Any Arizona legislature member can propose legislation.
Of course they can, they just can't bring it to the floor for a vote. Guess who does that?

So back to audit being a fraud because Trump also wants one?
I didn't day it was a fraud, I said it was a waste and it shows the true reason for it. How many more times you need this repeated?
Because you think Republicans in Arizona are wasting their resources?
The Independents swing AZ - not the Republicans.
The independents in AZ take being independent seriously.
They are the reason Trump lost.
And the independents put the people into the state senate, who enacted the audit.
Samey same.
Funny how one part is bad and one part is good.
Lol
This is one I want to look back on 10 years from now.
I don't expect it to fair well.
Really?
Was it different voters that did this?
You keep reminding us of the preferences of Arizona voters, did they not put the state senators in office?
You are there, if they did not by all means let me know please.
Elections were before this.
Demographics in AZ have been changing.
I'm more interested in the fall out from this "inquisition".
From what I read the state outcomes were even at 3-3 in elections in 2020, were they not?
Same people put those senators in, right?
As I said -- before all this went down.
So -- we're now in after affect.
That is my stance on this.
I do not do circular back and forth.
Yep
Those elected to the majority, by independents according to you, enacted this audit.
Otherwise they would not have the majority.
And as much as transparency has been fought against, I also am interested in upcoming election results.

If there isn't enough fraud to make any difference, but there still is fraud, I would like for it to be recognized and if possible, stopped from happening again. But I'm old fashioned like that.
Yeah, I'm another old stick in the mud that way!
I've brought up the adjudicated ballots many many times. I have no idea if any fraudulent votes resulted from those adjudicated ballots, but I sure as hell know the potential is there. Even potential is too much.
If fraud is minimal or is not found at all, great!!! (And I realize that is a possibility if only because some of these critters are dumber than rocks! Even if the will is there, the brains aren't.)
But we still need to fix what's broken... what could be exploited and manipulated and contorted into outright fraud.

That's all well and good but it's a rather pollyanna-ish approach. So long as there are people involved there will always be some sort of fraud committed. I'm not disputing that there is, what I'm saying, again, is that it's never been enough to be appreciable and it certainly won't change this election more than the tiniest fraction of a percent.
I'm half joking when I ask if you prepared yourself for the possibility of being wrong, but then, I know you well enough on here to know you haven't and likely won't.
You've been here as long as me, you ever see my make a knowingly false statement? You ever see me jump into something when I wasn't certain?

You just want to keep circle arguing that a senate was elected prior to this fiasco - - at a time voters did not have that knowledge?
Maybe they should have had a time machine to go into the future - - to witness this -- then come back and decide if they still wanted to vote the same way.

Some? When 70% of Republicans think Trump 'got cheated' you think they'll all of a sudden go, "Oh, yeah, I was soooooo wrong about that...."?
I will bet you right now when, not if, the Arizona fiasco is over and no widespread fraud is proven that they'll be telling you that it was done wrong and if we can only do it another time, say in Michigan, we'll prove it for real.

I appreciate your honesty, and you know I like you a great deal, watching this ongoing fraud-quest saga is like watching people yelling at me that contrails are poisoning me or that we never went to the moon.

Is that your civics lesson for the day or was that just you trying to avoid saying that the Senate President is the only one who can bring a bill to the floor for a vote?
