(CNN)Most of the public rejects Republican efforts to audit states' 2020 election results, saying they believe the reviews are an attempt to undermine valid election outcomes, according to a Monmouth University poll released Monday.

A 57% majority of Americans say that, based on what they've heard about the audits conducted or proposed by legislatures in some states, they view them as "partisan efforts to undermine valid election results." Just a third say they see them more as "legitimate efforts to identify potential voting irregularities."

Further, 40% of the public says that such audits will weaken American democracy, while 20% say it will strengthen it. Another 35% expecting them to have no impact.

The problem-ridden audit of Arizona's 2020 election results, which has exasperated even some Republicans in the state, hasn't uncovered evidence suggesting widespread voter fraud. But it has inspired pro-Trump Republicans to push for similar efforts in other states.

1. Edited! I read your headline wrong.

2. The "counting" in Arizona is scheduled to be finished this month

Is there any doubt that "massive election fraud" will be presented?

Talk about a "witch hunt." If they confirm the accuracy of the official count, will they audit again? If the "recount" suggest that there was election fraud, should the Democrats then audit the auditors?

The chain of custody of these ballots is such a farce. If I had those ballots in hand for that period of time I could make a case that Hubert Humphry actually won the 2020 Presidential election.

The entire Republican election strategy has become an attack on Democracy itself. They know that they can not win free and fair national elections, so instead of changing their policies, they want to destroy the system.

4. These audits are scams designed to fool the low IQ TFG supporters

TFG supporters are very stupid people and only idiots would accept these bogus audits.

5. They're not audits. The states did their due diligence during the election. These are fraudits. /nt
