Maricopa County tells off Arizona election “auditors”
Whatever these election “auditors” are attempting to accomplish in Arizona, it’s not working. Their inept antics aren’t going to change the mind of a single person when it comes to the 2020 election result. They’re pushing the limits of the law in a way that already has the DOJ breathing down their necks. And now they’re prompting Arizona officials to call them out as frauds.
Take, for instance, this missive from the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, which is where Trump and his henchmen are pretending the bulk of the imaginary “voter fraud” took place:

It’s becoming more clear that this “audit” effort has nothing to do with trying to somehow magically overturn the 2020 election, or even with changing the minds of anyone out there. It’s simply an amateur stunt by Trump loyalists, aimed at making Trump feel better about the fact that he got his butt kicked by seven million votes.
