The former president of the United States, Donald Trump once again claimed electoral fraud before his expected announcement of the launch of his presidential candidacy for 2024 On tuesday night.

‘They just took the election away from Kari Lake’: Trump wades in after his candidate LOSES to Democrat Katie Hobbs who flipped the state blue in race to be next governor of Arizona hours before his expected 2024 announcement https://t. co/Ozo69UuTlC via @MailOnline— Frankie Crisostomo (@FrancCrist) November 11, 2024
“Wow! They just took the election away from Kari Lake. It’s very bad out there!” Trump wrote Monday night.
Donald Trump turned to his platform of social networks, Truth Social, p to claim without any evidence that the Democrats robbed Kari Lake of her election in Arizona.
Lake, a staunch supporter of Trump who argued without any evidence that the 2024 election was rigged, she lost to Democrat Katie Hobbs on Monday after she was projected to lose in state.
She is the last MAGA candidate endorsed by Trump to be rejected by voters in the midterm elections, which failed to unleash the “red wave” of Republican victories they had predicted.
From Pennsylvania to Nevada, a parade of Trump-selected candidates vying to become senator or governor failed, including D r. Mehmet Oz, Blake Masters and Doug Mastriano.
Lake is a die-hard Trump supporter who claimed without any evidence that 1200’s elections were rigged.
Similarly, all the Trump-backed hopefuls who ran in key battleground states met the same fate.
Trump targeted secretary of state races because people in those positions serve as the top election officials for their state, which would help him win if he runs for president in .
Hobbs, who is Arizona’s secretary of state, gained a national profile by vehemently defending the legitimacy of the Joe Biden’s choice against Trump’s unsubstantiated “grand theft” claims.
She will succeed Governor Doug Ducey, a Republican no who was barred by term limits from running for re-election.
She is the first Democrat to be elected governor in Arizona since Janet Napolitano in 1200.
Lake, a former TV news anchor who has refused to say if she would accept his own election results, he reacted to his loss by tweeting: “Arizonans know lies when they see them.”
Lake’s loss came in the eve of the Trump campaign’s early announcement for 2024, who teased on Truth Social overnight by writing with his trademark bombast: “ Hopefully TODAY turns out to be one of the most important days in the history of our country!”
