On Tuesday, CNN correspondent Kyung Lah chased down Arizona Senate President Karen Fann (R) for an impromptu parking lot interview after requesting an interview more than a dozen times. Fann has been among the most ardent proponents of the election “audit” currently being conducted in Maricopa County. The Republican-dominated state legislature authorized a Florida firm called Cyber Ninjas, which had never conducted an election audit before, to conduct the election “audit.”
At one point during this ongoing, weeks-long process, “auditors” were looking for evidence of bamboo fibers because, so went a conspiracy theory, some of the ballots had been flown in from Asia. In another instance, former state Rep. Anthony Kern (R), who was present at the Capitol riot on January 6, was identified as one of ballot counters.
Lah’s interview with the state senate president revealed an interesting insight into Fann’s reasoning behind supporting what the Republican-dominated Maricopa County Board of Supervisors called a “spectacle that is harming all of us” in a letter to Fann.
Fann: I don’t know what’s legit, what isn’t legit. But why wouldn’t we want to answer those questions?
