In Arizona, bombshell new evidence of Maricopa County election wrongdoing
January 24, 2023
Maricopa County is the most populated part of Arizona. When it comes to local government, it’s strongly conservative. However, abruptly and surprisingly, in both 2020 and 2022, Maricopa County suddenly started voting Democrat. The courts shut down 2020 election challenges, but gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake is fighting the good fight for the 2022 election—and today she released bombshell information about voting machine problems and bizarre signature analyses. If a judge accepts this data, it shows an election-changing pattern of suppressing Republican votes and overcounting Democrat votes.
Maricopa County had 4,420,568 residents according to the 2020 census, making it the fourth most populous county in America, with over 60% of Arizona’s total population. Historically, it’s been a consistently conservative county. Before 2020, the county voted for every Republican presidential candidate going back to Eisenhower’s first run.
In 2022, the voter registration balance in Maricopa County was 34.5% Other/Independent (which often means conservatives disgusted with the Republican party), 34.3% Republican, 30.4% Democrat, and 0.9% Libertarian. Moreover, if county elections are anything to go by, it’s the Republicans who show up. At least since the year 2000, four of the five members of the Maricopa County board of supervisors have been Republican.
In 2020, bizarrely, this heavily Republican county, one in which the Republicans regularly showed up to vote, suddenly elected the newly radicalized Joe Biden over Donald Trump. This was a little strange when you consider that the voters generally preferred Republican candidates in the same election. However, judges were hostile to reports of cheating, as well as to any recount, so claims of election malfeasance went nowhere.
In 2022, the formerly Republican county again chose a Democrat over a Republican, throwing its votes behind Katie Hobbs over Kari Lake for Governor. Or did it?
Kari Lake filed suit alleging that election wrongdoing in Maricopa made the difference between winning and losing the race. What happens in Maricopa matters because Lake allegedly lost all of Arizona by a hair over 17,000 votes. Significant wrongdoing in Maricopa should invalidate the whole election. So far, the judge hasn’t yet tossed the case—and, after today’s bombshells, he may not be able to do so, no matter how much he wants to.
Shelby Bush, who is the Chairman of We the People AZ Alliance PC and the Maricopa County Republican Committee Vice Chair, reported to the Arizona Senate Elections Committee that a review of the system log files from the tabulators in Maricopa on election day, which the county finally returned in response to a FOIA request, revealed that nearly a quarter-million ballots were misread:

That’s a staggering number of misreadings, showing that the machines were failing at a spectacular rate. In addition, testimony established that the potential for fraudulent mail-in ballots was extremely high because 10% of the absentee ballot signatures were manifestly mismatched. Despite that, the ballots were counted anyway:
This tweet highlights just some of the signatures that were passed as “matches” in order to allow 40,000 ballots to be counted, despite their failing to meet the minimum prerequisites for counting them:
Put that evidence together (and well as prior evidence of wrongdoing in Maricopa), and you see a voting system that canceled out in-person votes (which living, real, registered Republicans prefer) and overcounted mail-in ballots (which can come from anybody or nobody, and which are almost entirely Democrat in nature).
If Shakespeare were alive, he wouldn’t be writing “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.” Instead, he’d undoubtedly say, “Something is rotten in the state of Arizona” or “in the County of Maricopa.” Now we’ll see whether that rot extends to the state judiciary or not. Given my low opinion of judges, I am, sadly, not optimistic. Kari Lake, however, still has hope:

