Oh, [come fucking on](https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/goofy-az-republican-vote-audit-examining-ballots-for-bamboo-because-china-111419461691), the “vote auditors” checking the ballots in Arizona are doing “forensic testing” of the ballot material in search of bamboo fibers that would reveal fraudulent ballots shipped over from China (“the south-east corner of the world”). (sorry about the link to Rachel Maddow, but her reaction to dumbfuckery just makes it all that much better) ---

That is some stupid shit. For crying out loud, bamboo grows all over the place so bamboo fibers prove nothing. They should be looking for panda fur; that would be definitive proof that the ballots were Chinese. Or dragon scales - definitely Chinese. ---

IIRC, they’re getting kicked out of the venue they’re using in a couple weeks because it’s booked. So they’ll either have to call it a wrap or pack up all their magical watermark cameras / fold evaluators / bamboo screeners and find somewhere else to pull their shenanigans.
