According to election officials in Maricopa County, Arizona, they will provide further updates on their ballot counting efforts on Thursday after 7pm. The election was Tuesday. Apparently, in Arizona it takes several days to count election ballots or something, and we are not supposed to think this is odd. [LINK]
As of the latest update from Arizona in the Republican primary for Governor: Kari Lake has 303,860 votes (46.25%), and Karrin Taylor-Robson has 291,843 votes (44.42%).
[LINK] Kari Lake is leading by 12,017 votes.
According to Maricopa County election officials they have counted 715,941 ballots
According to the Arizona Secretary of State office, they are reporting 698,981 votes for governor were cast in Maricopa County [402,023(R), 296,958(D)]
There are 16,968 more ballots reported from Maricopa County than votes cast for governor as reported by the Secretary of State.
Did 16,968 voters in Maricopa County cast ballots without voting for governor?
It all seems odd.
402,023(R) + 296,958(D) = Total: 698,981 votes
Three days, or more, to count ballots.
Suspicous Cat remains, well, you know….
It was TOTALLY intentional. Laura has been friends w/ billionaire Karrin for years.
When you fly on Robson’s private jet & vacation at her Colorado Ranch—you really should disclose this fact to your friends/viewers.
Stop trying to influence elections!

“There are 16,968 more ballots reported from Maricopa County than votes cast for governor as reported by the Secretary of State.
One out of 50 “spoiled ballots” would account for this. GOP poll watchers have been here on sight since the counting started.
Is it true that Maricopa has 150,000 mail in that have not been counted? If true, this is how they will steal it
Jesus
It takes time to cheat. Still crossing my fingers that MAGA will overwhelm them.
I think the Colorado paper ballot recount will show that these machines have to go, ho ho.
You can’t ‘certify’ a process you don’t understand.
The theft of the governor’s race continues. And they don’t care that we know it’s happening.
Hopefully repubs anticipated this and make the proper arrangements to catch the thief in the act.
Ummm… These are Republicans doing this.
I’m not sure why anyone ever believed the “democrats and their attorneys” statement. Maricopa county is a red county, with a red election board and a red election secretary… It ALWAYS has been.
This is the Republican party hard at work!
These aren’t Republicans pre- 1990 or 2000.
These are Republicrat$
The pursuit of wealth is not a sin in and of itself.
But is sinful when it is used to just achieve more wealth for the sake of wealth & power.
And, that describes the Republicrat$.
Wealth & Power.
Leave the synonyms and pronouns to the libs…
Like transgenderisum, calling something by another name doesn’t make it something it isn’t.
I’m looking at the Adjudication live Web Cam and these people are currently sitting around doing nothing, as if everything’s already done. Or there’s some system hiccup causing them to get delayed.
Edit: soon as I say that, they’re working again. Took them a while.
Among other ‘odd’ things that happened are, a Pima County election official responsible for training poll workers a few days ago told everyone that registered Dems could vote in GOP primaries and could be given GOP ballots. That’s actually against state law. Kari Lake & team found out and jumped all over that, a correction was ’emailed out.’ No telling how many workers actually read it.
Apparently also the AZ secretary of state and the election supervisors of Pima and Pinal counties conspired to ‘underestimate’ how many people were going to vote in person, thus polling places all over Tucson conveniently ran out of ballots for several hours in the middle of the day.
(In case you’re not familiar, Pima Co is essentially the Tucson metro area, Pinal is just to the north)
Of course, everyone knows that Kari Lake supporters are precisely the ones who, after 2020, don’t trust mail-in ballots for the ‘wrong’ candidate to be counted.
They were the ones who showed up in droves on Aug 2.
It’s pretty clear SecState Hobbs and the McCain machine (who are basically Democrat trojan horses within the GOP) tried to suppress the Lake vote and will do all they can to steal the election post facto. But it looks like their work is cut out for them. The still uncounted election-day votes will likely break heavily for Kari.
You know the dirty tricks never get old – they reuse them year after year – why do they have “to estimate ballots” needed and cut it too close (on purpose ?) – come on , costs pennies to buy a lot more than need , so why skimp? … but it never gets old because nobody calls them on it …
After they get used, dirty tricks become standard operating procedures
So they’re basically reinforcing the notion that drop off/mail in ballots lack a quick verification process. IOW, they’re ripe for fraud.
