Oh boy! There's trouble in Maricopa County.

Today, I listened to the full Senate Hearing on the Election Audit in Maricopa County. It seems that in many cases, the law was not followed. In particular, the chain of custody was not established for ballots. Grossly inaccurate documentation of storage boxes (lots) of ballots, improper sealing of boxes of ballots, no serial numbers on duplicate ballots, illegal paper used for ballots on demand, improperly aligned ballots, and the list goes on.

Having taken notes on the number of affected ballots across the board, I arrived at a preliminary number of 296,481 ballots that are impacted. This is in a state where the election was decided by just 10,457 votes.

Additionally, the county is caught in a lie about the routers. When the routers were subpoenaed, the County claimed that the routers were used by the police department and healthcare and contained personally identifiable information (PII) that could endanger police officers, exposing social security numbers, etc. Of course, I've always known that routers do not contain PII, so I already knew that was a lie. In one document, the county assures the routers were not used outside of the voting network then in their reply to the subpoena, they claim they were used for other departments (a violation of the law). One or the other is a lie.

It is time for Maricopa County to come clean, stop lying, and stop obstructing. New subpoenas will be forthcoming and I expect indictments to follow.

1 "New subpoenas will be forthcoming and I expect indictments to follow." And I expect pigs to fly.

2 Yeah Bill; don't hold your breath or you'll turn purple.

I disagree with Lyle on that - and a lot of other good thinkers out there who believe this is coming. I don't.

Even a lot of solid, rock-ribbed conservatives fear what will happen if this should become public. If indictments come (from the Biden DOJ?!) it would lead to open bloodshed. Our side is still afraid of that - theirs not so much.
