			===== Arizona Senate Allegations =====
			Arizona Senate allegations arose from MC's failure to recognize the Arizona Senates Oversight Role. These allegations were investigated and reported on by the [https://www.azag.gov/sites/default/files/2025-06/2020_General_Election_Investigation_Summary.pdf Arizona Attorney General's Office 2020 General Election Investigation]. The AZ AG's inspector relied on interviews to determine Information Technology (IT) practices. Evidently, no procedures were available for the inspector's review. Documented procedures ensure consistency in operations. This governance gap is most relevant to the indeterminate findings of the investigation, which are as follows:

			Governance issues identified from [https://www.azag.gov/sites/default/files/2025-06/2020_General_Election_Investigation_Summary.pdf Arizona Attorney General's Office 2020 General Election Investigation] of Arizona Senate allegations of Maricopa County Election Department - Drop Box Collections issues. Control activities should have been in place to detect procedure violations had this attribute been applied. Instead, citizen allegations had to be brought to the attention to the Arizona Senate. In turn, the Arizona Senate had to dispatch an investigator to address the allegations. Ultimately, the AZ AG's inspector confirmed the allegations; five procedure violations had occurred. MC did not have sufficient control activities to detect internal procedure violations.
