Are all the Republicans who won their elections in Arizona okay with having their victories vacated?

Or, are we subscribing to that bullshit that only the races Republicans lost are rigged?

Ever wonder why Lake won’t concede? Or at least storm off on some new adventure, now that hardly anybody in Arizona (other than the conspiracy crowd) is paying attention?

Ka-ching.

Turns out election denial is a lucrative business.

Kari Lake hauls in cash nationwide​

Between the day after the Nov. 8 election she lost and the end of the year, Lake raised $2.5 million, according to an analysis by Arizona Mirror’s Jim Small. And that’s not counting the money that flowed to the nonprofit she formed in December, so that gullible supporters and easy marks across the nation can contribute.

Her biggest haul ever into her campaign fund ever came a week after the election – on Nov. 14, the day Gov. Katie Hobbs was declared the winner.

Small reports that more than 8,000 people contributed $338,388 on that day, as Lake called for donations to help her fight back against the “BS”.

The courts aren't done with his second appeal of the preliminary ruling about his first appeal regarding the sentence that hasn't been set, yet because his lawyers cited extreme hardship for him to STFU and get off the fuckin' radio and actually present his fat mug in court.

If it's this hard to get someone like Bannon into jail, just imagine what it's going to be like in the unlikely possibility that Trump is charged with something more than a parking ticket.

Top Arizona election official requests probe of Kari Lake over potential campaign violation​



Arizona’s top election official is requesting an investigation into Kari Lake, the Trump-backed GOP candidate who lost her campaign for governor in November, for a potential campaign violation over the disclosure of voter signatures.

In a letter dated Monday, Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes asks state Attorney General Kris Mayes to investigate and “take appropriate enforcement action” against Lake for potential violations of state law, citing a tweet Lake posted last week that boosts false claims of election fraud in the governor’s race.

Fontes points to “a graphic containing images of sixteen voter signatures” in Lake’s tweet, which he argued violates state law that prohibits a voter’s signature from being “accessible or reproduced by any person other than the voter.” The Washington Post first reported the letter, which Mayes' office shared with NBC News without providing further comment. Lake did not immediately respond to NBC News’ request for comment.

Lake has repeatedly boosted unsubstantiated claims of election fraud in the 2020 and 2022 elections. In a tweet posted Jan. 23, Lake claimed that 40,000 ballots didn’t match voter signatures in Arizona’s records. The tweet includes a graphic showing 16 voter signatures. “I think all the ‘Election Deniers’ out there deserve an apology,” Lake tweeted.

They're making her a martyr. Her popularity may go up.

The donations sure will.

Fine with me. She's shown that she can't win statewide which means she sucks the oxygen out of the Republican room from candidates who could. Doucy declined to run for the Senate seat. This is a good thing.

This is a better thing.
