At the same time Pennsylvania State Senators Chris Dush and Doug Mastriano were observing the recent revisitation of the Maricopa County, Arizona vote count, Representative Seth Grove, a Republican who chairs the State Government Committee, which oversees elections said that his committee “will not be authorizing any further audits on any previous election.”
The PA House of Representatives will not be authorizing any further audits on any previous election.

We are focused on fixing our broken election law to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat.
Grove was among the 64 Pennsylvania legislators who asked Congress to block the certification of Pennsylvnia’s electoral votes being cast for Joe Biden.

Mastriano, perhaps referencing Grove’s dismissal, said in a Facebook video streamed Thursday that he might be satisfied with something less than a statewide audit.
“I’m a bit disconcerted that someone has come out on our side, not even leaving open the idea of an audit,” Mastriano said. “I don’t know how we can get around it, but the people overwhelmingly want an audit. I think just a county or two would do. My preference would be a Democrat and a Republican county and let the chips fall where they may.”
