At least one of three counties targeted for a forensic investigation of Pennsylvania’s 2020 presidential election has said it will not allow access to its voting machines.
Pennsylvania Sen. Doug Mastriano, chair of the Intergovernmental Operations Committee, sent letters to election officials in three Pennsylvania counties, Philadelphia, York, and Tioga, requesting access to voting machines and information to be used as evidence in a forensic analysis of the 2020 election.
Tioga County Commissioners decided not to provide access after receiving a directive from the Pennsylvania Department of State ordering county boards of elections not to provide any access to third parties seeking to examine the systems or system components.
It further warned that if counties do allow access, the voting equipment will be considered no longer secure or reliable to use in future elections. The department would decertify the expensive election equipment and counties would have to buy new voting machines on their own.
“We’ve been given the directive that we cannot give access or they will decertify our machines,” Tioga County Solicitor Christopher Gabriel told the Epoch Times. “The state did two audits after the election. Nothing of significance was found.”
York and Philadelphia counties have not made their intentions public yet; each county has until July 31 to respond in writing to the request for access.
“The Intergovernmental Operations Committee has not received a formal written response indicating refusal to comply from any of the three counties who received letters from the committee,” Mastriano said Thursday in a written response to the Epoch Times. “We intend to move forward with our plan to investigate these counties.”

Something to hide?
p
Just like in Arizona, a corrupt county refuses to cooperate with an election audit. Just like in Arizona, the State needs to just do it anyway.
97.5% white
democrats
They aren't trying to find fraudulent ballots in Tioga County. More likely, they want to use it as a baseline for comparison with other counties where fraud was clearly prevalent.
Next step. I think the senate can relieve these people of their posts for insubordination.
Confiscate them
Send the State Police SIEZE Everything and ARREST ALL OF THEM of Obstruction
I wonder how many of the attempts to contact them will result in information being passed along to the DOJ and the FBI.
O Rly?
should not this be a capital offense?
Ping.
Good luck on that response from Philadelphia County.
Just like Maricopa in AZ, this county is Republican and it is Republicans refusing to cooperate like in AZ.
Interesting.
Pennsylvania Ping!

I read today that your group has refused to cooperate with any audit of the 2020 election. I don’t understand why you would refuse to do so.
I would think that you would be willing to ensure that people can clearly see if you did things by the book, which I am sure you did and have nothing to hide. Why would you refuse?
Surely, as Americans, you would want to ensure people have faith in the electoral process, right? If there was no intentional or widespread fraud or criminality, you would have no good reason to refuse…isn’t that why people elected or appointed you?
York County raises objection to Mastriano’s election audit
Tioga County (red) has said flat out: NO
York County (red) is saying: We need more info.
Classic mugwumpery.
