How Kari Lake's Campaign Imploded

For KSAZ (Phoenix) Anchor Kari Lake tried to become the female version of Donald Trump as she ran for Governor of Arizona.

Lake lost and continues, like Trump, to claim that the election was stolen. It was not.

The Washington Post is out with a interesting story as to how Lake’s campaign unraveled and she became a loser, just like Trump.

Then Post writes that interviews, internal documents and voting data point to the reasons behind her defeat: The candidate, so focused on parroting Trump and settling personal scores, failed to execute on a plan to court the independents and centrist Republicans who decide elections in Arizona, once a red state that now gleams purple.

Lake would not listen to experts as she wanted to continue to carry the Trump flag. The Post writes, advisers wanted her to focus less on Trump’s false claims of voter fraud and more on homelessness, water independence and border security, according to people familiar with their counsel. Business leaders recommended that she tone down her MAGA message to create a friendlier climate for capital. Republican strategists asked her to stop denigrating early ballots, a method of voting once critical to Republican victories in the state.