(VIDEO) Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers Responds To Maricopa County And RINO Stephen Richer’s Election Law Reform Proposals To Extend Early Voting, Push AZ Toward Open Primaries And Ranked-Choice Voting
By Jordan Conradson
Published January 19, 2023 at 8:20pm
Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers joined Grand Stinchfield on Real America’s Voice yesterday to give updates on Arizona’s fraudulent Midterm Election and the newly proposed recommendations by Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer.
The Gateway Pundit reported that Kari Lake filed an appeal against Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson’s dismissal of her lawsuit, and a conference was scheduled for conference on February 1.
Lake recently told Steve Bannon, “We know they stole the election, and we have more evidence coming forth.”
As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, Recorder Stephen Richer published twelve proposed election reform laws last week with suggestions for Arizona Legislators “to make meaningful improvements” to Arizona’s elections, including open primary elections and extended early voting.
We The People AZ Alliance Chairman and Maricopa County Republican Committee (MCRC) First Vice Chair Shelby Busch and MCRC Chairman Craig Berland released a statement on Richer’s “disastrous election ‘plan,’” highlighting the issues and concerns held by voters and the MCRC.
These dangerous proposals will leave Arizona’s elections forever compromised.
State Senator Rogers joined Stinchfield Tonight on Wednesday to share her thoughts on the situation in Arizona.
Watch below:
Stinchfield: This plan that they’re pushing in Maricopa County, how dangerous is this for the people, not just of Arizona, but the entire nation?
Rogers: Well, I think they’ve got a two-prong approach. I think it’s an attempt to look good optic-wise because they’re doing something, and I think the substance of it is problematic. And so, We The People Arizona Alliance took a close look at it, and as you saw, it had several problems with it. We put this out on Twitter, and it’s had just, I think, a couple hundred thousand hits. They want to expand early voting. They want to open the chain of custody further by allowing multiple pickups of late-earlies, they want the Recorder to be a nonpartisan office; right now, you have to say if you’re Republican or Democrat when you run for Recorder, and of course, they want to allow Democrats to vote in a Republican primary for President. So these are all loosening of strictures, if you will, with what is already problematic. And I think the lawsuit for Kari Lake is going to show when it reaches the Court of Appeals, a lot of our problems.
Stinchfield: Early voting now expanded, it’s 27 days now. They want to basically expand it to 30 days. I’m okay with a little early voting. I think in Texas, we do it for two weeks, and it’s been going that way for a long time, and we figured out a good way to do it. I’m okay with that. But, it’s not voting season. I mean, it should have been election day, really, in a perfect world, but 30 days to vote? This just opens it up for all kinds of craziness.
Rogers: Well, you’re absolutely right. And, of course, election day, when a lot of us vote, was what was problematic to the extent that there were long lines at so many of the so-called Republican locations. And it’s as though, they knew we were coming, and they knew that they had to follow that up to disenfranchise voters, and of course, Kari Lake’s lawsuit put ten counts forward, eight of which were struck, and only two of which were heard at the Superior Court level. And now she’s going to the Appeals Court. There are three judges there, and if it is turned down there or dismissed, then ultimately, we already realize that it will be decided at the Arizona Supreme Court.
Stinchfield: I’m sure that’s probably where it’s headed. I hope it gets there because something needs to be done. I mean, I believe that Kari Lake had this election stolen from her, just as President Trump did. This idea about changing who can vote in the primaries. I mean, I never liked the idea of open primaries. If you’re a member of the Republican Party, you vote in a Republican primary, Democrat Party vote in the Democrat primary, it’s that simple. They want to do this in a rank choice voting kind of style the way Alaska did. That caused all kinds of problems for Republicans, of course, which is all by design. Can a county do that without the state approving it?
Rogers: To my knowledge, i

Kari Lake bombshell: Freedom of information request reveals some 200k FAILED votes occurred on election day in AZ
Wednesday, January 25, 2023
by: JD Heyes
(Natural News) Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake refuses to concede to now-appointed Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs because she keeps finding evidence that the election was a hot mess and likely skewed the outcome.
Her latest discovery, thanks to a freedom of information request: Some 200,000 votes in Maricopa County, which skews red, were not properly tabulated and actually failed.
“Officials sabotaged Election Day. On November 8th (when 75% of votes were for @KariLake) nearly 1/4 of a MILLION voting attempts FAILED, according to the system log files that were obtained via FOIA. This is huge, folks. Huge,” she tweeted on Monday.
The Kari Lake War Room added in another tweet: “Shelby Bush confirms after reviewing the system log files from the tabulators on election day, nearly a quarter-million ballots were misread. With 446 tabulators across the county, there’s no doubt the integrity of the election in Maricopa County was compromised.”

Lake also updated supporters that she has filed a new lawsuit challenging the results of the obviously fraudulent election, which she ‘lost’ by about 17,000 votes; Hobbs was in charge of overseeing statewide elections in her previous job as secretary of state.
Now, however, Hobbs is moving to shut down the lawsuit because, as Lake notes, Hobbs knows that her ‘victory’ is illegitimate.
“Yesterday, @katiehobbs filed to get our lawsuit thrown out. Today, records revealed nearly a quarter of a million ballots were rejected on Election Day in Maricopa County in a race that came down to just 17K votes. She’s illegitimate & she knows it. More evidence to come,” Lake tweeted.
But there’s more: Lake’s team also found evidence that nearly 40,000 ballots were not legally counted.
“Today’s Senate Testimony CONFIRMS nearly 40,000 ballots illegally counted (10% of the signatures reviewed). I think all the ‘Election Deniers’ out there deserve an apology,” she noted of the “bombshell discovery” this week.
In a tweet poll published this week, Anthony DeWitt asked if the public believes Kari Lake’s race for Arizona Governor was stolen from her. He said, “This is a serious poll. I want to see how many people believe that the 2022 Arizona Governor’s election was stolen from Kari Lake.” The results so far show that 91.1 percent believe the election was stolen, 3.6 percent are unsure, and 5.2 percent believe it was a fair election.
Last week, Lake addressed rumors that she was planning to run for the U.S. Senate after a survey found that she likely could win.
“I’m told Kari Lake is considering running for the US Senate seat held by Kyrsten Sinema in 2024,” CNN political reporter Kate Sullivan posted on Twitter.
In a statement to the Becker News, Lake’s campaign said, “Kari is hyper-focused on winning her court case as she is the duly elected Governor and her Election Case proves that.” Lake is currently attempting to legally address November election issues she says cost her a victory against then-Democratic Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, who was sworn in as Arizona’s new governor earlier this month.
“It is true that dozens of people have reached out to Kari suggesting she run for US Senate,” the campaign’s statement continued. “There have been several polls showing she is the strongest candidate and could win. The corruption in DC is as bad as it is in AZ and we need to root out that corruption, but Kari’s focus is on her election case and saving the good people of Arizona from a fraud named Katie Hobbs who is dead set on destroying State 48.”

