FBI subpoenas election records in Arizona, expanding 2020 inquiry
The FBI subpoenaed records after the 2021 audit confirmed Biden’s win; the probe expands a criminal inquiry into alleged 2020 election irregularities in Maricopa County.
- On March 9, 2026, the FBI issued a federal grand jury subpoena for records tied to the Maricopa County 2020 audit, and Warren Petersen said the Senate complied last week, turning over materials.
- Arizona Senate Republicans hired Cyber Ninjas for a six-month Maricopa County audit of 2.1 million ballots, confirming Biden's win with a hand-count finding: Biden +360 votes.
- The audit files include 8 terabytes of data as Maricopa County officials provided digital images of ballots, and an unreleased congressional staff report on a November 2024 warehouse observation cited blank and filled absentee ballots.
- Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes said, 'The 2020 General Election in Arizona has been exhaustively reviewed. Multiple audits, court proceedings, and independent investigations-- including those pursued by members of the same political party of the President-- found no evidence of fraud sufficient to alter the outcome. These findings are not in dispute by any credible authority. The election results were certified, litigated, and affirmed', while Maricopa County officials said they had not received a subpoena and would cooperate if asked.
- Following the FBI raid in Fulton County, Georgia, investigators have expanded the probe to Arizona after a referral by Kurt Olsen, with civil-rights groups warning the DOJ seeks sensitive voter data.
