Trump Weighs In on Arizona Election Audit: 'Give the Routers!'

Trump Weighs In on Arizona Election Audit: 'Give the Routers!'

Former President Donald Trump says Maricopa County's refusal to allow full transparency amid the 2020 presidential election audit makes him skeptical once again, suggesting that county election officials have something to hide.

"Why won't the RINO Maricopa County Board of Supervisors in Arizona give the routers?" Trump asked in a statement Monday from his Save America PAC. "What are they trying to hide? They are fighting for life or death. What is going on?"

The latest request for information involves auditors requesting routers from the county for inspection.

"Give the routers!" Trump's statement continued. "Doesn't this mean that the voting was, despite their statements to the contrary, connected to the Internet? The voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election was monumental, and the facts are coming out daily!"

The Republican-held Arizona Senate originally subpoenaed the internet routers from the county polling places, but the county rejected the request, claiming it would cost $6 million to replace them. A similar claim led Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs to destroy voting machines that were inspected by auditors.

Officials skeptical of election fraud argued that Hobbs' claim the voting machines could be compromised by auditors is evidence they are indeed vulnerable to tampering. The voting machines audited would not be used in future elections, Hobbs said, but Arizona Republicans noted they would have been subjected to the inspection and certification process in place in the state.

Also, with respect to the routers subpoena, Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone has said law enforcement security would have been jeopardized, the Arizona Mirror reported.

Auditors argue the routers are critical to finishing a complete report on election vulnerabilities, but Maricopa County election officials say the voting machines were not connected to the internet.

According to CyFir CEO Ben Cotton, one of the subcontractors doing the audit, submitting the routers for inspection would not compromise security, according to the Mirror.

Maricopa County Board of Supervisors in Arizona is saving $6 million by their actions. OH DAMN!!! That just might be pocket change to you Steve.



Steve Williams Monday, July 26th 2021 at 9:06PM

Either you can certify the equipment is safe to use in the election or not. Which is it Ron?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, July 26th 2021 at 9:58PM

Sorry, Steve, that's "NOT" my job. Why don't you loan, no give Maricopa County Board of Supervisors in Arizona $6 million and the problem will be solved. I know you would do anything for Trump, RIGHT?



Steve Williams Monday, July 26th 2021 at 11:22PM

If the board of elections could certify the routers before the 2020 election, they can certify them after the audit, using the same process. I doubt they were certified in the first place, given they were connected to the sheriff's department over the Internet. You are a know-nothing liar Ron, plain and simple.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, July 26th 2021 at 11:45PM

Steve, don’t you know when you’d resort to name calling, you to lost your argument?

You are the same person who have not proved a thing about you have said yet about TRUMP.

Remember Steve, you cannot prove a lie.

Which you should know So well by now.

Steve Williams Monday, July 26th 2021 at 11:53PM

You are telling me nothing Ron. You're a liar. The routers can be re-certified after the audit. There is no reason to buy new routers. That would be the height of stupidity.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, July 27th 2021 at 12:08AM

Then where is your proof that the 2020 Presidential Election was stolen from Loser TRUMP?

Steve Williams Tuesday, July 27th 2021 at 12:12AM

The routers have part of the evidence. That's why Maricopa County won't turn them over.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, July 27th 2021 at 12:21AM

Just what I thought, you don’t have 💩 as far as proof yet and this is going on since Jan 6th some six months after the 2020 Presidential Election Steve and you are going to believe that BULL💩 as proof.

By the way Steve, The My Pillow Guy said Trump will be reinstated on Friday August the 13th.

More to come.

Steve Williams Tuesday, July 27th 2021 at 1:23AM

It wasn't Mike Lindell that said that Ron, it was Ali Velshi.

I said the routers have PART of the evidence. The available evidence will be in the audit report.

I know where that myth started. Maggie Haberman.

