(Document purchases made possible by all of you who donated to our fund drive for this purpose— thank you)

Lake starts by telling everyone what we already knew- the number of illegal votes case on 11/8 far exceeds the margin of victory, and on because of the *misconduct* of Maricopa County election officials, on Election Day 59% percent of precincts in Maricopa had printer or tabulator issues.
Right out of the gate they are alleging misconduct on the part of Maricopa county.

@TracyBeanzOfficial

Interesting, she is including that Hobbs as SOS participated in the CISA portal to censor the speech of Americans.

@TracyBeanzOfficial

The next allegation comes in the form of admonishment for the tabulator errors on Election Day where Republicans vote in person in a 3:1 margin, and obviously they use Richers own words at the press conference.

@TracyBeanzOfficial

They have a cyber expert who spent years testing voting machines on behalf of the same lab that certified Maricopa, who will detail how what happened on Election Day couldn’t have happened without intentional misconduct.

@TracyBeanzOfficial

Testimony by whistleblowers and witnesses with first hand knowledge will show chain of custody violations and signature verification issues which call into question the legality of over 300k votes..

@TracyBeanzOfficial

They have included a 2020 mail in ballot that had a signature match issue. In case you missed it, UncoverDC did a piece explaining the importance of signature matching, written by @AdamCarter

@TracyBeanzOfficial

Kari Lake is taking an interesting avenue on this lawsuit. She alleging misconduct by officials, AND she is stating that HER right to vote was disenfranchised, thereby skirting one potential standing issue.


@TracyBeanzOfficial

The next portion goes through applicable law; this is legal jumbo jumbo for the most part, citing applicable cases and precedent, but I wanted to include some of this for you, because so often these things are just discarded in these cases.

If there was latitude on following the law, it wouldn’t be law at all.

“Maricopa’s Outsized Ability to Dictate the Outcome of the AZ Governors Race”

Maricopa accounted for 60% of the votes in the 2022 election. The difference between Hobbs and Lake in Maricopa is greater than the difference in the margin of victory for Hobbs, which incidentally is merely 17,177 votes.

@TracyBeanzOfficial

Mail in ballots in Maricopa County were printed on Runbeck paper. UncoverDC has done a lot of reporting on Runbeck, because there are massive problems with Runbeck.

For one such article that references Maricopa County, see: https://www.uncoverdc.com/2021/10/25/fulton-county-massive-last-minute-order-of-over-1m-ballots-discovered/

@TracyBeanzOfficial

They will detail the process a vote takes here, specifically with vendor Runbeck. Drop box ballots are taken daily from drop boxes, follow a process of chain of custody, are taken to the counting center- all of this should be documented on forms, preserving the Chain of Custody. Then, a Maricopa county courier takes those ballots, swings by USPS to pick up mail in ballots, and brings them to Runbeck, where Runbeck fills out a form and scans envelopes and signatures for verification later.

@TracyBeanzOfficial

Scanned ballot signatures are electronically sent back to MCTEC, where they are compared to signatures on file, matched and approved (or not) and then they let Runbeck know which they were, so they can gather up the envelopes from approved ballots and send them back to MCTEC.

(I am sure there are never ANY mistakes made here in this cumbersome process, said no one ever)
