Arizona Republican Gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake appeared on CNN’s State of The Union on Sunday and destroyed the guest host, Dana Bash for asking partisan and biased questions.
“I’m gonna win the election and I will accept that result because the people of Arizona will never support and vote for a coward like Katie Hobbs,” she said, noting that her Democrat challenger, Katie Hobbs has refused to debate her on multiple occasions. “She’s single handedly destroying a 20 year tradition of gubernatorial debates because of her cowardice.” She remarked.
Lake, on multiple occasions, has offered to debate Hobbs on all terms that would satisfy the Hobbs campaign but for some reason, the Hobbs campaign has refused to debate Lake throughout the campaign season.
A recent investigative report published by Project Veritas shows both Hobbs and her campaign advisors displaying blatant hypocrisy talking about their decision to avoid debates with Lake.

Bash asked Lake if she would accept the results of the midterm elections if she lost referring to her strong support for the stop the steel movement, claiming that there is absolutely “no evidence” of 2020 voter fraud “presented in a court of law or anywhere else”
“We had 740,000 ballots with no chain of custody,” Lake responded with a real-time fact check. “The real issue, Dana, is that the people don’t trust our elections.” She remarked.
“In 2016, Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, and Hillary Clinton. Everybody on the Democrat side said the election had problems,” Lake noted. “In 2018 Stacey Abrams never conceded. She still hasn’t. I don’t hear CNN calling her an election denier.” She responded.

Lake also briefly touched on the top concerns of Arizona voters, which include inflation, and the Border crisis, both caused by the Biden administration’s neglect and woke policies.
“Well, the vast majority of the people coming across don’t really meet the criteria for asylum. There’s a lot of fraudulent asylum claims that are being made,” Lake said.
To which, Bash interjected and added that “less than 1 percent of migrants encountered at the border have a criminal record.” Citing a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) source.
To which, Lake responded with another real-time fact check, noting, “I’m gonna have to disagree with you on that figure you just put out. We have a million gotaways. These are illegal aliens who cross the border and are never even recorded by DHS.”
“They want to avoid capture because they have criminal records. We need to vet people coming into our country. We have a great legal immigration system, a very generous legal immigration system,” she remarked.
