Mastriano has nevertheless argued that a more comprehensive probe involving the examination of equipment was needed.
Earlier this month, he launched his "forensic investigation," starting with requests to Tioga, Philadelphia and York counties for access to their voting machines.
Tioga's three Republican commissioners have said they cannot comply, citing the likely cost to replace its machines. While Philadelphia has not commented on the matter, the Democratic stronghold is also expected to deny Mastriano's request.
At a meeting on Wednesday, York County Commissioner Julie Wheeler said a letter had been sent to Mastriano seeking clarity on various issues, including what audit firm would be used and who would pay for it.
Wheeler warned that replacing all York's voting equipment would cost more than $2.7 million, and said that "if there is support for a forensic analysis at the state level, it seems that all counties should be included" rather than just the current three.
sure, intelligent republicans also don't want these stupid biased audits because it will cost them money to pander to these election denying morons. duh its not "democrats" fighting the stupidity. duh
