NEW: One of the largest looming questions around Arizona's election audit is who all is involved --- and how they got involved.

We are starting to connect the dots.

Here's my story w/ @andrewoxford, for subscribers only.

And THREAD ...
azcentral.com/story/news/pol…

1. Doug Logan.

CEO of Cyber Ninjas, firm running the audit. A little history. (He says his bias doesn't matter because he won't be touching the ballots)

2. John Brakey.

A Tucson guy who says he is trying to make this audit fair and transparent by getting a seat at the table.

3. Gene Kern.

Leader of Wake Technology, the firm running the hand count. We learned more about him.

(Including Anthony Kern says Gene is unrelated)

4. Bobby Piton.

A financial adviser who claimed in November he had found voter fraud in Arizona data says he is currently reviewing Arizona voter information. We tried to nail down his actual involvement.

This story outlines more about what we know about the players involved in the Arizona election audit.

Final thought: As part of working on this story I reached out to @BarnettforAZ because an earlier tweet of his made me wonder if he was getting some insider info on the early results of the audit. He clarified that he is not.
