Editor’s Commentary: It’s impossible for me to separate my firm belief the midterm election was stolen in Arizona and other states based partially on the fact that the same states who had voter fraud problems during the 2020 election happened to be the same ones that inexplicably defied the polls again in 2022. Polls have favored Democrats in every election in modern history other than the last two. It’s conspicuous that this trend only applies to states with loose voter integrity laws and/or enforcement like Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Nevada.
The last two years have been challenging for many of us who chose not to “move on” from the stolen 2020 election. We were attacked from both sides of the political fence, which has caused many who would otherwise be vocal about the midterms being stolen to remain silent. That’s a shame, but it’s also understandable. Patriots have lost trust in the system and hope for justice to prevail.
The article below by Jack Phillips with our premium news partners at The Epoch Times gives the factual version of what’s happening in Arizona now that an inquiry has been opened into Maricopa County’s corruption. As you read it, understand that I do not dish out hope very easily. I’m generally skeptical of such things as Kabuki Theater, but this time there seems to be teeth behind the inquiry. Could Arizona be the first domino to fall in exposing massive, widespread voter fraud? Even if it can only help correct the elections in Arizona, that’s enough… but let’s hope for more. Here’s Jack’s article:
Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake proclaimed Saturday that she will become governor after the attorney general’s office demanded explanations on alleged Election Day problems in the state’s largest county.
“The way they run elections in Maricopa County is worse than in banana republics around this world,” Lake, a Republican rising star, told the Daily Mail.
Lake was responding to Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich’s office opening an inquiry (pdf) into polling issues in Maricopa County, which includes Phoenix and other cities, following ballot-tabulation issues that were confirmed by Maricopa County officials on Nov. 8. Assistant Attorney General Jennifer Wright demanded evidence turned over “on or before Maricopa County submits its official canvass to the Secretary of State.”
As of Sunday morning, Lake was trailing Democrat Secretary of State Katie Hobbs by about 18,000 votes. Last week, Hobbs declared victory in the race.
Lake, a former anchor for FOX10 in Phoenix, told the Mail that she believes “at the end of the day that this will be turned around and I don’t know what the solution will be but I still believe I will become governor, and we are going to restore honesty to our elections.”
On Nov. 17, Lake said she would be fighting in the state’s governor’s race after Hobbs declared victory.
“Now I’m busy here collecting evidence and data. Rest assured I have assembled the best and brightest legal team. And we are exploring every avenue to correct the many wrongs that have been done this past week,” she said. “I’m doing everything in my power to right these wrongs. My resolve to fight for you is higher than ever.”
Since then, Lake has posted videos from voters who say they experienced issues during Election Day.
Arizona AG Investigation
On Saturday, Assistant Attorney General Jennifer Wright wrote to Maricopa County about printer problems on Election Day, which reportedly sparked confusion among voters. Maricopa County official Bill Gates and Recorder Stephen Richer on Nov. 8 told reporters that a printer issue was to blame and told voters to place their ballots in drop boxes.
“These complaints go beyond pure speculation, but include first-hand witness accounts that raise concerns regarding Maricopa’s lawful compliance with Arizona election law,” Wright wrote. “Furthermore, statements made by both Chairman Gates and Recorder Richer, along with information Maricopa County released through official modes of communication appear to confirm potential statutory violations of title 16.”
Hobbs declared victory earlier in the week after The Associated Press and other news outlets called the race for her.
A spokesperson for her office told local media last week that she is preparing a transition team. “Our job is to find the people who are, whether they’re democrat, independent, republican, that reflect Arizona. reflect the diversity of Arizona and can help deal with some of the challenges that the administration will face,” Mike Haener, the spokesman, said.
Before the midterm elections, Hobbs faced criticism from Lake and other Republicans for not recusing herself from handling the state’s election duties. Two former Arizona secretaries of state had told Time magazine that she should have stepped away from those duties.
But Hobbs, in several interviews, said that her decision was not out of the ordinary.
“Elected secretaries of state in Arizona have overseen elections where they’re on the ballot since statehood. This has never been an issue until now,” Hobbs told CNN several weeks ago.

This whiney loser blame the refs trend is embarrassing. Take an L with at least a shred of dignity in tact.
Are you denying voter fraud? Maybe you are the loser. If you support globalism, you definitely are a loser.
Oh, another leftist that hates transparency and investigations into another one of your ‘free and fair’ ‘elections’. 🤔
I’m so surprised.
What is it that you have to hide?
Could you back up there and say that one more time but this time in English?
I swear, send a liberal to school and all he does is eat the lead pencils.
Liberals are funny little critters, when you prove them wrong with FACTS, they grab their ball and run home screaming to mommy.
We will see an honest audit done in the light of day.
I would celebrate an end to voter fraud. America deserves better. Every citizen in every country deserves liberty and freedom. Every country on the planet should maintain sovereignty and respect their citizens voice. Voter identification is not racist. Nor is it suppression. Dominion Voting systems is corrupt. We know that. Ballot harvesting is corrupt. We know that. Same day, in person voting on paper with a voter ID is demanded by freedom loving AMERICANS. Denying the recent voter fraud is destroying freedom. Globalist Autocratic billionaires do not have the right to enslave humanity. Their nefarious reasons to create a ‘NEO-SLAVERY WORKING CLASS’ is what we are facing. We must stop their nonsense immediately. Brazil is STANDING UP AGAINST GLOBALISM. Americans should follow suit.
Brazil is standing up to globalism by standing up to voter fraud. Awesome.
Brazil is not standing up to the fraud. Bolsonaro should have nullified the vote and brought in the military. I’m sure that the millions who want him to be President would have stood behind him.
The DEEP STATE goons who have infiltrated our system are not going to go quietly into that good night. They have EVERYTHING to lose. They know that turn about is a real ‘mother’… But, if we can turn this debacle around and re-establish our true American Experiment, the bureaucrats and Marxist-Globalists will be very targeted by a vengeful patriotic group of freedom loving AMERICANS. As well they should be.
Hobbs doesn’t even have lips…I never trust a person with no lips.
The problem is that Atty Gen Brnovich has been missing in action for 2 years since the 2020 election and was tossed out by voters for his incompetence and cowardice. In January he will be replaced by a Dem and this will go nowhere, unfortunately. The only reason for him to do this now is to attempt to regain some semblance of integrity. It won’t work. We know who and what he is.
She should park the moving van in front of the Governor’s mansion, then send in the fumigator’s.
your republicans keep doing this to yourselves. Give up already you lost and no one is coming to save you. Suckers all of you
Ya it was real close, 20K vote loss lets spend millions to redo this
Uniparty abounds! Long live the queen and his husband!
SHe is nuts. No way they will redo the election so where does she think 20K votes will come from.
Excellent article and I stand behind Kari Lake in every way.
