They did no such thing they said the files were deleted but they were able to recover them.
You didn't read it did you? useful idiot that can't make it past the headline.
Slow down college.
read the article before you comment. This is basic...
We have. Read slower, think harder.
you didn't read the article of this post, and are trying to justify your illogical fear of fact checking that you joined in on, like a torch holding mob member unaware of what is going on... useful idiot.
read the article. realize you are being triggered liberals when you attack a user dropping pro trump info...
I promise no one read the article, who commented. If they did, the comment section would like much different.
I posted this article expecting people to read, enjoy, and move on... Not bitch about a phrase that "triggers" them like trained dogs...
You are beyond being reached. I feel sorry for you because you probably just legit don't understand what people are saying to you.
I posted a valid pro trump article. people didnt read it. they said it was fake news without reading it. fact checking is what we do in Q more than anything. what am i missing?

The "They did no such thing" refers to the auditors not backtracking. You seem to think they got defensive about the title. Whereas I read that as them affirming what the article is saying. You can't assume they didn't read it and start name calling. It makes you look insane.
You just highlighted that they did not read the article, and just read the headline.
How? That's what the article was about. The fact that the files were deleted and recovered and not as suggested 'found'.
READ IT LMFAO
Okay nutter.
Can I ask a question? Why are people being called useful idiots for not reading an article about something they already know? Most of us have seen the video of Mr. Cotton’s testimony. I did read the complete article and did not learn anything I didn’t already know. So I appreciate an article that reinforces what I know, but also realize it’s not directed at me.
Also have to say it is impossible to read every article and view every video posted here in a day. But articles and transcripts are preferred. Thanks for your good faith reply in advance.
OP is Bidening
read the article you are all afraid of fact checking. that is scary... we are the party of science and logic and reason, not the left. Fact checking is what we do in Q EVERY FUCKING DAY!
OP is a vitriolic moron.
if you think fact checking is evil and feel the need to attack an ally who is fact checking for US THE PEOPLE, then you are misdirecting your aggression.
Fact checking is what we do here every damn day.
You weren’t fact checking anything. You posted a headline for the post in the form of a question that people answered. I agree it seems most people didn’t read the article. I didn’t at first because I didn’t notice it was also a link. Before you start chastising me because I didn’t, keep in mind most people on here are looking at 100’s of posts and articles a day. Sometimes people miss things like a link to an article. Phrasing your post as a question leads people to answer you without realizing it is also link. That’s what I did until I read the comments. Not saying everyone didn’t notice it was an article but that’s what happened to me. I don’t think many people on here are against legitimate fact checking. ( which this is legitimate, at least I think so) If you don’t understand why people here are alarmed by the term fact checking, that’s on you. Maybe you should do some research to understand why people here are extremely skeptical of the term fact checking or fact checker.
I posted the headline of the article, I did not post a question. You are just further demonstrating how few people read the article. They saw the phrase "fact check" and attacked lmfao. thats all. idc, no skin off my bone. Just letting people know to read articles, and not just the headlines, even more do not interpret a headline as a posts title... I wasnt asking ANYONE anything with this post. I know you know that though.
The AP revealed their lack of trustworthiness and their bias with that headline.
This is exactly why I choose to listen to these hearings firsthand, with my own eyes and ears. I do NOT trust what these so-called "reporters" write.
thank goodness the Tuesday hearing was broadcast and videos are available of the actual testimony.
There will be a day that the "Associated" Press will go under exactly because of their associations with propaganda and the fact that they disassociate from the TRUTH.
The AP’s headline reads, “Arizona auditors backtrack, say no election data destroyed.”
“The claim of deleted databases was amplified by former President Donald Trump and his supporters, who believe conspiracy theories about election irregularities,” the report said.
Let’s review the facts.
At a special meeting held Tuesday by Arizona state Senate President Karen Fann and Senate Judiciary Chairman Warren Petersen to get an update on the audit of Maricopa County votes in the November general election, Ben Cotton, founder of CyFIR LLC, testified that the files were in fact deleted, but he was able to recover them.

“In the course of your analysis of the EMS [election management system] server, did you determine that the database directory had been deleted?” Petersen asked.
“I did,” Cotton answered and then offered further background information.
I hope not.
I listened firsthand to Cotton's testimony on Tuesday, so I knew the moment I read that headline that it was bogus.
It p*ssed me off then as it does now.
Now you seem to be up in arms about me being p*ssed about the same crap you're pointing out.
read it. you did not. fact checking is not evil. they fact checked the false claim of the title. you are a useful idiot who cannot read past a headline...

This dude is shooting first and asking questions later.
"believe it or not, fact checking is inherently evil"
"read it. you did not. fact checking is not evil."
You have to work on your consistency, matey.
it was a mistype you degenerate. fact checking is not inherently evil. it isnt. you are a literal retard if you think facts are now evil, and verify them is a sin? stfu
Holy shit you are retarded. Go back to reddit.
Did the USPS driver really 'recant' on claims he delivered ballots across state lines, as the feds reported?
typical MSM twisting and gas lighting
According to the AP there was no crime here.
Auditors stated that the data was destroyed and then had to admit they lied. because they were able to recover the databases.
So nothing was destroyed. (of course the AP does not say anything about the special data recovery tools needed to recover the Destroyed Data)
Basically, he said they recovered the deleted data, Ginger McSadHair said "No u" and AP/MSM lost their minds and said, "OMG not even Republicans agree with #fraudit, even this county official PROVES that the files weren't deleted."
They didn't prove anything, its pretty much he said she said, but at least the auditors provided a screenshot instead of just "no u".
I am a little stupider than you op, can you explain the article for me since I cannot read?
Here is a quick run-down for you!
I read it. Why do you keep running with that mantra. Not one commenter agrees with you. You joined 14 days ago. You are either a shill or you don’t understand what everyone who commented means.
Shills browse new looking for fights
read it... please
believe it or not, fact checking is NOT inherently evil... This is a fact check that is correcting fake news. Do you not fact check by researching? The medias job is to fact check for the people... They need to start doing that, and this is a good example.
OP you are so defensive it has retarded your brain. You are misunderstanding everyone in your comment section.
I posted an article that is pro trump, pro az audit, pro Q basically, they are attacking because they see the phrase "fact check" which is not inherently evil... not remotely. We fact check here every day. This article is a good example of GOOD fact checking.
People are being critical of AP. Some how that is getting passed you. No one thinks fact checking is bad.
The very first response to my post, was answering the headlines question. I was not posting a question. I posted a link to an article, with the headline being a quesiton...
This user provided no context and could have also been answering the post as if it was a question.

This user got upset that I noticed the first comment, did not actually read the article, and in fact answered the post, as if it was a question. They provide an in depth explanation for why my post, is not needed.

These all demonstrate a clear lack of awareness as to what this post actually was.
Thank you for reminding me why I stopped replying to comment on this site, and never used social media or reddit in my life, the vocal minority is the same, NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO, they can't help it but be obnoxious
