after seeing it in action

A GOP state senator in Arizona described the controversial vote audit in Maricopa County as "ridiculous" and an embarrassment in an interview with The New York Times on Friday.

Sen. Paul Boyer, a Republican who represents a suburb of Phoenix, told the publication that he initially supported and voted for the audit but that he regretted doing so after seeing how poorly it was being conducted.

"It makes us look like idiots," Boyer said. "Looking back, I didn't think it would be this ridiculous. It's embarrassing to be a state senator at this point."

Republicans in the state Legislature commissioned the audit, saying they were investigating whether the vote was tainted by fraud.

2. He's right. It DOES make the Arizona Republicans look like idiots.

It is difficult to imagine any other outcome when an investigation to find fraud is more riddled with fraud than anything they uncovered (which was nothing).
