Well, lookee here! Trump actually lost by MORE votes after the fraudit!!

PHOENIX — After months of delays and blistering criticism, a review of the 2020 election in Arizona’s largest county, ordered up and financed by Republicans, has failed to show that former President Donald J. Trump was cheated of victory, according to draft versions of the report.

In fact, the draft report from the company Cyber Ninjas found just the opposite: It tallied 99 additional votes for President Biden and 261 fewer votes for Mr. Trump in Maricopa County, the fast-growing region that includes Phoenix.

The full review is set to be released on Friday, but draft versions circulating through Arizona political circles were obtained by The New York Times from a Republican and a Democrat.

Late on Thursday night, Maricopa County, whose Republican leaders have derided the review, got a jump on the official release by tweeting out its conclusions.

Even though it came up with a result that we like (this time). The cyber ninjas are hoping to gain credibility so that next time we will be played.

The “leaked draft report” was intended to provide publicity for the claims of fraud they are making today.

Democrats here and elsewhere are happy to give these people free publicity and credibility.

taxpayer dollars to prove again, that Pres. Biden won. How many millions of dollars were wasted by the GOP in AZ, when that money (and efforts) could have been spent so wisely elsewhere?

It's just gives them an excuse to cut social programs because of the "debt crisis" that they created.

They had to find something to do with the cash that used to pay out on wrongful death lawsuits brought on by Sheriff Joe......
