In what should come as a surprise to absolutely no one, a judge on Saturday ruled that Kari Lake was not robbed of her right to be Arizona’s next governor.
“This Court acknowledges the anger and frustration of voters who were subjected to inconvenience and confusion at voter centers as technical problems arose during the 2022 General Election,” Maricopa County Superior Court judge Peter Thompson wrote. “But this Court’s duty is not solely to incline an ear to public outcry.
It is to subject Plaintiff’s claims and Defendants’ actions to the light of the courtroom and scrutiny of the law.”
Naturally, Lake reacted to the loss with her trademark refusal to accept reality.
“My Election Case provided the world with evidence that proves our elections are run outside of the law,” she tweeted.
“This Judge did not rule in our favor. However, for the sake of restoring faith and honesty in our elections, I will appeal his ruling.”
Or put another way, for the sake of building a hope-for political future – one that requires her to keep her supporters in a state of perpetual fury.
Here in the real world, Judge Thompson bent over backwards to give Lake her day in court.
Two days, actually, in which the judge afforded her every opportunity to prove that a Maricopa County elections officer intentionally rigged the Nov. 8 election and that as a result, Lake lost to Gov.-elect Katie Hobbs.
