Lake tweeted in response to the race being called for Katie Hobbs:
Arizonans know BS when they see it.

Arizonans do know BS when they see it, which is why they rejected Kari Lake.
Lake started laying the groundwork for claiming that the election was stolen during a Sunday morning Fox News appearance where she claimed that Hobbs had a conflict of interest because she was the incumbent secretary of state and a candidate for governor.
Kari Lake resumed that thread on Monday evening:
Shouldn't Election Officials be impartial? The guys running the Election have made it their mission to defeat America First Republicans. Unbelievable. https://t.co/Lz12h9VRX1

Lake is going to keep riding the whole Trumpian the election was stolen from me vibe, but the thing is she has been asked numerous times to provide evidence that the election is not being conducted properly and has responded with nothing.
Trump was already saying that Lake’s election was stolen, and if there is one spot in the country that has been primed for political violence by the election deniers, it is Arizona.
Other election deniers have conceded across the country, but Kari Lake is sending the message that she is not going to concede and that things could get very ugly in Arizona.
