Episode #45: DEEP DIVE – Was the 2020 Election Stolen? Part I: Arizona

Download this episode

In this special investigative episode, to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the 2020 election, The Right Take guys take a close look at all of the circumstantial evidence – including voter attitudes towards the state of the country, as well as enthusiasm by party – that appeared to indicate President Donald Trump was supposed to win re-election in a landslide, and how numerous historical and even scientific trends – including primary performance, voter registration trends, and the performance of bellwether counties and states – were shockingly defied by the “official” results. They then analyze the findings of the only 2020 election audit that has taken place thus far: The Maricopa County audit in Arizona. They dissect the various categories of suspicious ballots that were found by the firm Cyber Ninjas, and compare and contrast the different explanations and justifications given by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, before issuing their verdicts on whether or not they think Arizona was actually stolen.
