CLAIM: Maricopa County received 74,000 more mail-in ballots than we sent.
FACTS: In Maricopa County, we allow people to vote early in two ways: 1) by mail and 2) in-person at Vote Centers. These are all considered early votes.

The people who vote in-person use ballots provided at a Vote Center. This is not a new practice, so it's not unusual that we would have more early votes than mail-in ballots sent.

In addition, the EV32 Returns & EV33 files are not the proper files to refer to for a complete accumulating of all early ballots sent and received.
CLAIM: There was potential over-voting due to ink bleeding through ballots.
FACTS: If bleed through happens, it does not cause an over-vote. Elex officials program certified tabulation equipment & design ballots w/ offset columns to ensure these ballots are counted accurately.

This accuracy is verified through logic and accuracy tests, hand counts performed by the political parties, and post-election audits performed by EAC certified voting testing laboratories. #SharpieGate has been debunked already.

MARKING YOUR BALLOT: Did you know you can use a black or blue ballpoint pen and even sharpie to mark your ballot? Even if there is bleed through it won’t impact counting because our upgraded ballots have off-centered columns and our new tabulators only read the ovals. Learn more:

Surely the number of mail-in vs early in-person votes is tracked so where are they published? Not tracking and publishing would surely make fraud easier.

That's not what they said. They said an EV32 gets filled out when a mail-in ballot is sent, and an EV33 gets filled out when a mail-in ballot is received. They said there should always be more EV32s than EV33s. And they said there were 74,243 more EV33s than EV32s. True or not?
