This is simply not true. The "audit" didn't find 57k questionable ballots. They found 57k ballots where they said there might be a good explanation but they didn't know for sure because they failed to properly investigate this.

This guy also claims that the "audit" wasn't as thorough as it could've been because the county didn't cooperate and because some evidence was removed and destroyed. This is misleading to the point of dishonesty.
Yes, the county's refusal to cooperate hindered the "audit" team. But it's clear beyond dispute that they did not seek the answers they needed elsewhere. By their own admission, they reached their conclusions without actually knowing critical details they needed.
We also don't know that any evidence was destroyed. The "audit" team claimed that many files were deleted. The county says those files were backed up and archived in accordance with the law. So we have no firm conclusions about anything.
Remember: the audit did not conclusively find any problems with the election whatsoever. It found a bunch of stuff the audit team didn't understand, and rather than use the 6 months and $6m they had to find those answers, they punted to the AG.
This is disinformation in action: find something don't understand, and rather than investigate further until you find an answer, like a professional auditor would do, just publicly proclaim it to be potentially suspicious and let people's imaginations run wild
