The Election Audit Backed Biden's Win. What That Means For Future County Elections

The findings from a partisan, monthslong review of the 2020 general election in Maricopa County were presented at the Arizona Senate on Sept. 24.

Trump-friendly contractors hired by Republican Senate President Karen didn’t find "massive fraud," as some Republicans and former president Trump claimed it would; a hand recount of nearly 2.1 million ballots confirmed President Joe Biden’s victory.

But it did have a lot else to say about the county’s election.

To catch us up on all that, The Show spoke with KJZZ’s Ben Giles, who covers politics.

For more insight into the county's election, The Show also spoke with Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer, who has been an outspoken critic of the so-called audit.
