An Arizona judge ruled against Republican Kari Lake’s claims that there was intentional misconduct on the part of Maricopa County Saturday after a two-day trial Saturday.

Judge Peter Thompson did not find clear and convincing evidence of widespread misconduct during the 2022 election. He said Lake’s witnesses lacked personal knowledge of intentional misconduct, the Washington Post reported. “The Court cannot accept speculation or conjecture in place of clear and convincing evidence,” Thompson stated.
