How important is the signature verification to the fraud proving process associated with this audit? In other words, what's the big picture with this settlement?
This is my big question. I want to know if this is a "small potatoes" inconvenience or compromise, and that the real smoking gun is already in the hands of the Ninjas and Team Trump.
That's my thinking as well. This seems like small potatoes but It would be nice to be sure.
They did say that it doesn't affect the ballots that have already been signature matched, so hopefully they have tons of them completed.
They already counted enough ballots to flip Arizona. My bet.
So this might just be a nothingburger consolation prize for the Dems who likely know they're fucked...
The article did say that there was no restrictions on releasing any data they had already gathered prior to the settlement. Hopefully they did that part of the audit first.
If they are going to make an in-person canvass of a sample of mail-in voters they would need a list, I presume of people whose signature didn't match. That's what the alarm over "intimidating voters" is about. I'm praying they come to me, although my signature is legible and my handwriting has hardly changed.
It sounds like the signature verification was not a big part of it...what's more concerning to me is they now have to let SOS staff in to "observe." I hope they don't sabotage the audit.
This is the sole means of checking that an absentee/early ballot is coming from a registered voter, so it's a big deal. Previously when we voted by precinct, the master signature book was right there. In this election we had many drop boxes, no one to check ID.
