And now this,the Arizona audit sanctioned by the GQP is getting flushed down the toilet, or so it seems. Excuses or giving up. I think GQP is getting cold feet.

Survey thousands of voters at their homes? Sounds like desperation and intimidation.

Gone are the days of secret ballots........


Also how can this country go forth with half disbelieving any and all votes not for them, the other half thinking the first is a cult hell bent on a hostile take over.......

Oh dear. It's looking like the Cyber Ninja troglodytes have dug a dry well in Maricopa county, Arizona.

Better luck next time a-holes.

'AP: Few AZ voter fraud cases, discrediting Trump’s claims'

"PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona county election officials have identified fewer than 200 cases of potential voter fraud out of more than 3 million ballots cast in last year’s presidential election, further discrediting former President Donald Trump’s claims of a stolen election as his allies continue a disputed ballot review in the state’s most populous county.

An Associated Press investigation found 182 cases where problems were clear enough that officials referred them to investigators for further review. So far, only four cases have led to charges, including those identified in a separate state investigation. No one has been convicted. No person’s vote was counted twice.

While it’s possible more cases could emerge, the numbers illustrate the implausibility of Trump’s claims that fraud and irregularities in Arizona cost him the state’s electorate votes. In final, certified and audited results, Biden won 10,400 more votes than Trump out of 3.4 million cast." AP

'FACT FOCUS: A false narrative of 74K extra votes in Arizona'

"Cyber Ninjas, the cybersecurity consulting firm hired by Arizona Senate Republicans to oversee a partisan review of the 2020 election, on Thursday pushed a false narrative that Maricopa County received thousands of mail-in ballots that had no record of being sent out to voters.

The firm’s CEO Doug Logan used the baseless claim to urge legislators to subpoena more records and canvass voters at home, grasping for evidence of fraud even as a hand count of a statistical sample of ballots and two post-election audits showed no proof of wrongdoing in Maricopa County’s election.

The false claim has reverberated online in the day since Logan’s comments, parroted by lawmakers and Republican commentators including Arizona Republican Party Chair Kelli Ward, Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert and former President Donald Trump." AP

I hope the voters in Arizona are paying attention to this flim flam operation being committed against them and that they vote accordingly. Throw the bums out Arizona, you deserve better.

And Dominion, the company that GQP loves to hate and are warding off multiple lawsuits will now get an order for additional machines to the tune of $3 Million. This is win win but not for the GQP/GOP cabal.

‘The stuff of which violent insurrections are made:’ Federal judge punishes Colorado lawyers for 2020 election lawsuit

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...942_story.html

Quote:
A federal judge in Colorado has punished two lawyers who filed a lawsuit challenging the 2020 election late last year, finding that the case was “frivolous,” “not warranted by existing law” and filed “in bad faith.”

In a scathing 68-page opinion, Magistrate Judge N. Reid Neureiter found that the lawyers made little effort to corroborate information they had included in the suit, which argued there had been a vast national conspiracy to steal the election from former president Donald Trump.

He particularly called out the duo, Gary D. Fielder and Ernest John Walker, for quoting Trump in their legal filing, which cited a presidential tweet that claimed without evidence that voting machines manufactured by the company Dominion Voting Systems had “deleted 2.7 million Trump votes nationwide.” Neureiter called that allegation “highly disputed and inflammatory” and said the lawyers made no efforts to verify it.

Calling the suit “one enormous conspiracy theory,” Neureiter ordered that the duo must pay the legal fees of all the individuals and companies they had sued — 18 separate entities in all — as a way to deter future similar cases.
Wonder where the idiot OP is now? In the ICU with COVID? Dumbass.
