Katie Hobbs extends lead while Republican tells Arizona to ‘get ready’ for her win

Republican Kari Lake is continuing to insist that she can claw her way back to victory, even as Democrat Katie Hobbs extends her lead in the Arizona governor’s race to 26,979 votes.

Ms Lake, the TV host turned Donald Trump ally and election denier, is now trailing, with 49.3 per cent of votes to Ms Hobbs’ 50.7 per cent – with 82 per cent of votes now reported.

It is statistically impossible for Lake to catch up.

And of all the Democratic victories, the one that warms my heart the most is Katie Hobbs' victory over Kari Lake.

No Trumpist can win in a battleground state anymore.

 

I have hope for the country again after these results

maga is a dangerous threat to our democracy and I am happy that the majority of the population have deemed it to be the plague that it is.

 

Lake way better looking

 

Based on the trends of where the remaining uncounted votes are coming from, Lake is Toast...
Boebert squeaked by...
Here's to hoping that CCM can catch up in the NV Senate Race...

 

MAGA is a threat to socialism and bottom surgeries. We get it. No need to keep harping about it.

 

Per the news source:

More than 500,000 ballots have yet to get counted across the state, with about 320,000 of those in Maricopa County, the state's most populous county that includes Phoenix. County officials are expected to update their results each evening.

It's not looking good for Lake but obviously, you are not telling the truth. It is statistically possible for Lake to win.

 

Last night Arizona's election commissioner said the results wouldn't be in until next week.

 

Buy yourself a calculator.

 

I suggest you learn to count. With 500K outstanding ballots to be counted and less than 28K votes seperate the two, that makes it statistically possible.

 

People have had too much of the election denial, and most certainly as a major issue to campaign.

 

For this to be statistically possible, the remaining votes to be counted would have to come from counties where Lake already has a lead.

This is not the case at all

 

For this to be statistically possible, the number of 500K would have to be larger than 27K. Statistically speaking. Do you understand that?

Yes, it is statiscally possible and for you to make such an absurd statement is ridiculous.

 

Looks like Arizona flushed the toilet on Bat ***** Crazy Kari. Good!

 

Lord knows, the Democratic President Joe Biden made it a successful tenant of his pitch to elect fellow Democrats and it worked. We most certainly will hear about 'election denialism' in 2024.

 

Totally...
Just like it is "Statistically Possible" for David Duke to be elected Mayor of Washington, D.C.

 

Mine too. That one is a vicious and arrogant opportunist. I am amazed that the repubs fell for her bullshit.

 

Seriously??

 

I would trade a Lake win for a CCM win straight up if I could.... The D's would have the Senate and Arizona would have a younger (??) crazier Eva Peron to deal with.... Serves em right for even making it this close...

 

Tell me you don't understand what "statistically possible / impossible" means without saying it.

 

Your retorts keep getting more and more ridiculous.
Trying to conflate the normal efforts by politicians to help their own get elected with trump's seditious big lie is embarrassing and desperate.
Is that all you learned from the midterms?

 

I’m an eternal optimist.

 

This is the detail that your simplistic analysis is missing:

(2) Secretary Katie Hobbs on Twitter: "We're getting a lot of questions about the tabulation process. Here is the order in which the counties are processing ballots. #TrustedInfo2022 https://t.co/FEtrRL0kvc" / Twitter

 

FWIW, I think this is the most likely outcome (Lake wins and Masters loses), so you might get your wish.

 

Well, he is a Democrat so it would be possible. lol

 

I didn't conflate anything, that's YOUR issue lol. I said Biden campaigned on the idea that these people are dangerous for democracy, they're gonna 'deny' the election, blah, blah blah. And people actually believed the fear porn, to the point where they said so on the exit polls. And yet, by the time they got done voting, the votes have been counted and certified.

So it seems to me, like the fear porn is just that: Consumption for as you said, votes. That's not responsible leadership but it's also not responsible voting either. So voters on both sides of the aisle: Fear porn shouldn't sell, your vote will count. Your candidate might not win, but your vote will be certified.
