Arizona assistant secretary of state Allie Bones fact-checks Republican Kari Lake's claim about her opponent Democrat Katie Hobbs overseeing the vote count in Arizona's gubernatorial race. #CNN #News
Arizona official rebuts Kari Lake’s claim about vote counting
Kari “They report there is one wrong way driver on the highway? That’s wrong, I see hundreds!”
It’s great to listen to educated people having a conversation without yelling.
@Quasicrystal I think you have been living in “squeal like a pig” territory too long. You seem to be obsessed your gender, you may need to get some help with that!
@Featherless sure 😂😂😂😂😂
Educated 😂
@Hou7226
When did Lake talk about HER policies? All she did was repeat issues that BOTH sides acknowledge need to be addressed and talked sh%$ about her opponent. She brought ZERO solutions…just more trump-like comments about Democrats. THAT’S why she lost. Now Republicans are sick of her.
@An Acc
The people that voted her out said she talks too much and about the wrong things.
Let her put her allegations before a judge in a court of law if she knows she’s been defrauded. That’s the next logical step, isn’t it? She can hire Rudy or that Kraken lady if they still have their law licenses.
@MrMASH50
Your entire worldview is Chicken Little conspiracy bullshit.
The kind of things that people who are crazy AF believes.
That’s not an insult, it’s just an observation.
@Bitchslapper316 Thomas heard a number of cases involving his wife, and often provided the only dissenting vote. Definition of conflict of interest.
@jimbo Yep
@Acer Maximinus yeah crazy like landing a tin foil wrapped cage on the moon or big foot level? Tell me something to look forward to the next two years. What’s going to change in your utopia? I think I’m closer than you want to pretend that’s why you hv nothing bright to say.
@klh Go ahead and name a single case the supreme court has heard involving his wife. You’re full if it.
Now if she won she wouldn’t say it’s fixed it’s fixed 🤣🤣🤣
Trump said it was rigged in 2016 until he actually won. They all need to grow up and stop acting like brats who didn’t get their way.
Nuff Said! 👏🏾
@I reign supreme try again drone, Dems already took the Senate and the house is still up for grabs. Stay over on Fox with your alternative facts.
That’s the beauty of her madness.
@I reign supreme Why lie?
First, the public must be educated as to how the system works.
Second, there must be serious legal consequences for anyone in position of power or even a candidate who tries to subvert an election or even lies about it.
We must protect out election process. Our democracy depends on it.
P.S. Get rid of the Gerrymandering! Disenfranchisement of legal votes should be illegal!
@Antonio Johnson Trumpanzee Officials are just garbage figure that into your information tray.
@Tobias Birmingham if you’d do a little research you’d know that the problem isn’t mail in ballots. It the laws governing elections in some states, like Arizona. Look at Oregon. They only do vote by mail and they get done by election night. And the majority of states don’t have the problem AZ does. And it’s nothing new for them. But requiring people to show up at a polling station to vote would deny millions of Americans their right to vote. Including the military, like you. Or do you think it should be allowed for you and not others?
@Tobias Birmingham when Trump was elected in 2016, he won in AZ and it took a long time for all the ballots to be counted. But no one had a problem with it. When Obama was elected, no one had a problem with mail in ballots. Same with “W” and Clinton and GHW. All this BS started 2 years ago when Trump tried to get reelected. It was a just a desperate attempt to stay in power because he knew the minute he left office the investigations would begin
I feel the pain. My own brother painfully exposing his ignorance on the election proces. This is made clear by him parroting the misinformation spoon fed to him by bad actors inside his media echo chamber. I patiently provided contrasting data on how elections are actually run. This is met with resistance. He chooses to believe only what wants to believe. Evidence to the contrary, no matter how convincing, is readily dismissed.
Yes!!!!
The word “soreloser” springs to mind.
Sore loser or just lost?!
Hmmm it is “Traitor” for me.
I’m glad the counting officials are talking about their processes so the public can easily see if a politician is lying and slandering the people in charge of counting the votes
So we’re calling them counting officials now? Can’t you just say she’s the second in command at the SOS office? She reports to the person running for office. Conflict of interest much?
