was no way Cyber Ninjas could have achieved an accurate count to the degree which they claim. Further, nearly all of the irregularities and discrepancies alleged and supposedly supported by Cyber Ninja's audit were found by the same Republican watchdog firm to be the result of poor investigation and lack of thoroughness on the part of Cyber Ninjas. For example, Cyber Ninjas alleged that they found instances of people voting in more than one county. Nearly every instance they cited was later identified to be two different people with similar or same names and similar ages who both voted legally in their own jurisdiction.

That audit was in no way a good thing. It was a colossal waste of money to confirm a result that was already blatantly obvious given the number of recounts the state had already conducted and the number of Republican election officials who confirmed the accuracy of the results.

Cyber Ninjas got a $7M contract because they were a clearly biased party that had publicly stated views that were in keeping with what the Republican legislature hoped to "uncover". Cyber Ninjas however, was completely unprepared and unequipped to conduct such an audit. The problems with Cyber Ninja's methodology were myriad from the beginning, and there were no shortage of people proclaiming so. When it became obvious to Cyber Ninjas that they were in well over their heads, they simply made up some numbers so as not to draw suspicion, hoping everything would just go away. Unfortunately, it was too high profile an event for the numbers to go unscrutinized.

Any further audits of this nature would similarly be a waste of time and money and are absolutely asinine on their face.
