Not, but Karen Lake is still demanding to speak with the manager.

The Lake loss(fraud) is not the only election being challenged in the AZ. courts.

Legal argument by Dem election superlawyer will aid GOP challenge, 'upend' Arizona AG race: Hamadeh

GOP nominee Abe Hamadeh fell just 280 votes short of winning, but at least 1,200 provisional ballots cast by high-propensity voters were "erroneously rejected," calculates state's former assistant attorney general.

You are crazy to think I care about your and other opinions. There is that, troll.

Who said I think you care, FruitLoops??

 

[Lastamender]

They don’t tell “good stories”

They tell ridiculous conspiracies that make them look like idiots
But they keep spreading them

And your ilk just plain lie. And get caught and act like it never happened. Do not talk to me about spreading propaganda. That is the only reason you are here. To do just that.

She has been with Bannon for a couple of years. Where have you been?

 

[Skylar]

What does that say about the courts?

That they don't have much use for your conspiracies, speculation, and rampant imagination in place of actual evidence?

That they follow the *actual* law rather whatever you imagine the law to be?

Remember......you just making shit up isn't a legal argument.

Clearly not following irrelevant podcasters.

Waaaaaaa..........

Says they're fair and just and don't tolerate false claims made in them.

Waaaaaaa..........

Jeber's dude, some of us are trying to eat lunch.

Despite all the frantic fake news by the fringe Right-wing election deniers..it's clear that Lake had no case to begin with and is headed for the inevitable defeat all sane people knew was coming:

Kari Lake wraps up trial with no clear evidence to overturn election

Lake's team needed to meet the high bar set by a Maricopa County judge, suggesting Arizona is likely to certify the election results soon.

www.newsweek.com

Kari Lake, former candidate for Arizona governor, closed her two-day election trial on Thursday in what is anticipated to be a disappointing ruling for the Republican.
Lake, who was among the most prominent voices promoting former President Donald Trump's election fraud claims, spent two days making the case that she was the rightful winner of November's election. She lost to Democrat Katie Hobbs by more than 17,000 votes but asked a Maricopa County Superior Court judge to declare her Arizona's next governor or order a revote in the state's most populous county.
Judge Peter Thompson dismissed eight of her claims and narrowed the two he allowed to go forward. Lake's legal team can't just prove that there was fraud in the election, they must establish that someone intentionally interfered and that the result changed because of it.
Former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani told Newsweek that Lake's lawsuit is so "frivolous on its face," he's surprised Thompson didn't dismiss it entirely.
On one claim, Lake had to prove that a Maricopa County election official purposely caused ballot printers to malfunction to sway the election. In the other, she had to prove that an employee contracted by the elections department intentionally added completed ballots without following the proper procedures.
The county has disputed the second allegation, contending that while there were printer issues as raised in the first claim, they did not prevent voters from casting their ballots.
David Schultz, election law expert and professor at Hamline University, told Newsweek that for Lake to win, she needs to show that the fraud in question was at "such a level that the results of the election could not be trusted."
"I do not believe she has shown that," he said. "Her legal team has failed to show any intentionality and they have failed to show that any mistakes made were so serious that they cost her the election."
Although Lake promised to unveil bombshell revelations that proved she won the election, evidence presented in the two-day trial was lackluster and didn't appear to meet the standards set by Thompson.
Rahmani said aside from the fact that Lake didn't present any evidence proving intentional printer interference or evidence that ballot chain of custody was violated, "Mere conclusionary allegations aren't enough."
"The law requires actual evidence of intentional wrongdoing," Rahmani explained. "At worst, election officials made a mistake in printing the ballots, but those mistaken ballots were still counted. That type of harmless error is not enough to meet the high bar necessary to overturn an election."
Norm Eisen, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, agreed that the testimony from the trial "made clear" that Lake's claims were "hypothetical & speculative."
Eisen pointed out while Lake's witnesses made the argument that larger ballots caused tabulator issues, it wasn't enough to stand as "evidence of actual, intentional or uncounted votes."
"Today's hearing didn't go well AT ALL for Kari Lake but if you just read her Tweets, you'd think she's on the verge of winning!" he tweeted after the first day of trial on Wednesday. "In reality, even her own expert conceded that the ballots got counted."

Evidence that the Arizona swamp is deeper than we knew. In one way ... bad news for Lake. In another way ... good news to the Arizona voters, who's votes were robbed right out from under them. Now that the corruption has been made super clear, maybe they can come up with a way to clean up the cesspool that is Maricopa County. I wish them the best.

So anyone that doesn't ape the conspiracy....becomes part of the conspiracy?

Well, that's original.

Lake lost because she ran a shit campaign.

 

[whitehall]

There was no clear evidence that justified the two Trump impeachment but lefties worry about Kari Lake. WTF?

They do not allow actual evidence.

Lake couldn't prove there was election fraud in a court of law. Actually, 3 courts.

You have no chance at all.

LOLOL

What "actual evidence" didn't they allow?