@T That’s how they win. Let’s see…..R up by 10,000 so do a ballot dump and keep counting the ones harvested from only D until we’re up over the margin for error. If you can’t vote in person and on election day, unless you have a valid reason other than “I don’t feel like it”, your vote should not count.
@Michael Roger You mean like Russian collusion?
@baller Like the NFL!
@Chase Me *2022* – Does your job come with comments provided?
The temptation is powerful to close our eyes and wait for the worst to pass, but history tells that for freedom to survive, it must be defended, and that if lies are to stop, they must be exposed.

Mic drop …….💙☮️🙏🇺🇸
@Sara xDouglas 👍🏽
When Tyranny becomes law, Rebellion becomes dirty…
I love when the media speaks to competent people who actually know how government works. This lady was thorough. Great job. 👍
For sure. And I would say in this case there were good questions by John King that challenge them, and just letting them give their answer. That is what journalism is supposed to be like.
Its sad to see the media program fellow americans to believe pedocrat propaganda and gaslighting.
They are slowly becoming Fox
@Ty cnn has fired half of its staff for misinformation, and has been in MANY lawsuits for misinformation and malice 😂😂😂😂 fox hasn’t. Cope
@Ty Huh?
Just like the Lady said it’s nothing new for them to announce they’re winning Kari Lake is reaching for anything she can And no one is going to change the way is done for her Period.
@Irvingstine laugh away, your opinion is meaningless, like you puesdo “facts”.
@Geraldine Hein I just did. Laughing at you right now.
@Geraldine Hein Here watch a actual progressive give you real news. And I don’t even agree with most progressives but they’re more left wing than you are by far. And I agree with almost everything he says isn’t that crazy.
https://youtu.be/cIONDwLxiac
@Irvingstine Do you get paid by the response? You know those rubles are tough to spend right now.
@Geraldine Hein Oh now I’m Russian. Lol. The cnn stooge has a thought… he doesn’t agree with me must be Russian. Dude you are a lost cause…
“They” would be complaining even if Hobbs recused herself saying her deputy is on the fraud. Doesn’t matter, always someone else to blame.
Brian Kemp did the same thing when he ran for governor in Georgia. He was Sec of State and didn’t recluse.
@Suzanne As the Secretary of state is an elected official and oversees elections, and often they probably want to get reekected, it probably happens 50 states x 0.25 reelection probability = 12-13 times per election cycle.
GOP election deniers are fascists, that’s all. They will say whatever they want to be true, no grounding in reality needed.
Even if it were a republican certifying they would just say Rino, just like with Georgia.
The GOP: Not one platform or policy to benefit Americans, but full of roadblocks for
their progress.
What progress ? Illegals pouring into our country . High gas and diesel prices . Outrageous inflation. Putting illegals in motels while our homeless vets are freezing and going hungry. Trying to take our gun rights away , that way the only ones with guns will be criminals . I wonder how you will feel when a illegal rapes and murders one of your family members . And they are doing it to American women. Oh you probably do not care. And Arizona we don’t want to hear your crying about your ranches being destroyed and animals being killed. And your fences being ripped down. You get what you deserve. You cast your vote. Deal with it . If we could have gotten the house and Senate back , you could have been helped. But you really didn’t want help to begin with. Attention is more fun right ? I see the ladies on the border talking about what a mess things are and how they are afraid of the illegals. Well you all cast your votes . Good luck .
She advertised she would do this in her campaign and in interviews.
“Will you accept the result if you lose?”
“I will win and I will accept that result.”
Sounds familiar🤔
Exactly! Just parroting Trump.
She is
She’s a complete psychopath…
Facts?!? Lake doesn’t have time for all these Facts and proper procedures! 😂
You can see how smart she is…following in 45’s footsteps. He’s doing SO WELL! 🙄
Scary Kari smart like dumptruck
@michael ouellette She has that crazy fascist / dictator confidence with great screen charisma. I’m glad she’s not out there making incorrect statements – because people like her can convince some about those false statements.
@lattelandlatteland I always thought she was like an overzealous HOA President! 🤣 You can see the crazy in her eyes!
@G.C. Gomez agreed !
@lattelandlatteland you are giving her too much credit.
