Cyber Ninjas officials release policies amid ongoing concerns over controversial election audit
Calls for federal observers to be sent to audit of Maricopa County ballots
As the controversial audit of ballots cast in Maricopa County during the 2020 election continues, there are ongoing calls for greater transparency of the auditing process.
PHOENIX - There are no appeals in the case against the ongoing audit at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Downtown Phoenix, and now, some new sets of eyes will be overseeing the process.
The methods and processes being used in the controversial audit were at least partially revealed on April 29. Officials with Cyber Ninjas, the firm running the audit, released the CyFIR handling policies and WAKE TSI counting floor procedures in ongoing efforts to be transparent.

The public has received the most detailed explanation yet of the route that every Maricopa County ballot will take through an unprecedented recount ordered by the state Senate.
The private company overseeing the recount released Thursday documents outlining policies and procedures for the audit, as ordered by a judge Wednesday, though one document remained under seal.
The 191 pages detailed a process that departs significantly from Arizona’s election procedures. But the documents leave much unclear.

The election audit ordered by Senate Republicans won’t be halted because Democrats shown that voter privacy has been violated, a judge ruled Wednesday.
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Daniel Martin denied the Democrats’ request for a temporary restraining order, saying that they have not brought “substantive evidence” to prove voter privacy has or could be harmed by the audit.
