#AZAudit UPDATE:
As tabulators head back to @MaricopaVote, @RecordersOffice says
"We suspect all the machines will require recertification...We don’t know what the Senate’s contractors did with the tabulation equipment or if they even inspected all the machines." #ABC15
Says they are working on a plan to make sure machines can be used in future elections & certified under state & federal law.
"The taxpayers invested a significant amount of funding into this tabulation equipment, which is why the county hired Voting System Testing Laboratory experts to conduct the forensic audit of the equipment in February..."
"...They found no issues and confirmed the equipment was not connected to the internet. "

update via @Garrett_Archer
Before handing over election equipment, ballots @maricopacounty requested indemnification, AKA a legal shield.
Means that the county is NOT responsible financially or legally if problems occur during #AZAudit (ballots lost/ damaged, machines broken, etc).

#BREAKING: #CyberNinjas file for emergency hearing after their security plans were made public, blames court for releasing.

"Although the court had knowledge since 11:02am that the parties agreed that Exhibit D9 should be sealed... the Court released Exhibit D9 to the public."
The filing also cites #ABC15's reporting from last night on the #AZAudit and the company's security team planning for potential attack by "Antifa"
Our reporting made sure to exclude any specific security details. That includes security guard positions, and staffing levels.

We did, however, quote two lines that showed detailed discussion on the team's idea of possible attacks from "Antifa" and "militia groups".

Last night, #ABC15 reported security records were filed publicly with the Maricopa Co. Clerk of court despite agreements that it would remain sealed.

In it, a "Phoenix Law Enforcement Officers Association" was cited as providing security.

Except, no one's ever heard of them
This organization is NOT @azplea.
In fact, reps for the union tell ABC15 they don't think that union exists.
No one working with #AZAudit reached out to PLEA for any security for the coliseum.
They are not involved at all.
This organization was named separately from the Arizona Rangers, who are actively providing security for the Coliseum.

Okay, so an employee with Wake TSI, one of the subcontracting companies working in the coliseum just walked all the way into the stands from the floor, stood right in front of me and took a photo. Just me.

I have no idea why. I asked, got no response. He walked away.
My shift inside the Coliseum is up, so I've left the building.
I still don't know why this happened.
I was in my assigned area, with two security guards behind me. I am not operating the live feed you all are seeing.
I did not get a photo of this man. #azauditpool
However, I won't be intimidated for doing my job. Journalists have a right to witness what's happening inside, report and document it.

You all have a right to know what's happening.

We will continue to be present and do our jobs.

#BREAKING: #CyberNinjas releases documents on methods, procedures themselves, citing an "ongoing effort to be transparent.."

The move comes after a judge ruled those documents would be made public, denying the company's request for the court to seal them. #ABC15

AMAZON DELIVERY? Yesterday, #azauditpool reporters/ cameras spotted this... Lots of people & officials surrounding a box. Then, @BennettArizona walking off with a clearly marked Amazon box.
No idea what was inside..
He put it down at a table that looks like it handles ballot box processing. Then, someone set it down in a corner (away from other boxes) in the cage where ballots sit.
#azauditpool
Today, on the @broomheadKTAR @BennettArizona said "Yesterday...we opened a box of ballots and after they counted down several inches of ballots all of a sudden there were a bunch of papers in there that had voter names and addresses on it."

There’s a crowd outside @MaricopaVote tonight. Just formed about an hour ago or so. They’re trying to gain access inside the tabulation center and claiming to be journalists. #ABC15
At least one woman a know member of the AZ Patriots Movement, a well known valley extremist group. They’re asking questions about #SharpieGate, and whether county elections are still accepting votes.

They’re not.
They came inside at one point:
