The Arizona Senate-ordered audit of Maricopa County's general election will take a one-week hiatus at the end of the week to make way for high school graduations at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix.
The plan is to move the ballots and equipment to another area of the Arizona State Fairgrounds on Friday and move back in May 23 to pick back up on May 24.
“We’ll stand aside and secure all the ballots and equipment here on the property and be ready to go when they’re finished,” said the state Senate's audit liaison Ken Bennett.
Jen Yee, assistant executive director at the Arizona State Fair and Exposition, confirmed the plan, but said nothing had been signed as of Monday.
