The first witness is a Maricopa County Election official who supervises the election process.

So something got F*cked up on the public line so I'm out. Bummer! this was was like the best background work music ever.

I'm back and of course, it was just in time for the judge to announce a 10 min recess.

Ok! Mr. Alcion is next witness for Trump Campaign Inc. and he is having issues with the unmute and audio settings.

Secretary atty has objections to his entire testimony because there was no disclosure of the substance of his testimony (sam obj to 2 other witnesses).

All other Defendants join the objection with an extra one that if they are going to provide "expert opinion" no proper objection.

Plaintiffs' atty: This is an objection by ambush: we gave them disclosure and they didn't say a thing.

Objection overruled ... but still no witness on the line.

So this witness is a techy and (non-practicing) lawyer who set up the website that was used to generate the declarations that were excluded by the in limine grant so it is foundation for appeal I suppose.

Correction: the name is Alcyone.

Witness: I have no idea where you got [that some of the wet ink declarations that were submitted to the court were false ...]

Where? It was Plaintiffs' counsel himself who volunteered.

* 600 submissions were received

* 120-140 were not used at all as obvious "fake" or not matches to voters or did not want to stand for the statements made in the submission

And like that the Plaintiffs rested their case-in-chief.

County called a person who was overseeing election day call center 4 Trump for Prez Inc. & she testified that she has no first-hand knowledge of any undervote or overvote & that she did not raise any issues w Sec of State. All she knows that some voters "believed" or had concerns

... about they votes not been counted.

The presentation of evidence is done. Oral arguments now.

Plaintiffs' counsel sounds like he is gonna cry. He was really rocked by Qs posed by Def counsel to last witness ...

Plaintiffs' counsel repeated that this was a "modest claim" that is not about voter fraud. Hmmm ... didn't they make a systemic failure claim?

Plaintiffs narrowed relief they had orig requested. It's clear that <200 overvote ballots are for the office of the president. 960 is the total overvote ballots for any partisan race. What Pls now want is <200 ballots be manually reviewed, if overvotes exceed margin of victory.
