Attorneys also ask the Arizona Supreme Court to slap Lake's lawyer with financial sanctions for what they say is a frivolous claim.
Howard Fischer PHOENIX — Attorneys for Katie Hobbs, Adrian Fontes and Maricopa County are urging the justices of the Arizona Supreme Court to send Kari Lake packing in her latest — and possibly last — bid to overturn the results of the 2022 gubernatorial race.
People are also reading… "Lake simply recycles the same arguments that have already been rejected by two Arizona courts," wrote Abha Khanna, who is representing the sitting governor. "This case involves Kari Lake's attempt to malign and undermine our election processes and those who administer them, sow deep-rooted distrust for our democracy, and unseat Katie Hobbs, who is our duly elected governor," Morgan told the court."Ms. Lake continues to attest that the 2022 election was stolen, which is ironic, since it is she who seeks to steal the election and usurp the people's will through judicial fiat.
Khanna told the high court they should also ignore Lake's claim that Election Day problems with printers and tabulators should require a new vote. Khanna said the justices should take notice that the Court of Appeals, hearing the same claims and evidence, concluded that it was"quite simply sheer speculation'' that the issues had any potential effect on election returns.
Morgan, representing Fontes, told the justices that Lake's misrepresentation of the record and the law justified some kind of sanctions"so others will not follow suit.''
