Senator Corman Sabotages Senator Mastriano’s Audit Efforts
Details
A typical Friday news dump in order to try to sneak his actions passed the citizens of PA! Yesterday Senator Jake Corman took steps to stop Senator Doug Mastriano from conducting a full forensic audit of the November 2020 election — he fired Senator Mastriano’s staff!! Corman said, “It is deeply disappointing that Senator Mastriano has retreated from conducting a forensic investigation of the election in Pennsylvania, and it is discouraging to realize that he was only ever interested in politics and showmanship and not actually getting things done.”
Whoa – Let’s back up a bit!! From the beginning Senator Mastriano has been the most outspoken advocate for a forensic audit. Setting things in motion by sending letters to the Philadelphia, Tioga and York counties’ election officers requesting information on the November election and giving them a July 31st deadline. Each county declined to cooperate after the PA Department of State threatened to decertify their voting machines and not provide funding to replace them if they cooperated. Issuing a subpoena was the next step Mastriano was taking and as of July 7th Senator Mastriano reported he had the votes in the Intergovernmental Operations Committee, which he chairs, to issue them. Link to Senator Mastriano’s op ed piece concerning the need for a forensic audit.
More from July 14th: Newsmax John Bachman asked Mastriano, “Senator, something we heard from Ronna McDaniel there in that statement is that they’re currently working hard for the election integrity effort, but you know, you have been the guy in Pennsylvania really leading this fight, has the RNC been responsive to your needs, have they been in communication with you, what has your communication been with them?”
“Yeah I’ve heard nothing from the RNC, from November until today, zippo, nada, niente,” Mastriano said. The state senator continued, “So I’m their pointman, potentially, for voting integrity in Pennsylvania, it’s odd that they never reached out to me. I’m very accessible, easy to find, all sorts of people get a hold of me. I’m hearing from counterparts in California and Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, but I’m not hearing from the RNC.”
Seems like it’s not just the Democrats who don’t want a forensic audit in PA, but some others also . . .
