When will this bullshit audit in AZ be over?

This article sheds some light. The hand recount is almost done, but then they are going to start scrutinizing the ballots themselves. Since those are all judgement calls you can bet the ninjas will be finding all sorts of "problems" with any ballot with a Biden vote on it. "Oh, the loop on the L is a micrometer higher than on your drivers license? Well, that signature doesn't match! into the trash it goes!"

What is 'paper evaluation'?

Bennett said the “paper evaluation” involves a review of the ballot paper for irregular folds, signs that a machine filled out the ballot, or differences between ballots sent by mail and those filled out in-person at a Vote Center.

“All kinds of characteristics about the ballot that confirm or question their authenticity,” Bennett said.

These questions about the ballots have been raised by conspiracy theorists, without any apparent basis in fact.

3. There are no voter names on AZ ballots. Votes are anonymous.

So no comparisons with voter signatures can be done. They are looking for evidence that Chyna flew in additional Biden ballots and nobody noticed.

They are not, and can not, check for signatures. They are looking for evidence of illicit chyna- produced ballots. Because how could tRump not have won? Who wouldn’t vote for an insane, traitorous, fascistic, malevolent nincompoop?

There's nothing there, maybe they'll stroke. Keep them busy chasing nothing.

They can kiss my ass too.

going on there.

A final report on the Senate Republicans’ election review is expected in late July or August, according to a timetable from audit media coordinator Randy Pullen.

Seven months after the November election, the audit won't overturn the results of the presidential or U.S. Senate votes in Arizona.

15. When the one in Georgia begins?

After claiming victory in AZ and GA, he would only need Wisconsin to claim an electoral victory over Joe Biden and to claim the election was "illegitimate". All he really needs is AZ and GA to make that claim. He could create enough chaos in Wisconsin to throw the entire election into question, even today.
