On Saturday, Republican-appointed Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson denied Ms Lake’s bid to challenge the result, rejecting her claim that problems with ballot printers at some polling places on election day were the result of intentional misconduct.“The Court cannot accept speculation or conjecture in place of clear and convincing evidence,” the judge said.that he won the 2020 presidential election.
While most of the other election deniers around the country conceded after losing their races in November, Ms Lake has not. Instead, she asked the judge to either declare her the winner or order a fresh vote in Maricopa County. In the ruling, the judge acknowledged the “anger and frustration” of voters who were inconvenienced in the election and noted that setting aside the results of an election “has never been done in the history of the United States.”
“But this Court’s duty is not solely to incline an ear to public outcry,” the judge continued. “It is to subject Plaintiff’s claims and Defendants’ actions to the light of the courtroom and scrutiny of the law.”
