Republican Kari Lake is planning legal challenges to the Arizona election after her projected loss to Democrat candidate and Secretary of State Katie Hobbs. Multiple outlets called the Arizona gubernatorial race for Hobbs on Monday after nearly a week of counting ballots showed her with what is projected to be an insurmountable lead over Lake. With 99% of the vote in on Thursday, Hobbs held a roughly 17,000 vote lead over the Republican candidate. "I am still in this fight with you. For two years, I’ve been sounding the alarm about our broken election system here in Arizona and this...

Our smash and grab elections With this headline the gaslighting should die down pretty soon. Christy Smith concedes to Mike Garcia in CA27, Giving Republicans control of the House with 218 seats N.B. The gaslighting has been fast and furious. Today WE are finally seeing what has been the case for at least 72 hours as a dead-solid fact and at least 5 days as an all but waiting for the Democrat/communists to get off the floor, stop crying, and go home because you lost FACT: Patriotism won and greed and stupidity lost. WE have won the House but were...

The much-heralded FBI raid on former President Donald Trump’s South Florida compound three months ago was a literal bust — for the feds. As federal law enforcement officials tell it, Trump’s stash of classified materials at Mar-a-Lago was nothing more than souvenirs.

What was supposed to be a red tsunami last week turned out to be a ripple. It didn’t take long for the GOP establishment to place the blame: Donald Trump! It couldn’t be because Mitch McConnell decided to spend $10 million supporting the treacherous Lisa Murkowski against the state’s GOP nominee, rather than in Arizona, Georgia, or Michigan. No, it was Trump. It wasn’t Kevin McCarthy’s embarrassing attempt to recreate Newt Gingrich’s successful “Contract with America” that galvanized America and brought the GOP 54 seats in a year with 2.99% inflation, with his facile “Commitment to America”. No, it was...

If the Republican Party of Arizona and/or the campaigns for Republican Governor, Attorney General, or Secretary of State (the Senate Candidate conceded) decide to contest the results of this mid term election, their arguments should be based solely on constitutionally sound arguments that will prove multiple violations, damages, and disenfranchisements of Maricopa County voters that were outcome determinative. Outcome determinative means that the violations were so severe that they determined the outcome of an election. Article two, section twenty one of the Arizona Constitution states, “All elections shall be free and equal, and no power, civil or military, shall at...

The Kari Lake campaign for Arizona governor called for a redo of Maricopa County’s election in light of the vote tabulation machines malfunctioning in over 30 percent of polling locations on Election Day last week. The campaign posted on its official Twitter account Wednesday, “This election was irreparably compromised by voter disenfranchisement.” “The appropriate thing to do would be to let Maricopa County cast their votes again,” the Republican candidate’s team added.

The largest liberal dark money network in the United States hauled in over $1.5 billion from anonymous donors in 2021, tax records show. Arabella Advisors is a consulting firm based in Washington, D.C., that oversees five nonprofit groups bankrolling left-wing causes. The network, which has been dubbed a dark money giant due to its complex arrangement that allows donors to be shielded from the public eye, also spent almost $1 billion combined in 2021, according to the newly released tax documents for the network groups. “These latest tax returns prove that the Arabella Advisors network remains the largest dark money...

If the reader might bear with me for a moment, I’d like to tell you all a mystery story. There was once a country that was having an election. Going into this election, one party - the party in power - was unpopular, trailing in the polls, and led by a president with abysmal approval ratings and who is widely understood to be senile. This party’s policies had resulted in widespread economic damage to the nation, creating rates of inflation unseen for forty years, doubling gas prices, and harming the broad middle of the country financially. Further, this same party...

I was waiting eagerly for Trump’s Mar-A-Lago announcement tonight. After the enormous energy of the promised Red Wave, and having Trump’s election night rally end up without any announcement, and then the painful anticlimax of watching victory after victory slip away in a week of “extended counting,” (*) followed by a increasing stream of both Washington insiders and supposed grass-roots right-of-center influencers, solemnly intoning the mantra, “Trump is over. It’s his fault” I was eager to hear what The Donald would have to say. Surely he would have some choice words, and energy to rally the GOP grass roots. And...

TNT NBA analyst Charles Barkley went off on what he calls “election deniers” in the Republican Party who, according to Barkley, don’t believe an election is legitimate unless they win. Barkley appeared on CNN This Morning with hosts Don Lemon, Kaitlan Collins, and Poppy Harlow for an interview that included Kyrie Irving and the midterm election cycle. The NBA Hall of Famer told the hosts he was glad the election cycle in Arizona – one of three states where Barkley has homes – is over. Specifically, Barkley said that the “election denying” from Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake had “disappointed”...

Decision Desk HQ projects Republicans have won a majority in the U.S. House with at least 218 seats.

Monday the country was focused on what was happening in Arizona. Rather than being able to process their elections in a timely manner, the state took almost a week to declare a Democrat victory across the board. According to Gateway Pundit, Pima County dumped another batch of election day ballots Monday that favored Katie Hobbs 58.08% to 41.95% for Kari Lake. But rather than the uncounted ballots decreasing after the dump, the total number of outstanding ballots increased. This election is being rigged and stolen, just like in 2020. According to the Uplift Data tracking service, Republicans had 52.7% of...

Left-wing activist and filmmaker Michael Moore said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that Democrats will keep control of Congress in the midterms because the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. More said, “They’re not going to win next Tuesday. I know it seems like I take a minority position on this because the media is full of a lot of how the Republicans are surging and the Republicans are doing so well, and so this race we’re going to lose.”More went out on a limb to make this prediction. He was half right. The Democrats kept the Senate, but lost...

County officials in Nevada over the weekend confirmed that cameras live-streaming vote-counting areas on Wednesday night and Thursday morning went dark for a total of eight hours. “We know that our election livestream cameras went dark overnight. We investigated what happened and how to prevent it happening again,” Washoe County’s Twitter account posted Thursday afternoon. Unsurprisingly, the tweet went viral, racking up thousands of reactions, which included questions concerning election integrity. “The livestream computer application lost connection with the courtesy cameras at 11:24 p.m. the evening of November 9,” the county said on its website. “All staff had left for...

It is beginning to look like Republicans pulled the handle for Dems that drove this election. TDS Republicans is/was the problem.

With more than 7 in 10 voters stating in an exit poll last Tuesday that they were "dissatisfied" or "angry" about the way things were going in the country, Republicans were expecting a "red wave" or even a "red tsunami" in which the party would retake the House with a substantial majority and the Senate with as many as 54 or 55 seats. That didn't happen, and Republican Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri said Monday it's time to "bury" the old Republican Party and "build something new."

On Monday it was revealed that top Maricopa County election officer Stephen Richer, who helped to oversee elections in Arizona, donated to the far-left "resistance group" PatriotTakes. PatriotTakes is a hybrid pack that describes itself on Twitter as a group of "dedicated researchers monitoring and exposing right-wing extremism and other threats to democracy." ... Data available on the Federal Elections Commission's website shows that Richer donated $40.00 in July of this year. Previously, Richer had launched a PAC in 2021 to stop MAGA candidates .... Last week, during Tuesday's midterms elections, Richer was forced to apologize due to Maricopa County's...

Dave Wasserman 7:55pm, November 14th I’ve seen enough: Juan Ciscomani (R) defeats Kirsten Engel (D) in #AZ06. Dems’ path to the House majority virtually non-existent now. Some good flips today. Hopefully R's get to at least 222, which I believe is what the D's have currently.