I think a voter ID should be a process similar to getting a US passport. While not perfect it would tighten up the voter roles, if that process is not also compromised as well.
Further, there should be an easy way to register your new location and thus cancel your registration by default in another district.
I remember my brothers at an Oregon frat house telling me they were getting ballots from students that hadn’t lived there for 20 years. Pathetic.
Regardless of what happens MAGA ‘is’ already the majority ‘nationwide’, and getting stronger. How bad the uni-party needs to be and how angry and numerous we need to be, in order to break through the election fraud, and return to a limited Government, Constitutional Republic, I don’t know.
Looks like they’re still scanning ballots, using a single scanning machine (fast one though). However, there’s another unused one next to it and the adjudicators are sitting idle at least half of the time due to this. If there were at least 4 machines all being used and double the amount of adjudicators this process could have been over yesterday. Just my opinion, of course. I think it’s likely due to the fact they don’t have enough computer infrastructure to handle the scanning, likely on purpose.
When you’re so behind in such an endeavor and you’re prideful in your work, you don’t call it a “wrap” at 5p.
This isn’t a %#^|€ Kevin Costner movie.
Adjudicators have all left. No scanning being done. Looks like it’s wrapped up.
Suspect the fix is being put in….such crap!
Kari Lake should and must prevail. If not, another reminder that election standards not fixed remain ripe for stealing.
No wonder the scum eating Turtle came out saying the Senate is likely to remain with the Dims. Betting parlors also have shifted odds this way. Their fix is in….
the old crow wants ( is praying ) for that result because if Rep. win back Senate it will be only because MAGA endorsed Senate candidates prevailed and then the old crow would be stuck with a lose of control over his uniparty wing ..
This is where the counting stopped yesterday:
303,860 – 291,843 = 12,017
This is where the counting is right now: 4:45pm
305,676 – 293,361 = 12,315
Another 5 or 6,000 votes counted and the net lead increased only 300 votes for Lake.
If it takes 20+ hours to count a few thousand votes, you need to get rid of machines and close it all down at midnight.
They’ve been verifying signatures.
UPDATE 5:45PM Votes in just increased by 1%
309,989 – 296,412 = 13,577
Another 4 o4 5,000 votes and Lakes lead increased roughly 1,200 votes
This is just mass psychosis!
The New Abnormal. If you repeat it enough times, people begin to believe this is normal and accept it as such.
UPDATE: 6:00pm
311,940-297,966 = 13,974
Lakes lead increased by roughly 400 votes.
Oddly, Lake has not gained any ground in Maricopa county where she is roughly 2,500 votes behind only 84% complete in Maricopa
Wish the more rural red areas of the HUGE Maricopa County would secede and form a new county!
I was thinking earlier today Phoenix shouldn’t be in the same congressional district as those other areas.
BOOM! UPDATE 6:30PM. They did it again…reversed Mojave County that was solid red and 100% complete. This is the 2nd time they did that in Mojave County. FUBAR
compare the counties on the map above to this one now…
Mojave County just went from 100% complete to 79.2% complete.
Lake now leads by 14,510 votes
UPDATE 6:50pm: Massive 5% dump at 6:50pm
Lake now owns Maricopa County and a 19,641 lead over all.
Wonder how many times we could have sang “99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall” these past few days.
The Total numbers are finally starting to move again, and Kari’s lead is growing.

They are NOT still counting ballots
They’re poring over ballots by hand, one by one, to find reasons (read:excuses) to invalidate and discard ballots for MAGA candidates
That’s a MUCH slower process than simply fanning a stack of ballots and feeding it into an electronic counting machine
And THAT’s what’s taking so long
If it walks like a duck …
here’s the result:
Voters in Maricopa County Now Reporting Their Votes Were Thrown Out and Didn’t Count
Not buying it…..only a couple of tweets
What exactly is it that you’re ‘not buying’?
Big dump from Maricopa coming at the top of the hour?
Why is some ABC hack getting results before it is publicly posted?
Lake now owns Maricopa County and a 19,641 lead over all.
