Failed Candidate for Governor Kari Lake Demands She Be Declared Winner

Source: Daily Beast

Failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake has filed a lawsuit against Maricopa County officials challenging the certification of election results.

Lake’s 70-page lawsuit calls for “an order setting aside the certified result of the 2022 Arizona gubernatorial election and declaring that Kari Lake is the winner.” Republican Lake, a fervent 2020 election denier, has vehemently claimed the election was rigged after losing by 0.6 percent to Democratic candidate Katie Hobbs.

She tweeted a photo of the lawsuit along with the caption, “LFG.” “If the process was illegitimate then so are the results. Stay tuned, folks,” she tweeted. “Furthermore, if the process was legitimate then so are the results. Let’s find out.”

The election was officially certified Tuesday after a messy process with one rural county delaying its certification in protest. A month before the election, Lake refused to say whether she’d accept the results of the election, repeatedly telling CNN anchor Dana Bash, “I’m going to win the election and I’ll accept that result.”

1. The attorney who filed this should be disbarred. Lake needs to be sued. Present your evidence

Or fuck off forever.

[JohnSJ]

2. Frivolous lawsuit. Fine her and her attorney, and throw the case out

[rpannier]

26. Isn't her attorney the same one Trump uses?

The one whose vast legal experience is pretty much confined to parking garages

After long refusing to commit to accepting the results of her race if she lost, Republican Kari Lake on Friday filed the legal challenge she's been threatening in the aftermath of losing the Arizona governor's race.

A civil complaint was filed Friday with the Maricopa County Superior Court naming Secretary of State and Democratic governor-elect Katie Hobbs, Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer, Elections Director Scott Jarrett and both the office of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors and individual members.

There are multiple falsehoods and distorted assertions included in the lawsuit that echo the failed legal challenges brought by former President Donald Trump’s team to overturn the 2020 election.

The lawsuit seeks extraordinary, unprecedented and likely unlawful relief of fully overturning the state's election and certifying her as the winner instead of Hobbs.

Lake is being represented by Bryan Blehm who previously repped the failed Cyber Ninjas effort to audit the 2020 election in Arizona, and Kurt Olsen, who reportedly talked to Trump on the day of Jan. 6 and pushed conspiracy theories to justify overturning that election...............................................

3. Kari Lake belongs in a nut house.

[mpcamb]

40. Maybe we need special court system for the delusional.

[Rebl2]

52. We have

us another narcissist.

[Harker]

4. LFG?

Lake's Frivolous Games?

Loser Files Grievance?

[MiniMe]

11. Maybe LAKE FOR GOVERNOR?

[rpannier]

27. I think it is Lake for Governor

I think it's that because she's using her campaign to challenge the results
That way she can probably use her campaign war chest to pay her legal fees, and it may also protect her from personal lawsuits. Kind of similar to the LLC companies

[Harker]

49. That would figure.

I imagine she has friends who also happen to be lawyers.

[Maeve]

35. Let it Fucking Go! (yeah, should be, but isn't)

[COL Mustard]

47. Loony Fucking Grinch

Just saw the movie the other night...tis the season and all!

53. In A Just World, She'd Be Locked Up With "Let It Go" Played In An Endless Loop nt

68. Lemme think...🤔

[Pachamama]

5. Poor Kari Lake...

[oldsoftie]

41. Thats probably the best & most accurate one I've ever seen! nt

[Corgigal]

6. Someone we all know,

is trying hard to impress that 1 candidate who’s already announced for the Republican ticket.

You know, how we already have a female V.P. So they gotta play me too, with a cartoon figure.

[ancianita]

13. Yep,

my first thought exactly.

[Wingus Dingus]

7. Oh...OK. I didn't know it worked that way, but

if you say so, Skari Flake. Just pack your bags and sit outside the governor's mansion, someone will be along to let you in shortly...

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

8. We can't do that

But we can give her a participation trophy.

[emulatorloo]

9. Good luck with that. Sore loser.

[Farmer-Rick]

51. Sore loser can't be used enough. Sore loser, sore loser, sore loser

It's what W's followers said when his Daddy's Supreme Court stole the election from Gore.

Lake and Trump are big giant sore losers. I wonder why the corporate media isn't splashing that all over the headlines or even making a fuss like they did with Gore?

[Orrex]

10. Can she be formally told to go fuck herself?

If not, I'd be happy to tell her informally.

[BlueIdaho]

12. If she keeps this up

Maybe she can end up in the gray bar hotel.

[LudwigPastorius]

14. "LFG"

...an acronym for "Lunatic Fringe Gibberish".

39. It means

Loser F*cking GOAWAY.

