ARIZONA UPDATE: Maricopa County and Dominion Reply to Senate Subpoena. Refuse To Comply…

Dear Senators,

It is now August of 2021. The election of November 2020 is over. If you haven’t figured out that the election in Maricopa County was free, fair, and accurate yet, I’m not sure you ever will. The reason you haven’t finished your “audit” is because you hired people who have no experience and little understanding of how professional elections are run.

The Board has real work to do and little time to entertain this adventure in never-never land. Please finish whatever it is that you are doing and release whatever it is you are going to release. I am confident that our staff and volunteers ran the election as prescribed by federal and state law. There was no fraud, there wasn’t an injection of ballots from Asia nor was there a satellite that beamed votes into our election equipment. It’s time for all elected officials to tell the truth and stop encouraging conspiracies.

Release your report and be prepared to defend any accusations of misdeeds in court. It’s time to move on.

Sincerely,
lack Sellers /Chairman, Maricopa County Board of Supervisors

Re: _ Response to Public Record Request

Dear Mr. Langhofer:

I am responding on behalf of Dominion Voting Systems, Inc. (“Dominion”) to a July 23,
2021 letter from Senate President Karen Fann purporting to issue a “public records request” to
Dominion under the Arizona Public Records Law (“the Law”), ARS. § 39-121 et seq. Dominion
is not a public officer or public body and, therefore, has no obligation to make its records available
for public inspection. See A.RS. § 39-121 (“Public records and other matters in the custody of
any officer shall be open to inspection by any person at all times during office hours.”) (emphasis
added); see also A.R’S. § 39-121.01(A)(1) (“Officer’ means any person elected or appointed to
hold any elective or appointive office of any public body.”); A.R.S. § 39-121.01(A)(2) (defining
“Public Body”). Relatedly, Dominion’s privately-owned security keys and confidential passwords
are not “public records” subject to disclosure under the Law. See Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community v. Rogers, 168 Ariz. $31, 538-9 (1991) (discussing meaning of “public record” under
the Law, without giving any indication that public records includes the private property of a private
corporation); see also Carlson v. Pima Cty., 141 Ariz. 487, 491 (1984) (even where public records
are at issue, Law does not require disclosure of confidential material).

Accordingly, because the Law has no application, Dominion will not produce or allow
inspection of the materials requested in Senator Fann’s July 23 letter.

Regards,
John Poulos
President & CEO