Lake just got the victory Check Mark

About time !!!
Wow! I remember thinking on Tuesday night there was no way she could make up the deficit. This is awesome. 🙂
Now I only worry that the Robson supporters won’t vote for Lake in November. If they follow my rule to vote GOP on their entire ballots regardless who the candidates are it won’t be an issue, but there are voters who refuse to vote candidates they dislike. I pray Hobbs doesn’t win but I fear she will.
The thing is Lake is running against a radical leftist…I expect most of the Country Club rino’s will have to back Kari. Hobbs is a far left radical.
If I were Lake I would work very hard from now til November finding the common ground with Robson and stressing those points. She needs the Robson voters to vote for her. I think Arizona is roughly 50-50 split, Dems and Republicans.
There sure was a lot more Republicans that voted in the primaries than dems….I consider AZ a leans republican state. Kari was sounding very complimentary and diplomatic when talking about Hobbs the other day.
Heh, she spent a bit of time during the election night rally laying pretty hard into her. I wouldn’t count on that. She can, however, find common ground with Robson’s snookered voters.
Pretty sure Lake will pick up some Dem votes from one of the guys who lost the Dem Primary.
He was a Dem who supports protecting the Border and did well in the Border areas but not in the rest of the State.
A lot of his voters will probably flip for Kari when the time comes.
Robson won’t endorse KL.
If Robson has any dignity or character, she’ll back Kari and tell her voters to do the same.
At least 60,000 still left….Disgusting that it hasn’t been all counted by now. These days of counting needs to end as it increases the possibility of fraud in a big way.
Looks great for Kari if the same percentages hold in the remaining 60,000: Lake with a total 51021 lead, including her current 19641, vs 24360 more votes for Karrin.
Suck it, Mike Pence.
He had a lot of gall to endorse Robson in July of this year when Trump had endorsed Lake way back in September 2021! Pence’s endorsement was like a last-minute panic, he was probably paid handsomly by behind-the-scenes RINO powerbroker wannabes.
I think Pence was trying to use his endorsement of Robson as a bellwether to see if his influence could change an outcome that had already been foretold. If he had succeeded, we would have seen him and the GOP establishment pushing hard to get GOP Presidential primaries going in order to shoot down trump.
Can’t edit. But I also want to add, that they still might try to primary him, but this makes it much less likely.
haha. Was just about to write: Suck it Pence, and your Lackies, too.
I wonder who Pence is hanging out with these days. Maybe Paul Ryan and Bill Kristol. lol
The AP has called the Governor race for Kari Lake! It is final! YES!
Looks like a Local AZ outlet has called it for Lake.
https://www.azcentral.com/elections/results/race/2022-08-02-governor-R-AZ-3015/
Fox News is calling it for Lake.
Thx. Was wondering how long it’d take them.
AP has just called it for Lake also….
I still can’t wait to see what the final tally will be. It’ll be yuuge.
Wonder how long it will take FNC to announce the win?
Give them a day or two….
poster above said they called it.
And the kicker?
TRUMP rally tomorrow!
Waukesha , WI.
Kari should catch an early flight out and meet him on stage.
Yes!
It might help boost Tim Michels, the Trump endorsed candidate for WI governor. From looking at a couple articles, he doesn’t seem to be super MAGA like Kari. If the crowd goes wild over Kari, it sends a message to Michels.
Thank God! I don’t know if I could of voted for Karinn Robson. Everything about the woman disgusted me. Even her election night crowd of ultra rich club members. Her marrying a billionaire 35 years older also was off putting.
On Politico…
Kari Lake got the check mark at apprx 7:15pm with 89.8% completion
At apprx 7:25pm the completion% went backwards to 88.2%
https://www.politico.com/2022-election/results/arizona/
just sayn
I am So. Happy. she won. WHAT a Relief!!!!!!
If she’s half as good as I think she’ll be>>>>>> It’ll be so great to have one more fantastic State Gov. who can show Americans “how it’s done”.
Wonder how long it will be before Karrin officially concedes the race and congratulates Kari.
Probably already rehearsing a script given to her by Fox News for her next interview disparaging Kari.
per county- how many registered Republicans and how many registered Democrats?
