T. Belman. This is great news. Other states will follow. The states will prove Trump the real winner.

Arizona state Senate President Karen Fann announced on Wednesday that the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors has agreed to turn over all subpoenaed information sought in relation to the integrity of November’s election.
In Maricopa County — Arizona’s most populous, encompassing the Phoenix metropolitan area — Democratic President Joe Biden defeated former President Donald Trump by 2.2 percentage points or about 45,100 votes.
In doing so, the former vice president garnered about 337,900 more votes than Democrat Hillary Clinton did in 2016, when Trump won the county by 45,500 votes or 2.9 percentage points.
In other words, there was a 5.1 percentage point swing in favor of Biden in 2020.
The Arizona Secretary of State’s official tally has Biden defeating Trump by 10,457 votes.

On Wednesday, the Arizona Senate Republicans released a statement from Fann concerning the integrity of the 2020 election.
“I am pleased to announce that after a hard-fought battle to seek information on behalf of Arizona voters regarding the integrity of the 2020 election, we have reached a favorable agreement with the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors,” Fann wrote.
“Not only has the Board agreed to turn over all the relevant information we sought in our subpoenas so that we may perform an audit,” Fann continued, “but they also acknowledge that the Legislature is a sovereign power of the state and that the county is a political subdivision, and as such, the Legislature has the constitutional and statutory authority to issue subpoenas.”

Subpoenas brought by then-Arizona Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Eddie Farnsworth and Fann on Dec. 15 called for the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to turn over data from the Dominion Voting Systems equipment, along with various reports and logs related to the election.
“There is technology that can look at those ballots to see if there are any anomalies, to see if there’s any dual voting and whether or not these were pre-printed,” Farnsworth said in a December interview.
The Board of Supervisors, however, did not comply with the subpoenas and instead went to court to seek to block them.
In late December, a state judge affirmed the Judiciary Committee’s right to enforce its subpoenas; however, the Senate was not in session at the time.
Last week, when the 2021 legislative session began, new Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Warren Petersen issued another subpoena to the Board of Supervisors, threatening legislative contempt charges if they failed to comply.
Arizona GOP chairwoman Kelli Ward, who was aware of the ongoing negotiations between the Senate and the Board of Supervisors, told The Western Journal on Wednesday that Arizona will be a “trailblazer” in conducting its audit of Dominion voting machines and ballots.
“I think our legislators are going to be great leaders in that, not just here in Arizona, but for the whole country, because these kinds of analyses have never been done before after an election,” she said.
Ward explained that though it’s a new undertaking, experts have completed these kinds of tasks in other states.
One of the anomalies she mentioned that is worth reviewing is that the GOP did well statewide in Arizona, retaining control of the state House and Senate, but Trump and former Sen. Martha McSally came up short.
Many of these Republican wins came in Maricopa County, including flipping the county recorder from Democrat to Republican and retaining every GOP-held county office, along with the open county treasurer seat.
In fact, the only Democrat to win countywide was the incumbent Sheriff Paul Penzone.
All four of Arizona’s Republican members of Congress, whose districts are either entirely or partially in Maricopa County, won re-election.
“It was a red wave,” Ward said. “Other than the question in my mind and in the mind of millions of people, the results of the presidential as well as Sen. McSally’s race. But if you look below those two, it was a red wave.”
The chairwoman said she received a call from Trump on Monday night and the two discussed election integrity.
“His main question was, ‘Is the Arizona legislature going to stay on top of this and not drop the ball?’ And I said, ‘Mr. President, as long as I’m the chairman, I am not going to allow them to just sweep this under the rug,’” Ward said.
“I’m not going to allow anyone to sweep this under the rug, because election integrity is my number one agenda for this 2022 cycle.”

@ Ted Belman:
I am always optimistic, to a certain degree. My main reason this time is that BY LAW (I assume Federal Law) all ballots must be retained in their original condition for 22 months after an election. But, I have also read that the proposed audit is not that of ALL the ballots but of selected samples from a variety of areas.
I don’t know who selects the samples.
Have you hear anything about THAT… I saw the document delineating the audit, which to me, is far too limiting.
@ Edgar G.:
Stay optimistic.
They can hand them over now, since they’ve had a couple of months to get experts to eradicate all signs of their corrupt fake ballots. Even if it IS shown that they were there, the also corrupt courts will do nothing about it, and find the usual feeble “reason” for not accepting, or dismissing the case.
Nothing to “Hurrah” about certainly, with the usurper firmly seated AND supported by his gangsters and JINO….
If Trump were to do anything, it should have been done before Dec 20th. There were mountains of documented proof, That he didn’t, meant that he was not going to.
