A Maricopa County judge said on Dec. 19 that he’s taking a motion to dismiss an election lawsuit filed by Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake “under advisement” after a hearing at the Maricopa County Superior Court.

Earlier this month, Lake filed a lawsuit against Democratic Gov.-elect Katie Hobbs in her capacity as the current Arizona secretary of state, Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer, the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, and others. Lake, who trails Hobbs by about 17,000 votes statewide, alleged that “hundreds of thousands of illegal ballots” were cast in Maricopa County and sought either a new election or to be declared the winner.

She has alleged, among other claims, that Election Day voters were disenfranchised on Nov. 8 due to reports of widespread polling issues in Maricopa County, which were confirmed by Richer and Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Gates during a press conference that day. Gates and Richer had told voters to place their ballots in secure drop boxes or cast their ballots in a different location, although Lake has since posted videos of Maricopa County residents reporting long lines and other irregularities on Nov. 8.

Kari Lake heads to trial after judge allows two out of 10 of her election lawsuit claims

To be successful in her lawsuit, Lake's legal team must prove that "printer malfunctions were intentional, and directed to affect the results of the election, and that such actions did actually affect the outcome," according to the judge. She must also show that the lack of chain of custody was "both intentional and did in fact result in a changed outcome."

In the claim about tabulator configurations, she alleged that malfunctioning printers in Maricopa County left them vulnerable to hacking and blamed the situation on "intentional action.” In the second claim, she alleged that there were breaches of policy for the chain of custody of ballots.

"Plaintiff argues that: 1) the ability of employees of the county’s ballot contractor to add ballots of family members and 2) the lack of an Inbound Receipt of Delivery form both constitute misconduct," Thompson explained, NBC, Red State

Among the claims that were dismissed were violation of freedom of speech, invalid signatures on mail-in ballots, equal protection, due process, secrecy clause, incorrect certification, inadequate remedy, and constitutional rights claims.
