“I hate to be a naysayer here, but from what I’m reading her experience is 20 years as a news anchor and 8 years as a loser of elections”

You nailed it. She is an exceptionally lousy candidate. Winning a statewide election in AZ is an exercise in building coalitions. She was quite adept at subtracting rather than adding.
She began by telling the McCain faction of the AZ GOP to go to hell. That was a great applause line for her base but immediately alienated ~20% of the AZ electorate. During the 2024 GOP primary, she called her primary opponent (elected GOP sheriff Mark Lamb) a “coward”. That resulted in 14 other GOP sheriffs calling on her to apologize.
Many of the disgruntled AZ GOP voters were fine with voting for Trump but couldn’t stomach voting for Lake. Too bad, because AZ is now stuck with two loony Dems for the next 4-6 years. Remember, as recently as 2012 she was a supporter and contributor to Barack Obama.
It would be wonderful if this loser would just fade away once and for all.
Kari Lake is a great patriot and American. Unlike some unfortunate squish Freepers and trolls.
If you think she lost these elections …well that’s just silly.
