    I didn't say people voted at a different time but they do vote in different elections. They vote for the State's national representatives and they vote for the President and VP. People in Texas don't vote for Senators for California but President is a national vote, piggy backed on and run by the State elections. That's why I need a photo ID and maybe you don't.

    Taxpayer money going for what?

    It is a spectacular waste. It's a political ploy. You can see that, right?

    Except if that is the case they will just lie and say it was less. That is what happens when you hire a company based off it political loyalties and not its expertise

    Prove they will not.

    Why else hire a company that has no experience and no expertise in conducting an audit but is on record for supporting "Stop the steal".

    Explain why this same company gave the auditors blue ink pens which can be used to alter the ballot for when it is scanned, instead of red or green as is protocol.

    I think part of the audit should be to audit the machines as well.

    The Trump team did that in Michigan and found jack ****.

    Everything you want done has been done and nothing has been found.

    But you will continue to ask for more and more and more until your god is declared the winner of the election. This **** gets old after a while

    Not true. They found the audit logs had been deleted, for one.

    Also false.

    It's too late for that. Some of us are simply concerned about having free, fair elections. Some just care about getting a Democrat in office.

    Not how this works. I have made no assertion in either direction about lying. You made the assertion that they will lie. You stated it as fact. You made the assertion, its your duty to prove it. Or retract.

    Why not hire someone that is not normally a part of the process? And are you going to hire people you know are biased against you? Of course not.

    Something that was corrected before any ballots were checked. You yourself note that they have no experience. Chalk it up to inexperience would be the Occam Razor thing to do. Unless you have evidence that they purposefully meant to alter ballots? No? Then you have nothing but conjecture at best.

    Actually, he doesn't need to retract a future prediction until they release some non-lying results...

    Did they teach history in your public school?

    I bet you thought that was a really great comeback

    Virtually zero people, all but the most extreme, believe that it is all, or even a majority of white people are white supremacists.

    Why are cons pretending this audit will change their minds if no fraud is found.

    Georgia did 3 separate recounts and signature verification by an independent company 3 months ago, but republicans still contend there was massive fraud in georgia.

    Just admit you want an audit that is favorable to a conclusion you have already made, and it's not about "finding the fraud."

    For those that haven't followed the circus that has become the IOP in Arizona, here is a solid recap of (some of) the hijinks going on since the election.... You'll laugh at the stupidity and you'll cry at the same stupidity

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/half-trumps-defeat-arizona-republicans-154749683.html

    Some lowlights

    - The pro-Trump cable channel One America News Network has started a fundraiser to finance the venture and has been named one of the nonpartisan observers that will keep the audit on the straight and narrow.

    - After a brief pause Friday ordered by a state court judge, the audit continues without clarity on who will do the counting, what it will cost and who will pay for the process,

    - Officials rented a local coliseum, but the county sheriff’s office refused to provide security, calling the job outside its scope.

    - Amid the growing uproar, the Republican senators who have approved and stood behind the audit since its beginning have largely been silent about concerns over its integrity.

    Country wide humiliation coming here?? You betcha...

    You mean except for the people who made “White Fragility” the NYT best seller for months on end and is still the best seller in the non-fiction category. A book which explicitly declares all white people racist.

    If you’re not doing proper signature verification, then pray tell how are you expecting to find fraudulent ballots?

    If there is large scale fraud found then anyone will be allowed to verify. What’s the problem?

    Looks like he auditing company republicans handpicked to conduct the process already f'd up. They were using blue pens instead of red to mark up the ballots which could cause the machines to incorrectly reject ballots.

    Why is a company that doesn't know which ink they are allowed to use running this thing? How can something so elementary go unnoticed and be ignored by an auditing team? Perhaps they were trying to change votes with those blue pens.

    My sources tell me that the same company is auditing Califofnia next.

    Since everybody knows that Trump really won Cali by 10 Million.Votes.
