The Arizona senate has signed a lease to continue their forensic audit of the 2020 election in Maricopa County through the end of June.

This as audit director Ken Bennet says that the audit team is moving quickly and as of last night, has counted and examined close to half a million ballots.

Meanwhile Dominion Voting Systems released a statement saying they will not comply with a subpoena and release passwords to the auditors.

Because they say cyber ninjas is biased and that releasing the passwords, so the audit team can inspect the machines, would be quote reckless and cause irreparable damage to the commercial interests of their company.

Bennett also says that they still do not have the 'Chain Of Custody Documents' saying,

"Well we still don’t have the chain of custody documents that the county must have kept between when the ballots were put in the warehouse after the November election to when they were delivered to us on April 22nd. We know that one of the county officials tweeted out a photo of some of the ballot pallets being loaded into the back of a truck as though they were ready to deliver them to the Senate. And so we would like to see if their chain of custody documents between November and April include movement of the ballots like that. We have complete chain of custody from the day that they brought the ballots to us, while we’ve been holding the ballots. But we’re still looking for the chain of custody documentation between the election and April."

"The other thing that I think was in President Fann’s letter was that as we open a lot of the boxes, we have kind of a subtotal sheet that says ‘below this is 200 ballots that were part of a batch that Maricopa County counted’ but a lot of times we’re finding a variance. Usually, it’s small, 2 or 3 ballots, but I heard one was 35. One was 165 ballots were present when the cover sheet said that there should have been 200. Even a 2 or 3 ballots per 200 batch is significant because the election Arizona was decided by 2 out of 800! So even if you have a 1 or 2 variance in a batch of 200 ballots, that’s a significant variance in a race that was as close as 2 out of 800."
