Attorney General Mark Brnovich is taking up Senate President Karen Fann on her request for an investigation into the findings of the Cyber Ninjas’ audit report. 

On Monday, his office’s Election Integrity Unit sent a letter to the Senate asking for supporting documents from the Cyber Ninjas’ audit report released on Friday, according to a news release from Brnovich’s office. Assistant Attorney General Jennifer Wright also sent a letter to Maricopa County officials asking them to preserve all documents and data related to the 2020 election, saying she expects to need them as part of the investigation. 

“The Arizona Senate’s report that was released on Friday raises some serious questions regarding the 2020 election,” Brnovich said. “Arizonans can be assured our office will conduct a thorough review of the information we receive.” 

Wright is asking the Senate to turn over unredacted copies of all reports; evidence supporting some of the findings, including subcontractor Ben Cotton’s claims about files being deleted and county elections devices connecting to the internet and Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai’s allegations about inadequate signature verification; and an opportunity to meet individually with the contractors and subcontractors who prepared the audit report. 

Wright is also asking the county to preserve a long list of election-related records, including ballots, election equipment, electronic data related to election systems, security camera footage and building access records.
