PHOENIX (AP) — A draft report of the election review in Arizona’s largest county found that President Joe Biden did indeed win the 2020 presidential contest there.

The final report was scheduled to be released Friday afternoon, the result of a months-long review funded in part by taxpayers. The draft document began to circulate Thursday night showing the results of the review’s chaotic hand count of all 2.1 million ballots in Maricopa County, home to Phoenix. The tally in the draft document showed a net gain of 360 votes for Biden over the official results.
The Maricopa County Attorney’s office provided the draft to The Associated Press. Republican Senate President Karen Fann said in a text message the document was “a leaked draft from three days ago,” but did not dispute its authenticity. She would not say if the vote tally in the draft had changed over the course of the week, saying she had signed a nondisclosure agreement.
Whatever the final count cited in the report, it has no bearing on the official, certified reports in Maricopa County or Arizona. Two previous election reviews conducted by nonpartisan professionals according to industry standards also found that Biden won both.
The draft claims a number of shortcomings in election procedures, suggested the final tally still could not be relied upon and recommended several changes to state law.
The election review was run by Doug Logan, the CEO of a cybersecurity firm called Cyber Ninjas.
Logan and others were scheduled to make their presentations to two Arizona senators Friday afternoon.
Arizona’s Senate agreed to spend $150,000 on the audit, plus security and facility costs.
Lol
I have signed sworn affadavits from 3 million people in maricopa that verify traces of soy saucse, msg, and bamboo schaach traces on all of sleepy joes ballots. Audit the audit
So the Republicans are cool with this “audit,” but see no reason for an investigation of the attack on Congress?
Reports elsewhere are that multiple incidents of gross fraud was found, and that the numbers should show ‘Biden’s win’ as imaginary.
For some “unknown” reason, AP is omitting the other news of the report: That the number of confirmed illegally-duplicated ballots, far exceeds the margin by which Biden was supposed to have won.
