Pennsylvania Lawmakers Hopeful for Audit After Touring Arizona Election Review

A delegation from Pennsylvania will try to convince legislative leaders in the state to back an audit of the 2020 election after visiting an election review taking place in Arizona's largest county.

Dush said he was impressed by how the Arizona audit was being done, including how the firms hired by the Arizona Senate are handling chain of custody issues.

Mastriano told a pool reporter that he supports Pennsylvania conducting an audit like the Arizona one.

That's the same reasoning Arizona senators have put forth when explaining why they ordered the Maricopa County audit.

A spokesman for Pennsylvania House Speaker Bryan Cutler, a Republican, noted in an email that Cutler recently introduced legislation to establish a bureau of election audits.

The Pennsylvania delegation planned to take the information they learned while in Arizona back to Republican leaders.

"The Arizona forensic audit is really one of the talks of America and there's a lot of stuff being thrown around about how it's being conducted, and I kind of see this as a fact-finding to see what's happening on the ground in Arizona, how it's happening, and if it's something that should be done in other states," he said.
