Despite a social media claim, a video does not show officials in Maricopa County, Arizona, 'illegally breaking into' election machines. The video shows routine, pre-election preparations, county officials said.
"New video evidence of Maricopa election officials illegally breaking into sealed election machines after they were tested, reprogramming memory cards, and reinstalling them," said text on the video.
The video shows people moving around in a room that contains voting machines, but it’s not clear from the footage what they are doing. Text under the video says,"59% of these machines would shut down on election day in GOP areas. They’ve been caught."
