Arizona legislators take possession of all ballots and voting machines from Maricopa County
Almost six months have passed since President Donald Trump faced defeat, but that isn’t stopping Arizona state senators from investigating the election results in Maricopa County.
Senate leadership subpoenaed the county’s 2.1 million ballots and the voting machines they came from. From there it will all be handled by Cyber Ninja, a Florida-based cybersecurity company. Legislators hired the auditor for $150,000. The audit is expected to scan and recount all ballots, examine the registration of votes cast, and the electronic voting system itself according to a press release.
Trump predicted from the beginning that there would be further investigations into the 2020 election.
“Thank you State Senators and others in Arizona for commencing this full forensic audit,” the former president said. “I predict the results will be startling!”
Cyber Ninja’s owner Doug Logan expressed his mixed feelings about the election results.
“There’s a lot of Americans here, myself included, that are really bothered by the way our country is being ripped apart right now,” Logan said. “We want a transparent audit to be in place so that people can trust the results and can get everyone on the same page.”
Legislators expect to have the results of the audit within 60 days.

Don Lemon loses it on Senators Manchin, Sinema for holding up voting bill: ‘that’s bull***’
CNN’s Don Lemon cursed out those “moderates” such as Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) “who are blocking people’s access to the voting booth, they want to use Dr. King conveniently. They’re the biggest hypocrites on the planet.”
“If Sinema and Manchin really want to honor the legacy of Dr. King and all the people who fought for civil rights and voting rights in this country, what they would do is to carve out for voting rights with the filibuster” he continued.
“But for some reason they are stuck with these rules that are backwards…The filibuster has been used to block civil rights legislation forever and so we need to stop that. We evolved. Just because there is a rule doesn’t mean that that rule can’t change. The Constitution is amended. So it’s time to amend the rules. And fight and, and protect the most sacred right that we have as Americans, and that is the right to vote.”
Lemon then quotes Dr. Martin Luther King about a “white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice….who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a ‘more convenient season.”
That sounds like the moderates, says Lemon, referring to Senators Manchin and Sinema. “And you’re supposed to be a Democrat who espouses to the ideals of Dr. King. That’s bull***t that’s B.S.”
"That’s bull … That’s BS. And you should be ashamed of yourself. You are a hypocrite." @donlemon unloads on lawmakers who want to honor Martin Luther King, Jr. while standing in the way of voting rights reform by opposing the filibuster. pic.twitter.com/UKX0tQGI2E
