Here we go again, with another money sucking Arizona election audit

The Great Arizona Hunt for Election Fraud continues as a special master and three – count ‘em, three – IT experts from across the nation gear up to examine Maricopa County’s election equipment.

Yeah, I know. You thought the audit of the 2020 election was over, that it ended in September when the Senate’s own Trump supporting auditors could find no evidence of widespread fraud.

O ye, of far too much faith that, at some point, sanity will sink in.

That the state Senate’s Trump contingent will accept the fact that their guy lost, freeing us poor taxpayers from having to continue shelling out money to chase a conspiracy that doesn’t – and didn’t – exist.

is that there is NO CONSTITUTIONAL MECHANISM to undo the last election.

Biden was certified as the winner, chosen by the Electoral College, and sworn into office.

That cannot be backed up for a do-over. This ain't third grade recess.