Steve Williams Wednesday, July 28th 2021 at 1:00AM

You're talking about white supremacy violent domestic terror extremeists Ron, flagged by the DHS and propagandized by the FBI.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Wednesday, July 28th 2021 at 8:42AM

I am talking about what The My Pillow Guy said, as a supporter of TRUMP. You don't believe in him now Steve?






Steve Williams Wednesday, July 28th 2021 at 10:43AM

Don't you believe DVEs will strike in August?

Be aware of your surroundings.

Steve Williams Thursday, July 29th 2021 at 5:26PM

What do you mean Ron, "believe in him?" Like Jesus?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Thursday, July 29th 2021 at 10:59PM

Do you believe Trump’s side of the 2020 presidential election?

Steve Williams Thursday, July 29th 2021 at 11:48PM

I believe in my side of the 2020 Presidential election. That's what I saw, a malfunctioning ballot scanner and no record of my vote. Trump will return triumphant in 2024.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Friday, July 30th 2021 at 2:26AM

Let’s talk about how Trump the loser of The 2020 Presidential Election and how it was stolen from Trump, this is the subject. Do you have any proof of Trump’s victory?

Steve Williams Friday, July 30th 2021 at 2:39AM

You can see it with your own eyes this very day Ron. Trump continues to have a bigger following than Biden. Much bigger.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Friday, July 30th 2021 at 2:51AM

Trump never did have a following larger then Biden’s and you know for a fact, that you can’t win another Presidential Election unless you cheat and that is what you are doing right now in Republican states and that is to make it harder to vote.

Steve Williams Friday, July 30th 2021 at 10:28AM

We'll keep you from cheating in 2022 and see how that goes. It's shaping up to be a bloodbath.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Friday, July 30th 2021 at 12:27PM

So you want to divert the will of the people so that you can stop me from cheating by stop means people who look like me from exercising my right to vote based on a lie.

How low will you go Steve?

Steve Williams Friday, July 30th 2021 at 4:05PM

Enough with the "people who look like me" Ron. It doesn't work on me.

robert powell Friday, July 30th 2021 at 8:29PM


So you want to divert the will of the people so that you can stop me from cheating by stop means

people who look like me from exercising my right to vote based on a lie.

...Enough with the "people who look like me" Ron. It doesn't work on me.

BOTH of youAll are handsome US USA Citizens; I pray.....

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Friday, July 30th 2021 at 11:54PM

We all should have the freedom to vote because we are all Americans. Steve, do you believe these voting restriction laws are practical for one group of Americans, have the power to Restrict the voting rights of another group of Americans in this country?

Steve Williams Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 3:41AM

Ron, you as an Illinoisan have no say in how we conduct elections in Pennsylvania.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 1:42PM

This question is applicable in a single state, For example, voting restriction laws being set in places like Texas and I believe 42 other states Republican controlled in this country.

Steve, do you believe these voting restriction laws are practical for one group of Americans, have the power to Restrict the voting rights of another group of Americans in this country?


Steve Williams Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 2:02PM

Ron, I don't think there are 43 "Republican controlled" states. You might want to check your math.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 2:22PM

Steve, do you believe these voting restriction laws are practical for one group of Americans, have the power to Restrict the voting rights of another group of Americans in this country?

Steve Williams Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 5:22PM

No Ron, don't be ridiculous. Everyone has access to the U.S. Postal Service. They are famous for it.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 7:36PM

Then why are The Republicans want to restrict my vote in the 43 states.

Steve Williams Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 9:08PM

Who says RESTRICT Ron? Only you. Talk about fixing the long lines so folks won't wonder where there water is coming from. Those long lines are because of your BELOVED "election officials."

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 10:50PM

17 States Have Passed Restrictive Voting Laws This Year, Report Says

The Supreme Court issued a new ruling on Thursday that upheld two Arizona laws restricting organizations' ability to collect mail-in ballots as well as invalidating ballots cast in the wrong precinct. Critics say the court's decision further erodes landmark voting protections codified by the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Here’s my proof: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/17...