If the judge or another one becomes too afraid to hear her case, that is reals suppression of information.

Ranked voting is unfair at the core. We saw Alaska elected Lisa Murkowski even though she initially got fewer votes than her opponent.

If that happens, the judge should recluse themselves and let another judge step in to continue the case.

Yep. Ranked (rigged) voting is totally unfair. And you don't know the results until days or even weeks later after they've figured out an algorithm to ensure the party they want to win actually wins.
It's rotten to the core.

Whistleblower Ivory Hecker: Fox News Is “Hiding Some Dirty Secrets About How Corrupt Elections Are”
BY JD RUCKER
January 29, 2023
Independent journalist Ivory Hecker made waves when she quit her job with a Fox News affiliate live on-air in 2021. She worked with Project Veritas to expose massive corruption, propaganda, and gaslighting by corporate media. Then, she went out on her own to bring real journalism to the world.
On today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show, I was joined by Hecker to discuss what’s been happening since then, her plans for the future, and what she believes to be the most pressing issues in America today that corporate media refuses to cover. I was expecting her answer to be something associated with globalism, Covid-19, or any of the other major topics that she’s been covering on her show, but her response was both instant and unexpected.
“Oh, a huge one is elections. And that’s something that Fox was censoring as well, oddly enough. You would think, you know, Fox was all about election integrity, but they’re not. And they were really slick with their little tightrope that they walked like, ‘Ooh, we care about elections.’
“No, you don’t. They’re hiding some dirty secrets about how corrupt elections are. And I was one of the reporters on the ground getting the evidence sent to me from sources looking and verifying, saying, ‘yep, this is exactly the truth about some serious anomalies on the election’ that we’re not allowed to talk about.
“Fox shutting it down, saying ‘Ivory, we’re not gonna look at that. Let’s find anything else for you to cover but this huge election anomaly.’ And so we’re seeing blatant censorship and gaslighting from all outlets, definitely including Fox. And so when you see that censorship from the left and the right outlets, you realize that we’re in a really scary place.
“Elections are not secure. They’re not really getting more secure because there is a collusion between the government entities who put on these elections and the media hiding what’s really going on. And so we need to be very alert to this. The fact that Dominion is still used in so many states despite last May, the cybersecurity and infrastructure security agency put out a report on how just horrific Dominion is. Our own federal agency on cybersecurity said, ‘yeah, these machines are not secure.’ We’re getting all the evidence. The state of Texas banned Dominion in 2019. Thank God one state did, but there’s still like, what, 16 states or something that still use it, and that’s just one machine company.
“Most of these voting machine companies have big issues. And then you go to mail-in, and that’s another issue. And the security of elections is not being addressed. We are being gaslit like none other. And if our vote does not count, the future of our country is in serious jeopardy. We look at the guy who’s sitting in office as president right now, and if you look at the details of how that happened and how many millions more votes he got than Obama and Trump. The fact that Trump got millions and millions more votes than he got in 2016, yet, Biden destroys Trump’s record, destroys Obama’s record. Gets more votes than anyone in history, yet has no fans. Biden’s first visit to Houston that I covered days after being inaugurated, and he had no supporters at his visit as a brand new president with the most votes in history.
“Zero supporters showed up to clap for Biden when he walked into Houston, but there were protestors and Houston’s a blue city. So what’s really going on? Elections are huge.”
Until more people like Ivory Hecker stand up and acknowledge the massive, widespread voter fraud that has plagued at least the last two elections, we will not have a proper Constitutional republic. Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our nation’s representative government.
