But this year Lake also promoted conspiracy theses linked to postal voting and early voting, asking to call a single day on which to vote in person. His subsequent support for early and postal voting on the eve of the election goes a long way with the ex’s about-faces President Donald Trumpwho realized that without these two modalities he would have had no chance of winning.
But despite having changed his mind on the legitimacy of postal voting, Lake remains convinced that the election will be stolen. The only solution? “We will make sure the vote is too colossal to tamper with.”he told his supporters.
During her campaign for the Senate, the candidate yes it is repeatedly rejected to answer a simple question: are you willing to accept the election results?
In the United States, i polls suggest that he could face defeat and, based on his statements during the campaign, it is unlikely that Lake, who he has not yet admitted he lost in 2022is willing to admit defeat.
Lake took his challenge to court and lost again. Undaunted, she then continued curry favor with Trump and the Maga movementand was even taken into consideration as a possible candidate for vice president. Now, he argues that it would be stupid to commit to accepting the election results without knowing what they will be.
Many of his supporters who spoke with Wired US on Monday evening they agreed with Lake, convinced that they were fraud is already underway in the electoral consultations.
“I don’t think we should accept anything until we know the elections are honest. We know that the last one was rigged and that the 2020 one was too“he declared to Wired US Sandy, a Lake supporter from Prescott Valley.
But there were also fans who urged their candidate to do the right thing and admit defeat. “We have no choice, we have to accept the results“, commented Rick Starmer, of Chino Valley, Yavapai County.
