It's just, it's craziness. And it just, this just continues to undermine our democracy and is based on one losers, failure to be able to accept the fact that he lost.

I mean, the potential damage is far reaching in terms of undermining election integrity far into the future. We have free and fair elections in America, they're the cornerstone of our democracy.

Well, the fact is Anderson there, there is no proof at all. I mean, we have -- the fact that we were able to get observers in there and have some transparency into the process has just reinforced the concerns we already had about what's…

It is headed by a company that has no editing or election experience, and they are making up the rules as they go along.

The people doing this are conducting a fraud-it and do not know what the law is.

I refuse to use the word that the Republican Senate came up with for what is happening in Arizona. They are calling it an audit. It is not an audit.

This is in fact the second time that she has received death threats and the Governor has had to deploy security controls.

Federal law creates a duty to safeguard and preserve federal election records. That`s a pretty serious duty. It`s a pretty serious law. That could very well be being violated at this moment.

Former state representative Anthony Kern has been among those hired to count ballots. Mr. Kern`s name is on the ballot not only as a candidate for state representative but as a presidential elector. The exact race for which he is counting…

This has hurt her credibility in a lot of serious ways.

One of the main concerns is that they're seeing procedures being changed midstream.

We already know that the company running this show that the CEO has come out, stating that Trump won Arizona by 200,000 votes, which we know is baseless.

Well, that's very concerning. And it speaks to the fact that they're not checking people's biases.

Expressing grave concern about what is being done to the ballots and the election results in Arizona.

Today, a bunch of expert elections groups wrote to the voting rights division at the U.S. Justice Department, asking the Justice Department to send real elections monitors to Arizona, right away.

Oh, absolutely. Absolutely.

It's really, it's an efficient expedition for stuff that we know doesn't exist.

All this is going to do is continue to undermine voters' confidence in the process. And there is nothing about this that is going to ease voters' concerns that have been really created by the same politicians who have continued to promote…

It’s clear now that there really is nothing valid that is going to come out of this exercise. They’re on a fishing expedition to find something, we don’t know what.

This is potentially precedent setting for other states in the country. I guarantee that folks are watching this nationally, and if they are able to successfully continue to undermine voters' confidence in our election integrity, they are…

I think there was a high level of expectation that whoever had their hands on the ballots and the equipment would adhere to some level of security measures and transparency. That clearly has not happened.

My concern grows deeper by the hour. It is clear that no one involved in this process knows what they are doing. And they are making it up as they go along.

They`re making this up as they go along and not following any type of written procedures.

Well, this is to be expected if they think that they`re short of a vote. Putting a stop to the proceedings would allow the bill to continue at a later date if they are able to persuade whoever might be holding out to vote for it so -- so…

It has been a little bit more of a partisan issue in the last couple of years, but we -- it was enacted in a bipartisan manner and the permanent early voting list was put in place in a bipartisan manner. And 75 percent of voters in Arizona…
