— Stephen Richer—Maricopa Cnty Recorder (prsnl acct) (@stephen_richer) June 22, 2023

The lawsuit is by Stephen Richer, a Republican who has served as recorder of Maricopa County since 2021,

From the WaPo article in the teeet:

Quote:

---

Richer's complaint claims that, during a "Save Arizona" rally in January, Lake "falsely and with actual malice" accused Richer of sabotaging the election by misprinting ballots. Lake added that Richer and Maricopa County Supervisor Bill Gates, also a Republican, "intentionally printed the wrong image on the ballot on Election Day so that those ballots would intentionally be spit out of the tabulators."

Good luck you lying, cheating arsehole.

Remove the word intentionally from the bolded quote.

Does that change anything? If it happened even if unintentional then he's idiot for spotlighting it. If there were not bad ballots printed and given to voters then he's got a point.

He will lose that suit. He's on camera lying out of his ass.

Hope his lawyer understands anti-slapp. I know I don't - it can get mind warping. Not sure az has that.

The country definitely needs more election denying loudmouth slanderers.

we would all be better for it.

For those interested, the 34 alleged defamatory publications start at p. 47 in an appendix.

Lake is copying Trump in every way. She went from someone who seemed like a great candidate to an absolute trainwreck with no self-awareness.

Often referred to as stepping on rakes.

There should be enough here to get it past an anti-SLAAP. Lake's best defense might be that it was all hyperbole and no one should believe her.

Weird. Who would have thought nominating someone whose only professional experience was reading a queue card on camera to run a state with a multibillion dollar budget was a bad idea? I doubt anything actually goes forward with this case, but if it does it will be interesting to see how long it takes her to have to pull an Alex Jones and admit she's making it all up for the grift.

Trump hasn't changed one bit since he broke into the scene. The only thing that's changed is some people's opinions of him. But some of us have held the same low opinion since day 1.

He's changed quite a bit actually.

His demeanor is much much angrier now than 2016 (can you blame him). Little he says is witty anymore. His speeches are dull and not inspiring, probably due in part to age.

And when he wins, the TT's will whine, "FRAUD."

If intentional, Lake's stance is he's corrupt and she wants everyone to know it.
If unintentional, Lake's stance is he's incompetent and I want everyone to know it. She risks consequences but forces the underlying issue of bad ballots to be put in the spotlight, which is a huge win for election integrity.
Both make him look bad, so what's really the difference?

Unless there were no bad ballots printed and given to voters.

When you've lost even Jenna Ellis Esq, that is really saying something!

People ask me why I went from endorsing Kari Lake in her election to speaking out against her grift.

You just have to realize she’s a profoundly unserious narcissist who simply wants stardom, easy money, and a cult following. She is undermining the conservative and election… https://t.co/GmPGWlqyQM

Of all people, you should know that discovery is a two-way street. It's very possible both are lying out their asses. But there's enough "there" there to get this to discovery.

It is an extremely thorough complaint by the plaintiff. There's more than enough to have this case go the distance, whether or not it ultimately will reach the legal standard

If her lawyers hadn't already shown they were willing to lie in court on her behalf, Kari Lake and the co-defendants would presumably be advised to settle this out of court and move on to something else but I'm not sure they have a something else to move on to

She might as well give up. If her case regarding the thoroughness of the signature verification on the ballots went nowhere, nothing will. I live an Arizona and can tell you straight up the signature verification on mail in ballots is a bunch of BS. First off, when you register to vote online, you enter your signature electronically so it basically looks like unreadable crap that is nothing like handwriting your signature with a pen. When you vote on a mail in ballot, you write your signature with a pen on the ballot. How the frick anyone can compare a barely legible electronic signature to a clean ball point pen written signature is beyond me? I mean have you ever written your signature electronically on one of those credit card terminals at a store, did it look anything like your signature when you write it on a piece of paper with a pen? Mine certainly doesn't... There is no other form of ID on the mail in ballot either to prove it's you. No last 4 of the SSN or Driver's License # or anything like that. It's just ripe for using mail in ballots to cheat and steal an election...

Richer. Regardless of your opinions of Kari Lake, Maricopa county is a disgrace. And he's a lying piece of *****

Lake lost, she's a liar, then got her ass kicked in 2 law suits, about to be three. It's such an obvious troll grift you must do nothing but swim in Gateway Pundit and Pepe Twitter to believe otherwise.

Richer is a boyscout lifelong Goldwater conservative. He is a such a Republican nerd he was in the federalist society in high school.

I'm concerned for Karis future. I'm not sure what she will be doing once all of this is over. She will never be elected to anything.

imagine if Lake had the political clout to have the FBI illegitimately and illegally support her denial claims, and start investigations on her behalf, designed to destroy everyone remotely in the orbit of this guy like GCF did to Trump.

...and, at least she's easier on the eyes than Stacy Abrams and her band of troglodytic, election-denying acolytes.
