Many Arizona Republicans are still clinging to 2020 election fraud falsehoods, refusing to acknowledge their candidates lost and resisting attempts to lessen the extreme divisions in the state.

While Democrats narrowly swept key statewide offices, Republicans maintained vulnerable one-vote advantages in the state House and Senate. Some of those lawmakers have pledged to work against Gov. Katie Hobbs, the Democrat who beat Lake by more than 17,000 votes. Before she took office, Lake supporters dubbed Hobbs the “Governor-Select,” a riff off “Governor-Elect” and a disparaging moniker intended to sow doubt about the legitimacy of her win.

House Majority Whip Rep. Teresa Martinez , who crafted the chart, said she wanted to “surround people with experience and trusted faces they already knew.” She later told The Post the plan could encourage bipartisanship by prompting members from both parties to literally cross the aisle.The midterm elections ushered in 41 freshman lawmakers at the state Capitol, one of the largest crops of new or returning members in modern history. Of those, 25 are Republicans.

That afternoon, members crammed onto the House floor for the beginning of a new session, a pomp-filled ceremony steeped in patriotism — and partisanship. Members took turns introducing themselves and their guests. State Rep. Alexander Kolodin , a new lawmaker and an The new House speaker, state Rep. Ben Toma, a traditional conservative, acknowledged the divided environment. He invited Hanna Zack Miley, a Holocaust survivor, to share her path toward reconciliation over her parents’ deaths at the hands of Nazis when she was a child. In a quiet voice, to a hushed crowd, she described opening her heart. “I can still remember the lifting of that dark weight as I gave that weight to Him,” she said.

Yet there were Republicans that won on the same ballot.

They will keep claiming fraud until the money stops coming in. Wake up gullible AZ.

That's because even their lying a false claims they still can't win, not even in court with their own judge's!

Nobody saying these people are Einstein's. Pretty obvious when you've bought this far into the conspiracy nonsense that you're far from being the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Arizona is corrupt with Voter Fraud just like Pennsylvania and both have a History of Voter Fraud

Please.. It was a sham..Had my doubts about 2020 but this was really bad.

I live in AZ. I have a problem with universal mail-in ballots. Let’s say I have a family of 4 and I check the mail & I see 4 ballots. What stops me from filling all 4 ballots & mailing them? Signatures are easily forged & I doubt they’re doing deep forensic’s analysis

As children we ridiculed people like this as “sore losers,” and mocked them.

Fake news, all opinion.

They can continue to double down on this while they watch Democrats win. How many losses will it take for them to become a serious political party again?

they only say fraud to the public where there is no penalty for lying. when in court, they say something entirely differently.

Kari Lake case is still ongoing.... Lets see what happens.... I think she will finally PROVE the Fraud.... Get ready to eat Crow....

the sheriff tried to kill the neighborhood watch capt in coos county Or because he called him out for aiding & abetting the local white crime syndicate & the FBI bust the count jail for torturing people until they sign papers they R guilty of false charges, SORRY we need guns!

It’s not so much the loss as the 1 week of counting I think.

Republicans in Disarray

Whiners with guns.

So if they lose, it must be fraud?

Yes, they tend not to shamelessly claim fraud when they win. More top-notch reporting on the Republican mindset.

Imagine if this was your favorite sports team. 🤯

This thread shows me who to block.

Are finding out how complicit WP was in spreading fake Russia propaganda, basing it off H68.. You'll never be believed again

There is no question that using the courts to change election law and AGs and election officials illegally changing election law for mail in voting affected the outcome of the election.

Ahem

Many Democrats, pundits and media are still clinging to 2016 election Russiagate falsehoods, refusing to acknowledge their candidate lost and resisting attempts to lessen the extreme divisions in the country.

The AZGOP is out of their god damned minds

Except for the cheating which means you are wrong.

This is what children do, lie to themselves even though they know in their minds they lost. Time for these people to grow up.

We r not going away!

Bipartisan stealth campaign of electoral manipulation to save the election for the Uniparty. Time magazine. And this is what they were willing to admit to.