Steve Williams Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 11:15PM

Ron, did you know your precious vote isn't Constitutional? It's one of those norms you've just gotten used to. That's where your harebrained idea of federalizing elections comes from. Arizona has their say over their own elections and you have the same right in Illinois to select your Electors any way you like.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, July 31st 2021 at 11:51PM

So, are you in favor of restrictive Voting Laws Steve?

Steve Williams Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 1:42AM

Nothing is likely to change in Pennsylvania Ron. We have a Democrat Govermor you know.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 8:40AM

So, are you in favor of restrictive Voting Laws Steve?

Steve Williams Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 9:07AM

I'm in favor of banning all mail-in voting in Pennsylvania except for legitimate absentee voting.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 11:10AM

How about the overturning of a duly elected decision by the people of that state?



Steve Williams Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 3:59PM

What Ron, you think Governor Wolf would sign such a law? Maybe you should concern yourself with Illinois and leave Pennsylvania to the citizens of Pennsylvania.

Steve Williams Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 4:04PM

It's nice to dream though. Tom Wolf will be out in 2022. Watch us elect a Republican.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 5:35PM

That law may not be in Pennsylvania but it is in states like Georgia and Texas. You do you feel about the overturning of a duly elected decision by the people of that state?

That is happening across Republican Controlled States NOW?



Steve Williams Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 10:15PM

Ron, show me in the Constitution where the people directly elect the President. It's not there so explain how you think the people directly elect the President. Have you ever looked into it?

Steve Williams Sunday, August 1st 2021 at 10:25PM

Thus, we have four different methods of choosing our public officials, and each public official serves for a different length of time. This makes it virtually impossible for any party, faction, region, or socio-economic group to gain power throughout government. Exactly what our Founding Fathers intended.

Over the last hundred years, the United States has become more democratic. States and local governments added ballot propositions, giving the people a means of bypassing the legislature and governor to pass veto-proof legislation with a simple majority. The Seventeenth Amendment provided for direct election of senators. Originally, state legislatures selected the members of the electoral college; now the people of each state vote on which candidate each state’s electors will choose. Political parties used to choose their nominees, but states started moving to primary elections about 100 years ago (Oregon was the first to have a presidential preference primary in 1910). Now, the people instead of the parties choose their nominees. The people’s opinion gained even more strength with the advent of modern polling,

Not all these moves toward democracy are bad. Many, if not most, would argue that allowing the people to choose a party’s nominee is better than having party bosses do so. But overall, the trend toward democracy has weakened the systems of checks and balances our Founders established. The Founders were very wary of democracy and rightly so. As James Madison explains in Federalist No. 10:

Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 12:00AM

What did you say about how you feel about the overturning of a duly elected decision by the people of that state, just because the people in power doesn’t like the outcome?

Steve Williams Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 3:09AM

The People have no right to elect the President. That right belongs to the State Legislators. They are the ones the People have a right to elect. It's pretty simple Ron, the People are not qualified to elect the President directly.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 10:32AM

To Choose A President

Summer 2012, Vol. 44, No. 2

By David S. Ferriero

The Electoral College. Established 1787.

It isn't really a college, and the electors aren't tenured professors.

The electors are really voters, and their votes count in a very big way.

The electors were created by the Constitution to do only one thing: elect the President and Vice President of the United States.

The Electoral College became part of the Constitution at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia in 1787, when delegates assembled to devise something to replace the Articles of Confederation.

By September, they had finally produced the Constitution, which represented a number of compromises among the delegates. One of the compromises involved the creation of the electors.

Some delegates wanted Congress to choose the President, but that would have upset the balance of power among the three branches of government. Others called for direct popular vote, but that would have left the decision in the hands of ill-informed voters who knew little about politicians outside their home state.

So they created electors. And they hoped the electors would be some of brightest and best informed people who would base their decisions on the candidates' merit. (Each state gets as many electoral votes as it has members in the Senate and House.)

