My cell phone is blowing up, it must be primary season. Just got this one:

It goes to: https://www.lakeisfake.com/
Which is Robson, who is running #2 in the primary. As an Independent, I got to choose which primary to vote in. There weren’t really any races going on on the Dem side, so I chose R. I voted for Robson. I figure if she beats Lake, then worst case would be getting stuck with an R governor that tfg hates and doesn’t believe the Big Lie. Could be worse. Definitely voting Dem in the general though.

Using Cindy McCain as a pejorative. :fingerwag:
Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake says that Cindy McCain, who is currently representing the United States as a diplomat and had two sons serve in the US Armed Forces, "wants an end to America."

I've been really disappointed in likely Dem candidate Katie Hobbs. She has been unresponsive and hasn't even bothered going to any of the debates. I voted for Robson in the Republican primary, because if we are going to have a Republican governor, I desperately want it to be one that doesn't believe in the Big Lie, and most importantly, ISN'T KARI LAKE!

Matt Salmon did withdraw, I dunno if it is electioneering to tell people that or not though :shrug:
You can bet we'll hear more about this, should she lose. She's probably not going to lose :cry:

Neely isn't going to win the primary, much less the governorship. But it would be a hoot to see him send the National Guard to invade federal Army bases.

If Lake gets beat and cries foul, I wonder how many of her voters will sit out the general election.

It’s a horse race. Robson is performing quite well and off to a good lead. Election Day ballots will come in later though, and will likely break heavily for tfg endorsee Lake. Lake has already vowed to cry foul if she doesn’t win.

Robson is up by 35k, but we have 108k Election Day ballots, plus Pinal county and some other places still to come in, so :shrug:

I'm in NM but youtube on my phone thinks I'm in AZ. About 1 of every 3 ads is a Robson ad. I used to get a lot from Tullliani-Zen, but those stopped about a month ago.

I’ve gotten a crazy amount of text messages from Robson, as has the wife. She is dumping serious amounts of her personal fortune into her campaign.

I’m watching the returns run in from outside Maricopa County, Lake is killing it. I’m disturbed.

Robson is stubbornly holding on to her lead, but Lake is already calling it. Surprise.

Wait a second I thought the only explanation for a county to stop counting late in the night was fraud? I thought that if you're ahead on election night and somehow losing overnight that it's fraud? Are you telling me they're not consistent?

Lake edged up 2k voters over Robson, but with what is left still to count, that is basically a tie. Lake has continued to claim victory and election fraud, of course.

Here's the problem, Robson did 10 points on Lake for early vote, but Lake did 35 points on Robson for day of in-person. Most of what is left is day of drop-off, which most are inclined to suspect will favor Lake. Which is bad for the crazies not winning. But it ain't over yet!
