To give you a little more information, the Maricopa County audit of the 2020 Presidential ballots is the first full, hand-recount of all the ballots cast in the county last November. Initiated by Arizona Senate Republicans, the recount is being conducted by a firm with no experience in conducting election audits, and the company’s CEO also believes that widespread fraud marred the 2020 elections. Election experts, Democratic officials and Republican members of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors oppose the recount, pointing out the voting machines have already been checked by an accredited firm and that the election results were validated by a previous audit. Having now heard this information, do you support or oppose the new audit now happening in Maricopa County?
