(36,478 posts)3. I found this webpage with a link to the Maricopa county report
https://elections.maricopa.gov/voting/just-the-facts.html#Correcting%20the%20Record
The in-depth analysis and review of the reports and presentations issued by the Senates contractors found that nearly every finding included faulty analysis, inaccurate claims, misleading conclusions, and a lack of understanding of federal and state election laws. Our review of the claims made by Cyber Ninjas, CyFIR, EchoMail, and the Senates Audit Liaisons found:22 were misleading. The claims lead the reader to assume a conclusion that is not supported by the evidence.
41 were inaccurate. The claims include flawed or misstated analysis.
13 were false. The claims are demonstrably false and can be proven false using materials provided to the Senate.
Post-election audits build trust and promote election integrity when they have bipartisan oversight and are conducted by experienced, unbiased professionals who use well-defined, proven processes to provide quantifiable, reproducible proof. These audits can also identify and explain any inconsistencies that arise so processes may be improved, or new laws may be considered.
Unfortunately, the Senates election review and its contractors fell far short of those standards and instead promoted disinformation and distrust. This report details those shortcomings and corrects the record.
It was a decent little grift, too. IIRC, the state funded $150k but the cost went waaaaaayyyyy over and republican orgs funded over $5 million. Expect more Cyber Ninja grifts in the future, since the DOJ didn't bother to shut that farce down.

... the fraudulent reasons that were used to intitiate the recount, but nothing that I read addressed why Cyber Ninja's allowed 300 extra votes for Biden as a result of the recount.

It's an interesting question.
