Opinion: One of the ‘independent’ auditors being considered by the Senate for its election audit is a guy who supplied error-laden information to Trump’s lawyers. Sure, no bias there.

The Republican-controlled Arizona Senate is actually preparing to arrest the Republican-controlled Maricopa County Board of Supervisors. All 16 Republican senators have signed on to a resolution declaring the county officials in “contempt” and directing the Senate president to throw the book at them.
This, because the county won’t hand over ballots and election machinery for yet another audit to tell us yet again that Donald Trump lost Arizona.
This, as the county is conducting its own audit of the machinery – one that state Republican Party Chairwoman Kelli Ward and the conspiracy crowd already have dismissed as a sham.
It’s a good thing this state doesn’t have any real problems.
