The games have begun in Arizona…
We have been bringing you reports on the ‘printing error‘ in Maricopa County—a place that seems to be plagued by election ‘irregularities’ every time they hold an election.
To add to the growing circus, the Arizona Governor’s race is now “too close to call”, according to leading media outlets.
In other words, we still have no idea if Kari Lake, a leading anti-establishment figure, and one of the most closely watched political contenders in the country, has won her race and this is such a huge disappointment for all of us here.
Something tells me we are going to see massive issues with this—welcome to midterm week, perhaps a midterm month.
Here are the latest developments in this nail-biting contest:

This is what we were saying from the @GOP war room Tuesday and I announced with @KariLake at her presser after voting 11/8. At noon on Election Day, at least 27% of the voting centers had one or both tabulators not functioning, some also had printer malfunctions. Terrible fail! https://t.co/1lJUrTCqLt

The Epoch Times confirmed:
With over 77 percent of the votes counted as of 10:10 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Hobbs led Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake by two-thirds of a percentage point, according to Decision Desk HQ.
“Wow. We’re going to win big. Stay tuned, Arizona!” Lake tweeted early on Wednesday afternoon, before the new batch of votes was reported.
I posted this 20 hours ago and Arizona is still only at 70%
Things really slowed down once the counts started heavily favoring Kari Lake https://t.co/jphHetvsxp

Just 1 day ago, The Associated Press reported:
Hobbs and other Democrats told supporters they were encouraged by the early returns but warned a long slog of counting was ahead.
“I have every confidence that the counties administering this election conducted a free and fair election, and their results will be accurate,” Hobbs told supporters gathered in Phoenix. “But they will take time, so prepare for a long evening and a few more days of counting.”
Mail ballots returned Tuesday or shortly before were not yet reported and will be counted in the coming days.
