Arizona Republicans' desperate crusade to find nonexistent voter fraud

ARIZONA SENATE President Karen Fann (R) says she is determined to “ensure the integrity of the vote” in her state. Which is supposedly why, five months after Election Day, following multiple credible audits that found no hint of substantial fraud, she insists that the state Senate must conduct yet another audit, re-scanning and hand-counting every ballot cast in Phoenix’s Maricopa County, as well as digging into electronic election systems.

This would be a big job for even the most experienced election official or voting company, never mind state legislators. So Ms. Fann and her Senate colleagues tapped Cyber Ninjas, a little-known Florida cybersecurity firm that boasts that it provides “general consulting” and “ethical hacking” services, to lead the audit. Arizona journalists quickly discovered one possible reason for this puzzling choice: Cyber Ninjas founder Doug Logan appears to have pushed pro-Trump election conspiracy theories on a Twitter account he apparently deleted in January.

I will be more politically active because of all of this nonsense and revisionist history.

Personally, I'm looking forward to their crestfallen faces when they announce that the audit found more votes for Biden.

How do I know Paul Gosar was elected due to massive voter fraud? Voter Fraud only happened in states where Biden or the Democrat won?

pay increase they put on the ballot.

If elected, I will be the only member of the AZ House, if it is on the ballot, asking people to vote AGAINST it. I will even vote against my own pay raise if elected.
