’s the cultist now?

Maricopa County had fair and honest election.
Our GOP Governor signed a bill into law back in March of 2019 expanding the voter ID law, which was in effect within this state for the 2020 election. Link
The Republicans won five of the six countywide seats within this county. The one Democrat who won countywide (Sheriff Penzone) received about 55,000 more votes than President Biden within this county. Dem Senator Kelly received 23,622 more votes than President Biden within this county.

Question - why not get behind the audit? If Biden is legit, it would be in your interest to prove it to the 50% plus of the country that questions it.

Previous real audits confirmed that President Biden's win within Maricopa County was legit. The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors did the right thing for refusing to let the conspiracy theorists and grifters hired by Fann use their facility to perform their bogus audit.

No matter how much you beg, none of us want to move to Canada….

Actually there wouldn't be any jobs for an additional 330,000,000 people.

However, if you prefer to have an electoral system that is characterized by blatant gerrymandering and not quite so blatant manipulation of the voters lists and slightly less blatant diddling with the mechanics of conducting the actual vote - all in order to try to ensure that "The Right Party" ALWAYS wins rather than changing the way that elections are conducted so as to ensure that the general populace has confidence that they are actually "free, fair, open, and honest elections" - fill your boots.
 
In theory, that's done here. The reality is though that anyone invested enough in society to facilitate elections probably has some bias.

Absolutely agree that we need clear policies and procedures, with layers of transparency and accountability. That's what made many of the actions in the 2020 elections to limit (or prevent) meaningful observation so troubling. Secondarily, many of the changes to the rules 'on the fly' shouldn't have happened. And third - it absolutely makes sense that the legislatures are taking time now to clarify those procedures so we have a clear process going into 2022 and beyond.

Ideally, I think all the ballot counting should be like vegas - one person 'neutral' counting, and observers from both sides watching the process. That way people are limited in their ability to complain afterwards.

I'm not sure what you mean by "meaningful observation". As far as I know it does NOT include allowing "observers" to wander freely around the voting booths and actually watch the way that people vote - which is what "The Conservatives" appear to want.

Your last paragraph makes eminent sense (that's the way they do it in Canada). The observers MAY "challenge" any ballot and that ballot is set aside for review by others IMMEDIATELY. There is NEVER any discussion between the observer(s) and the counter(s) over WHY a ballot is "challenged" - nor, when the ballot is reviewed, is the reason for its challenge given to the reviewer(s).
 
Oh brother!...:rolleyes: People are free to give their money to whomever they wish... Or, would you like to control that too?
oh, i love when dumbasses give their money to conmen.
 
God. I knew there were a ton of dumbasses and confederates in our country.

I didn't think they'd willingly marry themselves to our most famous yankee con man and crook (so he could make off with more of their $$$$).
