Democrat Katie Hobbs is projected to win the race for governor in Arizona, defeating high-profile Republican Kari Lake after a contentious and down-to-the-wire election.

NBC News and CNN both projected the race for Hobbs on Monday night.

The victory is the latest major win for Democrats in what has turned out to be a surprisingly good midterm election for the party. While the race was always seen as competitive, Lake came out slightly ahead of Hobbs in most recent polling. The Republican also got heavy media coverage in the final weeks of the election, while Hobbs was scrutinized for refusing to debate her rival.

Yeah, I’m not really a super-big vote fraud guy like others on here, but even to me, this one really doesn’t pass the smell test.

This was an act of war.

Ugh, AZ is screwed

Where are all of the DeSaintis and NeverTrumper trolls defending Kari Lake, from this outright STEAL?

Oh, that’s right.....silent.

Back to their Uke threads, for the time being.

So, if we let them have the AZ governor's race, will they let us have the House?

Reps to Dems: "Please, pretty please. Don't take the House."

Dems to Reps: "We don't work that way. Suckers!"

i agree completly

“ This was an act of war.”

If you keep committing acts of war, over and over again, and there is no response, only meek acceptance, where your target is not even allowed to whisper of the acts, how do you think that war turns out?

Heck, now House races that had been called for the GOP seem suddenly being called for the Dems. I swear Oregon District 6 had already been won by the GOP and I see now that the Dem has won it.

You’re not alone.

I take credit for "ROBBED BY HOBBS", earlier today here..

But.. WHO COUNTED THE VOTES, RAY EPPS?

[Levy78]

The Republican is beyond repair. Josh Hawley is right, it’s dead, Jim.

So now what?

[Olog-hai]

Exactly. Think California.

In order to maintain OrangeManBad the McConnell/ Romney/ Bush/ Cheney legacy RINOs must deny plain Democrat election fraud, even if it means the RINOs lose all power.

My mother used to call it “cutting off your nose to spite your face.”

“Our Side’ never seems to stop this kind of thing even when they HAVE power.

There are few of them willing to stick their necks out.

Know what trunk music is?

That is what should happen to a few of these who did this.

After the message is sent, they’ll scatter like rats.

[miliantnutcase]

Truer words…

[Kazan]

A MAGA for starters. I'd rather have one party in the minority that loves the country and will stand principle if we are going to descend into communism anyway.

Then, secession, civil war or leave the country.

The Deep State wins.

The Deep State always wins.

You get credit then, too...☆☆
