Two social media accounts representing the Arizona Senate's review of the 2020 presidential election in Maricopa County were suspended for violating Twitter's rules Tuesday.
The Arizona Senate served Maricopa County with a subpoena asking for ballot envelopes, routers, and voter databases relating to the 2020 presidential election forensic audit.
In Friday statements, President Trump criticized the "concerted effort of the Fake News Media" to discredit "massive number of voter irregularities and fraud" while citing election irregularities revealed by the Maricopa County, Arizona State Senate election audit hearing.
Audit expert Ben Cotton told Arizona Senate leaders on Thursday that computer systems used in the 2020 U.S. presidential election were "breached" in Maricopa County.
Arizona Senate President Karen Fann, who is leading the GOP's 2020 election audit effort in Maricopa County, told the radio station KTAR-FM on 13 July that the number of votes certified by the county and the number of ballots counted in the audit do not match.
The Arizona state Senate will need to request routers and passwords that are being withheld by Maricopa County election officials to complete the audit of the 2020 election results, said an audit spokesman, while State Senate Leader Karen Fann said county executives still haven’t delivered several “missing items” related to a court-ordered subpoena issued earlier this year.
