So What's The Trick With The Arizona Audit?

[Me.]

They were doing it to proven the election results were wrong and that TFG was cheated. The results they found, unless the media have it wrong, is that the election was fair and square and that PJB was cheated out of 300+ votes. What's going on here...even if this is true according to their calculations why aren't they lying about it? I can't help waiting for the other shoe to drop.

1. Data harvesting

2. Good One

I could kick myself for not thinking of that

5. No question.

Dangerous abuse of govt. protected information for nefarious ends. A criminal enterprise we are fighting now in PA. Where they want the last four digits of the SS# !!!!!! Ask yourself this question… for what possible reason?
That’s an easy one.

14. Bingo! It's Data Rape.

Republican Data Rape.

3. They, who are they,

have voter data that can be used to gerrymander, suppress the vote, and use it on social media.

Look at what Pa. is asking for.

This wasn't about counting ballots.

6. Beat me to it.

See my post above.

7. MAGATS will say this proves Trump was cheated

Even though the report says the exact opposite. They'll seize on some dubious sentence and spin themselves into madness.

By the end of the day they will convince themselves this proves Trump won. Again, even though it says the exact opposite. And they will scream for more states to be Cyber Ninjed.

It's what they do.

8. To "prove" "insecurity"

The Ninjas are going to be very careful to say they didn't find any legally provable fraud/sharpie bleed/bamboo ballots, but they're going to have a dozen pages of "loopholes" "weaknesses" and "inconsistencies" that show the AZ election process is susceptible - "We aren't saying any fraud DID happen, but there's just so many ways it COULD HAVE that you really need a bunch of voter suppression laws, just to be on the safe side."

15. Chicken Dinner!!!!

Precisely this. You win.

The report claims that there are more than 50,000 votes where fraud was possible.

I have no doubt that Maricopa County will make easy work of showing that those 50,000 ballots were on the level. But casting doubt on the security of elections is exactly what this was all about.

9. Yup

I agree. Probably both:

Data Harvesting.

I'm sure there's a lot they can do with that data.

&

Legitimizing election audits.

They've probably already made it commonplace (or they will eventually) that people will not trust elections. Every time their side loses they'll want to "check" the results of the states they lost (not the states they won though -- those are good). It's not possible that they just lost. Something fishy had to've taken place. As tfg did with the "rigged" talk prior to both elections, this will do the same. Their whole side thinks/will think any election they lost is fraudulent. Just cast doubt on the results they don't like constantly. Gaslighting.

10. To keep the big lie in the news cycle

Pennsylvania is next, and the outcomes don’t matter.

[Liberal In Texas]

11. They want to make these "audits" a regular thing.

Just keep the pretense that elections aren't on the up-and-up. Adds to voter disillusionment therefore lower turnout. Also clouds any real problems with election fraud.

12. Access to the hardware and software of the means of voting and tabulating

[obamanut2012]

13. So, when they find TRICKS AND RIGGING

Next time, they can say, see, we are honest!
And, data harvesting.

17. They got PAID to do this!
