Arizona-Style Election Audit Needed in Nevada: GOP Chairman

The Epoch Times

After visiting the election audit of Arizonaโ€™s Maricopa County, the head of Nevadaโ€™s Republican Party said a similar review is needed in Nevadaโ€”although that possibility appears slim, as Democrats control both houses of the state Legislature.

โ€œHats off to the leadership here in Arizona โ€ฆ I think that sets the model, that sets the tone for Nevada,โ€ Republican Chairman Michael McDonaldย said in an interviewย posted to Twitter, referring to the audit efforts in Maricopa. โ€œWe want to duplicate that in Nevada.โ€

Starting in April, a private company has led efforts to audit all 2.1 million ballots cast in Maricopa County, following an order by Arizonaโ€™s Republican-controlled Senate. Democrats, including Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, have frequently decried the process, describing it as partisan and unprofessionalโ€”which Republicans have denied.

McDonald, who said he has a law enforcement background, told the interviewer that he believes the auditโ€™s security and procedures are sufficient.

โ€œWe want to be able to say the same thing in Nevada: That we looked at all the problems we had, all the anomalies that took place, to make sure that it was a clean and fair election,โ€ McDonald said. โ€œBecause it wasnโ€™t.โ€

Namely, Clark Countyโ€”which includes Las Vegas, most of Nevadaโ€™s population, and most of the stateโ€™s Democrat voter baseโ€”should be audited, he said.

Democratic Nevada Senate Majority Leader Nicole Cannizzaro didnโ€™t immediately respond to a request by The Epoch Times for comment.

Cannizzaro told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the state Republican Party and McDonald โ€œare delusionalโ€ for wanting an audit of the stateโ€™s election results.

โ€œThe Nevada Senate isnโ€™t going to waste any time or taxpayer money entertaining their unhinged conspiracy theories,โ€ she said.

Responding to McDonaldโ€™s interview, Democrat Attorney General Aaron Ford said his office โ€œdefeatedโ€ Republicansโ€™ and former President Donald Trumpโ€™s โ€œlawsuits alleging widespread voter fraud.โ€ The attorney generalโ€™s office will push back against any audit efforts, he said.

President Joe Biden was certified as the winner of Nevadaโ€™s six electoral votes, narrowly defeating former Trump during the Nov. 3, 2020, election.

Late last week, officials said the audit of Maricopa County is projected to end on June 26, or about two months after the process started. The Arizona state Senate has control of the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix until June 30.

Audit teams have previously said that after the process is completed, more work will be carried out in July. A final report is expected to be released in August.