This happens in GA every year. The cure is for state legislatures to change the schedule of every Secretary of State officer in the country to NOT occur in the same year the rest of the major state offices are scheduled for election. And yes, there are huge inherent conflicts of interest that occur here in GA whenever the Secretary of State’s office occurs at the same time as the Governor, the AG, and other state offices come up, but especially when the sitting Secretary of State runs for a different state office on the ballot at the end of their SOS term. That means in every single voter precinct on Election Days, the whole building is wall-to-wall signs and notices with that Secretary of State’s name on it. That kind of at-the-polls “advertising” of all other candidates in any race where the Secretary of State is competing for a different office is strictly prohibited and is a criminal offense… everywhere. Most state legislatures refuse to fix this “unfair” campaign law that helps every Secretary of State keep pushing their name recognition at the polls while voters are voting when every other opposition candidate in that race would be criminally charged if they posted their names at the polls on Election/Voting Days at the poll in the same way. But note, this happens in every single election whenever a Secretary of State runs for re-election for an additional term of office. Fairness to other candidates could cure this by placing a disclaimer notice below the Secretary of State certification signature every time he/she signs a document during election season when he signs public documents and actually list the names of all the opposing SOS candidates running to oust him/her in that Secretary of State race. Or, the DOJ could file a federal suit to force states to change the terms of office of the Secretary of State’s office so it never coincides with elections for other other statewide offices AND requires Secretaries of State to resign as Secretary of State IF they file for candidacy to run for a different statewide office. That way a temporary SOS can be appointed by the Governor to serve for the remaining term of the SOS office and the state’s governor can call for a Special Election so voters can elect someone to fill the SOS’s remaining term until a regularly scheduled election can be held. For now, however, this is just another SYSTEMIC CONFLICT OF INTEREST in almost every state across the country. So no one is lying about their state’s laws and all the candidates running for Secretary of State in any state. However, it’s clear this SYSTEMIC CONFLICT OF INTEREST must be fixed in EVERY STATE. Better than never or this will continue to be a MAGA mess issue till the end of time and/or the end of our democracy in every state.
In Arizona the individual counties are responsible for the actual vote counts, the secretary of state isn’t involved in the first place. There was nothing to recuse from.
She’s gonna have to move or wear a disguise after this is finalized. She dug a whole so deep with all her BS.
Sadly, if Trumpty Dumpty gets back in, Lake will probably find herself fighting for a cabinet position if not the VP. 😣
Dear Honorable Invisible katie hobbs, can i have all those uncounted republican ballots and unneeded fake ballots so i can heat my home this winter, it appears since the democrats have installed themselves again with the help of a few stupid voters it will be another winter i cannot afford home heating oil
@Tom Conlin making up lies because your candidate lost. Proof!
@itiswhatitis 🇺🇸 your right, so it’s up to us to keep that from happening!
*hole
“Arizonians know BS when they see it”
Indeed, it seems like a majority do! LOLOLOL
And you guys know how to avoid stepping into it. BS makes good fertilizer but it needs to decompose first.
Telling McCain supporters to “get the hell out,” tells me how smart she is.
yes, this is a surprisingly under reported issue. To Trumpers and QAnon, Mc Cain who was an HONEST conservative is an enemy. They also vilify anyone who did not vote a Trumpublican way for the impeachments, and for Jan 6.
And I pretty much was always against the policies of Liz and her father, but Liz has shown herself to be an honest opponent
Excellent MAGA strategy. Attack real republicans that have a real hero while propping up an orange bone spur draft dodger. Quit questioning why you lost, Karen.
McCain was well hated in Arizona by the time he died.
That bs that McCain was well hated
Wow…how do you claim to support our soldiers…then hate on a man who was LITERALLY A HERO?!
A POW for 5 years. During which he suffered daily torture and never gave any information. Then refused to early release from his captors because his men would not be allowed to leave also.
THAT is a leader…from any side. And for someone to disrespect his memory is disgraceful and can not call themselves American.
I’m a Democrat and i may not have agreed with his policies but John McCain was a hero to me.
There should be serious repercussions for anyone who makes false claims. Before making a claim, fact check everything or suffer the ‘legal’ consequences. Enough of talking BS because they do not like what they see/hear.
