Uhmm? Not sure how this may turn out. Thinking the standing issue could raise its ugly head again.
Quote:
We reported that the MCBOS would not allow the Arizona Senate to perform an audit of the county's 2020 Election results. The MCBOS sued to Senate to prevent the audit. Then when the Senate updated laws to clarify their right to audit and the courts found that the Senate has every right to audit the county's results, the MCBOS said ok you can do an audit but we want to select the auditors. They then said the only firms they would allow to perform their audit were those certified by the EAS.
The problem for the MCBOS was the choice of auditors that the Senate wanted to employ to perform the audit was not theirs. It was the Senates. Also, the firms the MCBOS said were certified were not certified. They hadn't been for years.
For those who haven't been following this, let me provide background. Pro V&V's certification by EAC (not EAS as stated in the article) expired in 2017. Yet within a few hours of Gateway Pundit revealing that, they were suddenly "certified" again by EAC. Okay so the webmaster sucks at updating? Or did EAC hire a longtime Dominion employee fairly recently? The latter. Jessica Bowers worked for Dominion in their certification of voting systems department for 10 years before she was hired away by EAC in May 2019.
For the math impaired, that means she had been sending Dominion software and hardware to Pro V&V who did not have EAC certification for two years. That also means several people lied under oath in Judge Totenberg's courtroom in October 2020 and before in other hearings, including Sec of State Raffensperger.
The CEO of Pro V&V evaded questions about their own certification process by saying it wasn't his job and he was unfamiliar with the process. He insinuated it was the process his own company used to "certify" voting systems but given the timing, might he have been talking his own company's certification by EAC? A question well deserving of an answer.
Back to the article.

Now a group after reviewing Arizona law, claims that the 2018, 2019, and 2020 elections related to this law were out of compliance with state law. Their rationale is because the firms that reviewed their voting machine equipment were not certified by the EAS as Arizona law mandates.
Here is the press release from the group suing Arizona for not being in compliance with their laws concerning elections.

Quo Warranto Filed in the Arizona Supreme Court
by We the people of Arizona potentially unseating all state elected officials
As average citizens of Arizona, from all walks of life, we have discovered that our past elections in 2018 thru 2020are out of compliance per the U.S. Election Assistance Commission [EAC]. The Help America Vote Act [HAVA]of 2002 established the EAC and our State of Arizona takes a strict view on this Federal Election Law. Our State of Arizona went out of compliance in February of 2017 (or possibly sooner) and was only recently purported to be re-certified in January 2021. There are multiple problems with the documentation regarding contractor laboratories that invalidate any machine certification. A certification can only last for a maximum of two years, and there are very important reasons for this.
This will either unseat every state level politician in Arizona or declare every Federal Law applied to Arizona as unlawful. The violation of Federal law is due to No Certification of the Voting System Machine, which includes all aspects of machine from hardware to software to add-ons by the Voting System Test Laboratories. The VSTL is accredited and overseen by the EAC per the HAVA act and is critical to the compliance and standards set forth by Law. This accreditation must be thoroughly vetted every two years. Arizona takes a strict view of Federal Elections Law Per A.R.S. 16-442(B):
"
Machines or devices used at any election for federal, state or county offices may only be certified for use in this state and may only be used in this state if they comply with the help America vote act of 2002 and if those machines or devices have been tested and approved by a laboratory that is accredited pursuant to the Help America Vote Act of 2002.
