Lyin' Josh Shapiro's PA "Audit" Lies

Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro is petrified of what will be exposed when Senator Doug Mastriano conducts a forensic audit of the 2020 General Election.  Not only will it expose that Biden lost bigly, but that he (Shapiro) did too.

Out of fear, Lyin' Josh went on Twitter and spun up four falsehoods in a single tweet about the Pennsylvania 2020 election and Mastriano's audit.

First, let's address his "two audits" falsehood. 

There were not two "audits" in Pennsylvania if you understand the definition of an audit. 

Most audit definitions come from the world of finance and accounting.  The common thread among audit definitions is that audits "confirm the authenticity" of the records.  In this case, it's ballots and/or votes.

Nothing of the sort happened in Pennsylvania after the November 2020 election that confirmed the authenticity of the ballots.

What happened in Pennsylvania was nothing more than recounts based on a sample of ballots.  Whether those were legal ballots or illegal ballots remains in question.

That's why Democrats all over the US (and their media mouthpieces) are decrying post-election audits in the battleground states. 

Here are the details behind Lyin' Josh's "audits."

The first so-called "audit"was nothing more than a recount of a random sample of ballots.  However, that recount was FATALLY FLAWED because at least four counties had incomplete records of the number of voters (a total of 205,000 more votes were cast than voters).

Wanda Murren, a spokesperson for the Pennsylvania Secretary of State readily admitted the records were incomplete.

It is improper to draw a sample without first resolving the discrepancy between the number of voters and votes cast.  Was this issue duplicate ballots being counted?  Or was it a record keeping issue as alleged by Murren?  Or was it a combination of the two?

No one knows for sure. Only a forensic audit can resolve the questions.

Obviously, Pennsylvania should not have certified its election until the discrepancy was resolved.   To otherwise do so was illegal.

Maricopa: What happened to 443K excess ballots?

 

Election progress reports reveal that Maricopa County counted 443K excess ballots.

Previous blogposts here and here highlighted that Joe Biden received about 120K excess votes from the first two tranches of votes reported from Maricopa County.

Those tranches were reported by 8:03 PM MST.

In addition, the first two tranches of votes contained 9,000 more votes than the total reported at the end of the election for all of Maricopa County.    

As mentioned in Maricopa County Caught Red Handed, the total from 8:03 PM were unlikely to include the 168K votes cast on Election Day.   There is no accountability for those ballots. 

It may be that some or all of those votes were never counted in the 2020 election due to misalignment or bleed throughs by sharpies.  Time -- and the final audit report -- will tell.

However, the fact remains that nearly 2.1 million votes from Maricopa were counted by 8:03 PM and that's a big problem for Biden and the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors -- because at least 443K more votes were counted after the morning November 4th.

Did Maricopa transfer 120K excess Biden votes to other counties?

 MARICOPA ROUTERGATE

JULY 22, 2021:  When the Maricopa Audit team briefed Senators Karen Fann and Warren Petersen, it came as no surprise (to me) that they did not mention that by 8:04 PM MST on Election night that Joe Biden received 120,807 more votes than possible in Maricopa County.

Why didn't the auditors report this discrepancy?

Several reasons, but at the top is that the auditors cannot explain what happened to the excess 120K votes until they get access to the Maricopa County router data.

Those Biden votes had to go somewhere.

A.U.D.I.T.: About Undermining Democrat-Implemented Theft (of elections)

Despite the best efforts by the Democrat-media complex and the execrable RINOs who are helping them, the revelations about what truly transpired during the 2020 election have not attenuated one iota over the past week. In fact, the trickle has become a veritable torrent! Before getting to that deluge of election-related reports, a few reminders are in order:

• The Democrats can’t have it both ways, claiming that the election was the “most secure ever” while doing everything possible to preclude the verification of that simple claim through forensic audits.

• Audits aren’t a “threat to democracy,” as the Democrats and their media sycophants continually bleat. In reality, standing in the way of audits undermines our constitutional Republic and the confidence that the American people have in our election processes, for without election integrity, anything is possible (including Democrat/Uniparty political hegemony ad infinitum against the will of the people).

• If we have learned anything in the Age of Trump, the opposite of what Democrats claim is almost certainly the truth. The list is long of Democrat agitprop later proved to be false: Trump-Russia collusion, Trump is a stooge of Putin, Steele dossier, Ukraine phone call quid pro quo, Charlottesville, Trump is a dictator, clearing Lafayette Square with tear gas, inciting insurrection, and all the rest. Thus, their endlessly repeated claims that the 2020 election was the most secure in history with its corollary that any assertions of voter fraud are “baseless” are merely the next on the list of items that will be debunked – just as the mountain of evidence discovered and analyzed since Election Day is making obvious to all but the willfully blind.

• Finally, to claim that those advocating for forensic audits must be stopped “to prevent this concerted effort to undermine our election,” as The Hologram read from his remarks prepared by his handler in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, is the opposite of the truth, as fraud vitiates everything, including a presidency.

Maricopa County Caught Red Handed

Maricopa County had a blank checkbook for casting absentee votes - and used it

 

Vote Dumps -- Caught Red-Handed

Arizona's 2020 election laws allowed all 15 counties to begin tabulating early votes two weeks prior to election day, thus the election night count started with two massive vote dumps of 625K and 1.47M right after the polls closed.   

Those dumps, totaling 2,098,619 votes came from Maricopa County because no other county had more than 527K votes (i.e., Pima at 526,319).   The official results canvass reveals that Maricopa cast only 2,089,563 votes  -- therefore the two dumps contained 9,000 more votes than possible -- for the entire election in Maricopa.   The source of the data table is Edison Research.

Worse yet, Biden’s total from the two dumps is 1.16 million - about 120K votes greater than reported for him in the FINAL results. 

When you consider that Election Day votes plus late arriving absentee votes had not yet been tabulated, the amount of fraudulent ballots in those dumps is a considerable number. 

How big?

The exact number of in-person votes cast in Maricopa County on Election Day is unknown (another audit problem), however, multiple sources reported 167K voters cast ballots at the polls.   If that is true, then the fraudulent ballot count for Maricopa County is at 296K votes (120K from first two dumps + 167K election day + original 9K early over) and counting.

The Navarro Report, Volume III estimated illegal votes at 254,772 across the state.  That total is obviously low.

Is it any wonder that the Arizona Secretary of State, Katie Hobbs, and the Democratic party operatives are in a frenzy over the ongoing audit --  and doing all they can do to stop it?
