51% of the morons in the Republican party believe any lie the right wing media, lying GOP officials, and Criminal Donald tells them. They are just a bunch of sheep who will believe any lie of conspiracy told to them. This scam audit in Arizona was an absolute joke and when it was all said and done President Biden got more votes than was previously recorded. Criminal Donald is a laughing stock and his mental illness continues to spiral out of control.

Arizona ‘audit’ finds Biden won (by more votes) and no evidence of fraud

After months of work and some $6 million spent, a so-called audit that Trump supporters claimed would show that the election had been stolen from the defeated president found that Joe Biden actually won Arizona by more votes than the official tally — and it found no conclusive evidence that the election had been influenced by fraud.

Draft reports from the review that Senate President Karen Fann commissioned of Maricopa County’s election results declared that a hand count of nearly 2.1 million ballots from the November 2020 election found Donald Trump had 261 fewer votes than the county’s official canvass gave him, while Biden had 99 more. All told, Biden gained 360 votes in the Senate “audit” hand count — which was criticized by election experts as fundamentally flawed — giving him a victory of 45,469 votes in Maricopa County.

Official canvasses had Biden winning the county by 45,109 and the state by 10,457 votes.

The “audit” team is scheduled to unveil its findings to the Senate at 1 p.m. on Friday. But three draft reports that began circulating on Thursday show what audit critics have long argued — that the election was conducted fairly and the votes counted accurately.

“This means the tabulation equipment counted the ballots as they were designed to do, and the results reflect the will of the voters. That should be the end of the story. Everything else is just noise,” Jack Sellers, chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, said in a press statement Thursday night.

The audit reports also showed no evidence of fraud or malfeasance that might have changed the election outcome in Arizona.

The reports make a number of claims about ballots that might be problematic for different reasons. But it leaves the issues open-ended and makes no conclusive statements. The findings suggest that the audit team did not investigate those claims more deeply to determine their validity before compiling the reports.

For example, one section claimed that the review found 10,342 “potential voters” who had voted in multiple counties in Arizona, based on voters with identical first and last names, middle initials and birth years. The report said it’s possible for multiple people to share those details, but that the list “should be fully reviewed.”

The report does not state why the audit team did not conduct such a review.

State law permits voters to request that their early ballots be sent to a temporary address.

The draft report also claims that 23,344 early ballots were cast by people who shouldn’t have received them because they moved — a conclusion reached by comparing the names of voters who cast ballots with information from a third-party data vendor. Another section claims 9,041 people returned more ballots than they’d received, though the report acknowledges that there could be legitimate explanations for why the records said that.

The executive summary of the report — which did not mention the results of the hand-recount that took more than 3 months to complete — also concedes that many of the alleged concerns the review found could have been allayed if the county had cooperated with the audit. The county has steadfastly refused to cooperate or participate, to the point of refusing to even answer questions about election policies and procedures. That has presented a problem for the audit team, which has no background in elections work.

“Had Maricopa County chosen to cooperate with the audit, the majority of these obstacles would have easily been overcome. By the County withholding some subpoena items, their unwillingness to answer questions as is normal between auditor and auditee, and in some cases actively interfering with audit research, the County prevented a complete audit,” the summary read.

Sellers said there was a good reason the county refused to cooperate.

“How could we cooperate with an inquiry that was led by people who have no idea how to run any election, let alone one in the second largest voting district in the United States? The Board approved the election plan, we hired and supported our election experts, and they produced a well-run and accurate election in accordance with Arizona law,” he said in his press statement.

It’s unclear whether or how the final reports that audit team leader Doug Logan, CEO of the Florida-based company Cyber Ninjas, will present to the Senate on Friday will be different from the draft reports. Two spokespeople did not respond to inquiries from the Arizona Mirror, nor did Logan, who has almost entirely refused to speak with news media since Fann chose him to lead the audit in March.

Sen. Wendy Rogers, R-Flagstaff, one of the legislature’s most fervent advocates of the audit, claimed on Twitter that she’d spoken with Logan and that he told her the leaked drafts that were circulating Thursday night were only drafts and were partial reports.

“Tomorrow’s hearing will render findings of great consequence,” Rogers tweeted.

If Logan’s findings were in error, it wouldn’t be the first time. He has a documented history of making demonstrably false statements that were disproven by election records he already had in his possession.

During a presentation in July to Fann and Senate Judiciary Chairman Warren Petersen, Logan claimed the audit found 74,000 votes cast by people who had submitted early ballots but whom records did not show had requested them. The votes were actually cast at in-person early voting centers after the deadline to request early ballots by mail, which Logan could have easily found for himself based on the county’s master list of people who voted in the election, which he had.

In a note appended to a section about mail-in ballots being received without any record of them being sent, Logan’s team wrote that the claim was “unintentionally misleading” and was intended only to serve as advocacy for door-to-door canvassing of voters to determine if they really voted.

The results of the hand count, whatever they are, were the result of a process that election experts have long described as flawed and highly error-prone. The audit team, which had no practical experience in elections-related work and often displayed a lack of knowledge about basic election processes and procedures, spun ballots on turntables while workers counted the votes in the races for president and U.S. Senate.

How many dems believe Trump "colluded" with Russia to win the 2016 election after nearly four years of nonstop promotion of that fake story by the media?  How many believe there was a Russian bounty on US soldiers?  How many believe a Capitol police officer was killed by protestors on Jan. 6 after the press falsely reported that he had been hit with a fire extinguisher (and the autopsy was kept secret for months showing that he died of natural causes)?  How many believed Trump made a phone call demanding that Georgia officials "find the fraud"?  Those are all nutty and debunked stories that most Dems continue to believe.

That's because Criminal Donald and his Russian stooge officials did collude with Russia. Senate Intelligence already confirmed it in their report.

Another Biden administration lie comes to light following a self-inflicted debacle.  So it turns out that over 12K Haitians being held in under the bridge in Bidenville have been released into the US. The Biden administration refused to give a number and implied most were being deported while they were being released all over the US.  And 30K more are on the way.   Meanwhile Whispering Joe is trying to distract from his lies and incompetence with another fake story about the border patrol "whipping" immigrants.  Instead of allowing an investigation to determine the facts, Biden, in his capacity as President, has already announced that they will be punished.  Why?  Because it plays into a desired narrative that America is a racist country to deflect attention away from the out of control situation on the border.  A few months from now the patrol border agents will be exonerated but the leftist media will hardly mention it.

When is the last time we've seen Cuban migrants be treated as harshly as migrants from Haiti? The contrast in treatment has been complained about by the Congressional Black Caucus since the 1990s. And it's fair to say they have a point but the reality is the different treatment has more to do with politics than racism.

From what I understand, most Haitian women and children are being allowed to stay and seek asylum while single men are being deported back to Haiti.

It's a really sad and unfortunate situation.

Everyone should be treated equally the under the immigration laws.  That means they should be deported if they come here illegally no matter where they come from whether it is Haiti, Mexico, Cuba, or Sweden absent some legitimate exemption that is recognized by the law.  Simply being poor and getting to America is not a legal basis to come here.  There are laws that govern immigration.  The politicians have decided not to enforce the law for political reasons.

Just 44% of Republicans want Trump as the 2024 nominee. Given his huge built in name recognition and no clear GOP alternatives having emerged, this is devastating for him. It means 56% of republicans are already saying “we know Trump is damaged goods, give us anyone but him.”

Of course they want someone who’s LIKE Trump, but they don’t want Trump. Conservatives always want some new fresh faced windbag without the baggage to tell them the same old convenient right wing lies, and Trump is now on the wrong side of that.
