In early May, Gateway Pundit reported about the emergency meeting that the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors called after the County was reportedly unable to provide passwords to the auditors performing an audit of the county’s 2020 Election results.  They also did not provide access to the routers, which were requested in the audit as well.

On May 12, it was discovered that “the entire database” for the 2020 General election, showing the “Results Tally and Reporting,” had been deleted!

On May 17, Ben Cotton, founder of the computer forensics firm CyFIR LLC and one of the contractors working on the audit,  revealed that he was able to recover the deleted files and now has all the voter information on 2.1 million voters from the 2020 election.

Cotton disputed reports claiming he backtracked on allegations that files were deleted from one of the machines and explained in his testimony in front of the AZ Senate how he recovered the deleted election data.

Watch his testimony here:

“My testimony on May 19th before the AZ Senate is being taken out of context by some media outlets. To confirm: the ‘Databases’ directory on the EMS Primary Server WAS deleted containing the voting databases. I was able to recover the deleted databases through forensic data recovery processes.”

Epoch Times reports – Some reports, including articles from The Associated Press and CNN, alleged auditors had “backtracked” from or “reversed” allegations that files were deleted from a machine.

AP, for instance, claimed that Cotton said that “data was not destroyed, reversing earlier allegations that election officials in the state’s most populated county eliminated evidence.”

CNN claimed that auditors “backtracked” from claims that a key database had been deleted.

Arizona GOP Chair Dr. Kelli Ward appeared on OANN (One America News Network) last night. She warned Maricopa County election officials of serious consequences if they refused to comply with the ongoing audit of the November 2020 election.

‘There have to be consequences,’ Ward, the chairwoman of the Arizona Republican Party, said. ‘There could be arrests of people who are refusing to comply.’

Daily Mail reported about Dr. Kelli Ward’s interview with OANN (One America News Network) – The head of the Arizona Republican Party said state officials who don’t comply with the GOP-mandated audit of election results in Maricopa County should be arrested.

‘There have to be consequences,’ Ward, the chairwoman of the Arizona Republican Party, said. ‘There could be arrests of people who are refusing to comply.’

Ward’s comments came after the Republican-controlled Board of Supervisors for Maricopa County refused to attend a meeting Tuesday with GOP senators who had demanded the audit. The board called the audit was a ‘sham’ run by ‘grifters’ that cast doubts upon the democratic process.
