PHOENIX Lisa Shacket said she needed to do it.
Despite the Arizona Democratic Party urging members not to participate in state Senate Republicans audit of the 2020 presidential vote, Shacket went ahead and volunteered to find out what would happen to her ballot.
She did a two-day stint Monday and Tuesday as an audit observer at Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

While there hasn t been much transparency from the contractors attempting to audit Maricopa County s general election results, they are shining a light on the ballots. But why?
There are theories such as the workers are searching for watermarks, yellow dots, fold marks, and certain fibers but no clear answers.
Workers hired by the Arizona Senate s main contractor, Cyber Ninjas, are shining what appears to be an ultraviolet flashlight on each ballot. This observation is based on views from the audit livestream at azaudit.org and journalists who now have access inside the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum, where the audit is happening.
