Few Arizona voter fraud cases undercut Trump's claims

 

Arizona county election officials have identified fewer than 200 cases of potential voter fraud out of more than 3 million ballots cast in last year’s presidential election, undercutting former President Donald Trump’s claims of a stolen election as his allies continue a disputed ballot review in the state’s most populous county.

The 182 cases represent instances where problems were clear enough that officials referred them to investigators for further review. So far, only four cases have led to charges, including those identified in a separate state investigation. No one has been convicted. No person’s vote was counted twice.

While it’s possible more cases could emerge, the numbers illustrate the implausibility of Trump’s claims that fraud and irregularities in Arizona cost him the state’s electorate votes. In final, certified and audited results, Biden won 10,400 more votes than Trump out of 3.4 million cast.

AP’s findings align with previous studies showing voter fraud is rare. Numerous safeguards are built into the system to not only prevent fraud from happening but to detect it when it does.

“The fact of the matter is that election officials across the state are highly invested in helping to ensure the integrity of our elections and the public’s confidence in them,” said Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, a Democrat. “And part of that entails taking potential voter fraud seriously.”

Arizona’s potential cases also illustrate another reality: Voter fraud is often bipartisan. Of the four Arizona cases that have resulted in criminal charges, two involved Democratic voters and two involved Republicans.

AP’s review supports statements made by many state and local elections officials — and even some Republican county officials and GOP Gov. Doug Ducey — that Arizona’s presidential election was secure and its results valid.

And still, Arizona’s GOP-led state Senate has for months been conducting what it describes as a “forensic audit” of results in Phoenix’s Maricopa County. The effort has been discredited by election experts and faced bipartisan criticism, but some Republicans, including Trump, have suggested it will uncover evidence of widespread fraud.

“This is not a massive issue,” said Adrian Fontes, a Democrat who oversaw the Maricopa County election office during the 2020 election and lost his re-election bid. “It is a lie that has developed over time. It’s been fed by conspiracy theorists.”

The AP tallied the potential cases after submitting public record requests to all Arizona counties. Most counties — 11 out of 15 — reported they had forwarded no potential cases to local prosecutors. The majority of cases identified so far involve people casting a ballot for a relative who had died or people who tried to cast two ballots.

"Well, psssh, yeah we said all that!  But we were right then!  And it didn't happen this time!  And we know it didn't because we ASKED the people who counted them and they told us they didn't screw it up!"

 

-Democrats 2021 ;)

So, the ninja audit found hacking then?

 

Saying the system is susceptible to hacking is one thing. Claiming there was fraud without substantiation is another.

Woah buddy, it's basically the same thing! How can I rationalize my vote for Republicans unless I equate one party saying that voting machines are vulnerable (my opinion is that they aren't) with an outright lie that the election was stolen? A lie that is now a litmus test for the party. 

 

Jez, they're basically the same thing!

will the fraudit "results" be known before this?   i guess the first time wasn't enough so they are going to do it again.    

 

 

 

I thought the first rule of Treason Weasel Insurrection Club was that you don't talk about Treason Weasel Insurrection Club...or when you plan to commit Treason via Insurrection in the future?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