[sakabatou]

15. I need some cheese to go with Lake's whine.

[jmowreader]

16. I thoroughly expect...

…that come the inaugural day in Arizona, Kari Lake is gonna show up at the governor’s mansion with a U-haul full of her stuff, and she’ll show up at the ceremony, recite the oath while Katie Hobbs takes it, then claim she’s governor.

[IronLionZion]

17. It's good that Dems have expanded out map into Arizona and Georgia

and won back Trump 2016 states like Wisconsin, Michigan, PA.

The more these MAGA extremists complain about fraud in urban areas, the more I'm convinced their side must have committed fraud in rural areas.

[Javaman]

18. Sociopaths are funny like that nt

[NBachers]

19. The political Doppler effect: her political sanity grows fainter as time moves along into the future

[machoneman]

38. Oh, that's a great analogy! Mind if I use it elsewhere?

Just like the pinging of a destroyer chasing a sub, the echos become fainter as the destroyer moves away from the target. Yes, her sanity and that of TFG does get worse as time moves on. Just like TFG now demanding, in the face of another fiasco related to his second failure to return secret docs to the government, that all docs br immediately returned to him.

Losers, one and all!

[NBachers]

50. Claim it as your own.

[Takket]

20. if your house keeps getting egged, and you never do anything about it, expect to keep getting egged

as annoying as monsters like Lake are, making a name for themselves doing this crap, they will keep doing it unless it becomes unprofitable to do so. once lawyers start getting disbarred for participating in these suits, then they will stop

[NJCher]

25. This is it, right here

She is using the courts for a purpose other than to achieve justice.

[Cha]

21. I said this before.. Keep Digging,

Lake.. it's fun to watch you try to hit the bottomless pit.

[BlueTexasMan]

23. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!

Nuff said.

[AverageOldGuy]

24. So does this mean . . .

. . . that I can take a losing lottery ticket and claim that I won, hand me that $300,000,000????

[vlyons]

28. Oh lady, give it up!

She is so ridiculous.

[onetexan]

29. Another selfish attention seeker

[Lonestarblue]

30. Maybe there should be an acting award for Republicans putting on the best fake election

performance. There are several nominees, but Lake is is the running. Ornmaybe that should be the worst election denial performance.

[Maine Abu El Banat]

32. Does she have a fucking clue

How dangerous this shit is? 😳

[tavernier]

33. Reminds me of Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction

I hope Hobbs takes care in the shower!

[twodogsbarking]

34. Give her an attendance trophy.

[Bengus81]

36. Why not?? Demanding to be declared the winner has worked so well for Trump

[twodogsbarking]

37. She's just like Trump except with smaller boobs.

[oldsoftie]

42. She's not seeking attention. Or the Office. She's learned from the best; She's after CASH

Claim fraud as loudly as possible, file BS lawsuits; and then tell all your supporters that "its going to take some time and a lot of money. Be a part of the VICTORY!"
Then watch the money roll in
Right from Trumps 2020 playbook; he made over 200 million from this.

[pfitz59]

44. I'm sure she has a 'victory fund'

With 'recurring donation' in small print on the donation website.

[oldsoftie]

61. As sure as the sun will rise in the morning!

[AllaN01Bear]

43. you lost lady, give it up.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

46. I demand I be made King of Prussia!

[Ray Bruns]

54. I demand that I be made the king of Duloc!

70 pages. Good Grief.

[area51]

48. Your 15 minutes of fame are up, Krazy Lake.

Best get your tuckus over to Merde A Loco and beg for that VP slot.

[FlyingPiggy]

55. They keep doubling tripling down as if it works. Idiots.

But as long as they keep doing this, they’ll continue to lose. And I’m all for that.

[oldsoftie]

62. Oh, it works for them all right. They'll raise a ton of money!

And thats what its really about.

[patphil]

56. I think she should be declared whiner of the 2022 Arizona gubernatorial election.

It suits her personality to be the whining candidate; soooo very republican!

57. In this age

Almost no chance is concerning. In very rare circumstances, things like this can be successful. Be vigilant.

[iluvtennis]

58. She's a crazy ass fraud just like tfg.

[The Jungle 1]

59. Yo piss puddle

Stop crying and clean up yer face yer a mess. Then shut up and go home. Loser.
Wonder why she hates democracy?

[whistler162]

60. I doubt she will even get a chicken dinner

from Guy Fiero!

[generalbetrayus]

63. Is narcissism the official state mental health condition

in Arizona?

[cab67]

64. She and her orange pal remind me of sovereign citizens.

I sometimes watch YouTube videos of these clowns who argue that they don’t need drivers licenses for all sorts of looney reasons. I think I watch just to remind myself I’m not actually the stupidest person alive.

They always take their claims to court, and they never succeed. And they learn nothing from their repeated failure.
