2024 Notice, 2026 Record

This film is a follow-up, not a new accusation.

In 2024, speakers at the July 24 and November 6 Board of Supervisors meetings handed up cease-and-desist papers and a notice to comply.

In 2026 the comments are being preserved so the Board, the Secretary of State, the County Attorney, and the Sheriff can still see what was said — and what was asked.

The questions were not vague. Speakers pointed to A.R.S. § 16-442, the statute that requires voting systems used in Arizona elections to meet specified certification requirements.

They asked whether every component had been certified by an accredited laboratory.

They asked who maintains the tabulators, who documents periodic inspection, and whether a vendor sitting in the room is the same thing as an independent check.

One speaker described a tour of the MCTEC operation and said he was told machines were dusted when they got dusty.

Another said the people, not the machines, should count the votes at the precinct before the ballots leave.

Those are claims of the speakers. Arizona election authorities maintain that the equipment used here is subject to state and federal certification and to pre-election logic-and-accuracy testing.

This post does not pretend the notices settled that fight. It records that the fight was put on the official clock.

The video also strings together older remarks by public officials and others about electronic voting: remote-access software, machines researchers have shown can be breached in a test setting, vendors that resist independent security review.

Hear those clips in the speakers’ own words.

Then separate a laboratory demonstration from a certified claim that a particular Maricopa contest was altered.

The first is a warning about design.

The second requires evidence.

What the Board still owes the public is the same list this site keeps asking on cameras and on elections: what system is in use, who certified it, who can touch it, what the maintenance log shows, and whether a human-readable paper ballot can be counted by people when the machine is in dispute.

Samuel Adams called a vote one of the most solemn trusts in human society — accountable to God and country.

The oath of office is the other half of that trust.

“Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”
— 2 Corinthians 3:17

Watch the record.

Read § 16-442.

Ask the Board for the certification file and the maintenance file.

The notices from 2024 do not expire because a new election cycle began.

The Constitution is not a tool for the powerful.

It is a limit on them.
