Refusal to Allow Independent Forensic Examination of Maricopa County Equipment (AZ)

Established Fact

Despite a lawfully issued Arizona Senate subpoena, Maricopa County officials and the Board of Supervisors refused to comply fully with legislative oversight demands, delaying and circumscribing access to voting equipment and election management systems. The DOJ issued a letter to Arizona Senate Majority Leader Karen Fann attempting to curtail the state-Senate-authorized forensic audit, establishing a pattern of multi-actor obstruction by omission.