* * *
Today, the Electoral College's activities are overseen by the National Archives. We delegate this duty to our Office of the Federal Register, which every day publishes all the laws, regulations, and rules of the U.S. Government.

The Federal Register staff has been preparing for this duty for months, making sure officials in each state and the District of Columbia know what to do and when to do it, long before election day.

When you do go to the polls in November, you actually vote for a slate of electors pledged to vote for particular candidates for President and Vice President.

Some states require electors to vote for the candidate they've pledged to support. Other states do not have this requirement, and electors can vote for anyone they want, even if they've pledged to vote for a particular candidate.

The electors meet in their respective state capitals in mid-December and sign their ballots, which are then sent to Congress and the Federal Register.

Officials at the Register open their set and certify that the ballots are in proper order and are genuine—so there are no problems when an identical set is opened before a Joint Session of Congress in early January.

After Congress counts the votes, the candidate with a clear majority—270 out of 538—is elected. If no one gets a majority, the election goes to Congress to resolve. But the House has elected the President only twice, in 1801 and 1825, and the Senate has chosen the Vice President only once, in 1837.

In all but two states, the winner of the popular vote gets all the state's electoral votes. But not in Maine and Nebraska. The statewide winners receive two electoral votes (representing its two senators) and the winners of each of the congressional districts receive one electoral vote per district.

In 2000, Americans discovered, for the first time since 1876, that the popular vote winner isn't always the electoral vote winner. Then, Vice President Al Gore received about a half-million more popular votes nationwide than Texas Governor George W. Bush. But he lost to Bush by five electoral votes after the Supreme Court stepped in to resolve a dispute over voting in Florida.

The Federal Register staff has not always had an easy time in getting ballots in order for Congress in time for the counting. In 2004, it had to send back a couple of state certificates because they didn't bear the state seals. One year, the staff had to call state troopers to track down a governor to make sure the signed ballots arrived on time.

The electoral votes are counted in a joint session of Congress in early January, as specified by the Constitution, and the new President and Vice President take office at noon on January 20.

Despite problems, and despite calls for abolition or reform, legislation for an amendment to abolish the Electoral College has not been seriously considered in Congress for nearly 40 years.

A new Electoral College will be established this fall, and electors will meet in mid-December to cast their ballots. At the Federal Register, our staff will be standing by, ready to do the quadrennial honors.

Your role in all this: Vote!

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 10:34AM

That how the people of The United States of America picks a President by law.

Steve Williams Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 11:50AM

The Electors, in all cases, should be selected by the State Legislatures. 2020 proved that the popular vote is not a viable way to select the President, BECAUSE IT ADMITS MASSIVE FRAUD.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 2:06PM

What ADMITTED MASSIVE FRAUD? Show me that proof in your next reply and if you can’t or shut the 🦆up!


Steve Williams Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 2:51PM

I said the popular vote "admits massive fraud." Let me help you out Ron, perhaps English isn't your native tongue.

transitive verb
1a : to allow scope for : PERMIT
admits no possibility of misunderstanding
b : to concede as true or valid
admitted making a mistake
2a : to allow entry (as to a place, fellowship, or privilege)
an open window had admitted rain
admitted to the club
b : to accept into a hospital as an inpatient
he was admitted last night for chest pains
intransitive verb
1 : to give entrance or access
2a : ALLOW, PERMIT
admits of two interpretations
b : to make acknowledgment —used with to
admitted to having doubts

Steve Williams Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 2:52PM

Massive fraud was admitted in Arizona, with the withholding of the routers.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 6:11PM

Is that all you got as proof to prove your point of ADMITTED MASSIVE FRAUD?

Just what I thought you don’t have 💩 to show but more TRUMP’S LIES. Shame On You Steve!

Steve Williams Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 6:15PM

Ron, I think it's an interesting climax, we are finally talking about democracy and human nature. That's what the founders were talking about too, what a coincidence.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, August 2nd 2021 at 6:25PM

Robertpowell, I guess the way you communicate is proper English?

LAUGHING OUT LOUD at that one💨.
