Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake has filed a motion to promptly move to the Arizona Supreme Court the appeal of the most recent verdict in her election integrity case. Lake filed the petition on Monday and is requesting that the state’s highest court hear her case, a move that the corporate media is ignoring.
This week, Lake stated that she is open to a manual recount. In response to a Twitter user who demanded a “full hand recount of all AZ ballots,” Lake responded with three simple words: “Yes. We. Do.”
Newsweek reported on the situation: “Lake was responding to a post from Cory McGarr, a conservative member-elect of the Arizona House of Representatives. In his tweet, McGarr pushed for the hand recount and said: ‘If there’s nothing to hide there’s nothing to fear.’ McGarr also tagged Abraham Hamadeh, a Lake ally and former GOP candidate for Arizona attorney general who challenged the results of his own recent election after he lost. A recent recount in that race confirmed that Hamadeh had, in fact, lost to his Democratic opponent Kris Mayes—although by a slimmer margin than the initial tally.”
Martin Walsh reported on the incident for Conservative Brief, adding that Lake filed an appeal last week after a court dismissed her allegations in a lawsuit seeking to reverse her election defeat to Hobbs, citing his reporting for further information:
Lake stated on “The Larry Elder Show” on Epoch TV that those contesting her election litigation had “picked the wrong woman to mess with” and pledged to push her case “all the way to the Supreme Court” if necessary.
“I promised when I ran for governor that I would stand up and fight for the people of Arizona every single day. And I’m still fighting for them because they’re asking me,” Lake said. “I’m not going to lie to you, I’ve had days where I just go, ‘I’m tired.’ But I can’t walk away. I can’t say to the children, ‘Good luck. I had a great life. I had freedom in America. Good luck and enjoy the communism.’”

Over 200 individuals submitted court documents documenting their frustrated efforts to vote on Election Day in Maricopa County. However, according to Judge Thompson, many of these people were still eligible to vote.
“If the ballot definitions (sizes) were changed, it stands to reason that every ballot for that particular definition printed on every machine so affected would be printed incorrectly,” Thompson wrote. “As Plaintiff’s next witness indicates, that was not the case on Election Day. In either event, Mr. Parikh acknowledged that he had no personal knowledge of any intent behind what he believes to be the error.”

Judge Thompson said that Lake’s team did not provide evidence proving voters were turned away or refused ballots on Election Day.
