In 2022, Several Republican's won state-wide elections (Kimberly Yee and Tom Horne), but Kari Lake did not. For whatever reason, those who cast ballots found those Republicans the best choice for the job, but those same people did not vote for Kari Lake for office. The Canvass is clear, they either voted for her opponent, or no governor at all. This clearly could be no fault of Kari Lake, and thus, is fraud.
We have compiled the abundance the claims here. As you can see, everyone cheated in every way, all against Kari Lake. In no way Kari culpable in her loss.
Drop off voters "Muled" Multiple Ballots to drop off locations like in 2000 Mules.
Except Arizona law allows a caregiver, family member, household member, or election official to help return a voter's ballot to county election officials, including dropping off the ballot at a voting location. These categories are broadly defined (A.R.S. § 16-1005)
Further, 2000 mules did not show anybody going to more than 1 location, and used actors to act out their claims.
Mail in Voters Voted Multiple Times
Except the signatures are verified. This is in the Election Procedures Manual
The Election Procedures Manual was a Fraud itself
Except it wasn't. It's common for the manual to be updated.
Signatures Were not Validated, or Validated Fraudulently
Except this was claimed based on 2020 validation from the "Audit", where the "expert" did not know that multiple people with the same name could live at the same address, how scanning works, and held up proof that clearly had the signature in the wrong field. No Envelopes in 2022 were examined by Kari's team
The rules are set in Arizona Law, Examples of signatures come from documents including MVD records, voter registration forms, or previous early ballots. When signatures match, the ballot will be counted. If election officials have questions about the signature, they contact the voter to confirm the validity of the signature. Sometimes the voter may have to provide additional information to verify their signature. A.R.S. § 16-552.
Election Day printers were set wrong, and failed to print correctly
Printers did have issues. This was addressed by the county early on election day, and had redundancies in place in the form of Drawer 3. Ballots afflicted with this issue were counted by machine at central count, or duplicated if necessary and counted. and this is currently under investigation by the county.
A 19" Ballot Image was made and used
Except this occurred in places where shrink to fit settings were adjusted, generally while troubleshooting the toner setting. All ballots with this issue were counted, as testified under oath by Kari's team at day 2 of the trial. The county is investigating the printer issues.
Ballots that were too small were thrown out and not counted
Except all ballot handling is bipartisan, and on video for the world to see. Counts matched from voting center check in to final counts.
Ballots that were too small went in drawer 3 and not counted
Except all ballot handling is bipartisan, and on video for the world to see. Counts matched from voting center check in to final counts. Some were scanned at central tabulation, and some were duplicated by bipartisan teams under supervision to new paper, and then counted
Equipment was not verified ahead of election day
Except logic and accuracy testing occurred. Printer issues did happen, and were reported on in a timely way. The redundancy in place for printers with this issue was to put them in drawer 3 for central count to tabulate or duplicate and tabulate, adding little additional time to the process
Election Day issues were targeted against Republicans because they vote on Election Day
Election Day issues in Maricopa were distributed throughout the valley. This map produced by the Lake team clearly show they are representing areas of overall density as areas of partisan leaning coverage.
They Planned the 19" Ballot to make lines long and disenfranchise voters
The redundancy in place for printers with this issue was to put them in drawer 3 for central count to tabulate or duplicate and tabulate, adding little additional time to the process. However, Arizona GOP members were telling people to not follow directions, and scan until it works, adding to election day chaos. As always, anyone in line ahead of closing was allowed to vote no matter the time.
The Scanners were vulnerable and hacked to flip the votes
Except the hand audit matched.
People's Votes didn't show as counted
Permanent Early Voting/Active Early Voting includes ballot tracking and status updates, as does day of voting to an extent. However, While PEV/AEV is near-real time, day of voting statuses are not updated until much later in the process, people who wanted to vote on election day and check the web page status would not see their vote counted until later
It took so long that there had to be fraud
Except it always takes that long, even when Doug Ducey won. Republicans are falsely claiming that Arizona used to know final election results on Election Day Further, the past 2 cycles had record turnout of Early ballots, and Late Earlies, that the process has had to adapt to
We used to know on election night who won
The media used to project, and still does, when a win is mathematically likely or certain. This happens much faster with a larger margin for a candidate. The closer candidates in votes (and the more Purple the state), the longer the uncertainty lasts.
Steven Richer and BOS member Bill Gates cheated them
No claim on how, exactly, these 2 Republicans who followed the book, and ran the election like an election did so. The counties response to claims has been thurough and responded to all claims made with facts.
I guess you can't rebut conspiracies that come out of nowhere. However, the last AG, Mark Brnovich buried a report that discovered there was no fraud in 2020 sowing doubt in 2022, where he was on the ballot for Senate.
Republicans Failed to Fix the broken system
The Judge was against them
The appellate court was against them
OK, we really hit the bottom of the barrel here
