00:01:07.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:44.000There's so much happening in Arizona, and there's so much still to be thankful for, despite all the nonsense happening.
00:01:52.000And I know a lot of you are very confused about what is happening in Maricopa County with the certification fights and with all these things that seem to be in the media that are hard to make sense of.
00:02:06.000So joining us right now is Jake Hoffman.
00:02:44.000There is a lot to still be thankful for.
00:02:46.000But in terms of this election, we are watching the most incompetent, shoddy election that has ever been run in the history of our country unfold right now.
00:02:56.000And no, there is no question in my mind that it should not be certified by Doug Ducey.
00:03:02.000It should not be certified by Katie Hobbs, which to me is a conflict of interest regardless.
00:03:08.000You know, tens of thousands of voters were directly disenfranchised and millions of voters were disenfranchised by extension.
00:03:17.000And so right now, what we're seeing is, look, this is coming down very explicitly to Carrie Lake and her legal team, Abe Homeday and his legal team, Tom Horn and his legal team, and Attorney General Bernovich.
00:03:32.000You know, Attorney General Bernovich has an election integrity unit that the legislature set up in 2019 for specifically situations like this, and it needs to do its job.
00:03:43.000Now, they've started, they've done a great job so far of outlining the litany of issues that exist with this election, but they need to pursue this with the full force of the Attorney General's office.
00:03:59.000You know, he's on his way out of office, but he has to understand that this is not about a particular candidate or a particular election.
00:04:06.000This is about the most foundational element of our republic, which is people's trust in that the process of elections is accurate and can be trusted.
00:05:01.000It's why they are so miserable and that's why they want to change everything.
00:05:05.000As a conservative, you want to pass down what is best and what is beautiful, what is good and what is true to future generations.
00:05:14.000And because of that, we're thankful for what we have, for what was done before us.
00:05:20.000So, Jake, for our national audience, can you please paint the picture as to where do things stand in Arizona and what specifically happened on Election Day that was so unprecedented with the voter disenfranchisement and voter suppression?
00:05:35.000Yeah, Charlie, what we're watching, plain and simple, right now unfold in Arizona is the most incompetent and shoddy election in the history of our country right now.
00:05:46.000Tens of thousands of voters were directly disenfranchised on Election Day in Maricopa County due to their incompetence and alleged corruption.
00:05:56.000I mean, it is alleged criminal activity that the Attorney General has outlined when you have 70, you know, 70, 80, you know, polling places with tabulators not working, when you have printers for ballots not working, lacking toner ink, which, you know, Chairman Ward was screaming about for weeks that they had to make sure that that was taken care of.
00:06:43.000Well, so I think, look, the number one way that we prove that is we go in and we look at the reconciliation between the poll books, the people who tried to check out of the poll books, the people who left, went to a different polling place, and weren't able to cast their ballot compared to the actual number of ballots cast.
00:07:00.000Unfortunately, Maricopa County is stonewalling Kerry Lake's request for information, Abe Homeday's request for information, and Attorney General Bernovich's request for information because they don't want people to understand and to know the full scope of how many people were disenfranchised.
00:07:17.000But tens of thousands is a very safe assumption based on the day of voter turnout.
00:07:23.000And, you know, when you look at this across the state, you're not only talking about Maricopa County voters, remember, you have disenfranchisement directly and by extension.
00:07:32.000And in other counties, Cochise County, Mojave County, Yavapai County, you have voters that did turn out that are now at the mercy of Maricopa County, a county that represents 62% of the entire state's population.
00:07:47.000So when this county gets it wrong, it affects every single other rural county.
00:07:52.000And that's why we're seeing these county officials that are saying, whoa, whoa, whoa, not so fast.
00:07:57.000We may not certify our elections, even though we ran it correctly, because we can't allow Maricopa County to dominate us the way that they are right now.
00:08:07.000Yeah, so Jake, this is really important.
00:08:09.000So the night before the election, they tested all of these machines.
00:08:12.000And this is a very silly, antiquated system that was previously implemented by Adrian Fontes, who unfortunately looks like he's going to become the next Secretary of State unless we get a new election in Maricopa County, which I think is exactly what we need.
00:08:26.000But so we have the machines are tested the night before.
00:09:25.000How do you go from 100% working correctly to 63% malfunctioning and most of them not working at all come election day, just a few hours later?
00:09:39.000And look, we've all learned that in the world of politics, sadly, due to the corruption and influence and whatnot that exists just generally in politics, we've all learned there's really no such thing as coincidence, especially when coincidence hits as hard as it did with what you were just citing.
00:09:56.000Yeah, so things work perfectly the night before in tests and trials.
00:10:00.000And then hours later, it's not just one.
00:10:02.000So Jake, it would be something that if, you know, okay, there's one out in Mesa or Peoria, because somebody did something wrong and they, you know, they unintentionally tampered with it.
00:10:13.000But when you have 63%, according to Just the News, the Just the News article, and some people say it's 48%.
00:10:34.000So the way that Maricopa County works is that there were 223 vote centers that are not done by precinct, but they're approximated by precincts.
00:10:44.000And this is an antiquated system that I believe was designed to destroy Election Day in Arizona.
00:10:49.000And boy, they've done a good job of it.
00:10:51.000And they're staffed and they work here.
00:10:53.000And so if you go into the polling place and you have a mail-in ballot, you could spoil that ballot.
00:10:59.000And then they literally have to print you a new ballot.
00:11:01.000Thanks to Adrian Fontes, who came up with this silly system.
00:11:04.000When they print you the new ballot, then you fill it out.
00:11:06.000And then they actually count your vote on site in real time in person.
00:11:12.000The issue was the newly printed ballot was not registering in the machines they had.
00:11:18.000In fact, some people had to go through two, three, four, five times.
00:11:21.000And then Bill Gates said, well, just go put it in this box, box three, that now we know was mishandled, that we know was not handled the way they told us to, unlawfully and illegally.
00:11:31.000It was commingled, and people were very worried and concerned about that.
00:11:35.000And their worries and their concerns were legitimate and warranted.
00:11:39.000But something changed because it's even deeper than that, Jake, because it seems as if if somebody tampered with this equipment, which by the way is the only logical explanation, the only logical explanation is that somebody tampered with this because the test went perfectly.
00:11:54.000And then at 6 a.m. at voting centers across the valley, it was complete and total bedlam.
00:12:00.000And we have videos attesting to this, by the way, is that it was a sabotage to create lines.
00:12:08.000It was a sabotage to create confusion.
00:12:13.000We were told that after a technician showed up, it went worse.
00:12:16.000And then out of nowhere at two or three in the afternoon, they discovered that the toner settings were somehow...
00:12:24.000Oh, we're just off a little bit on the toner settings.
00:12:29.000Right now, Bank of America has just lowered its 2022 forecast for the SP 500 by a whopping 900 points to 3,600.
00:12:39.000Saying we're headed for a recession this year, it said the new year target is the lowest on the street.
00:12:44.000This is not good news for those of you stuck in equities or anything tied to stock markets.
00:12:49.000I know thousands of people who have put their trust in Noble Gold to prevent losing money and the financial storm that is brewing.
00:12:55.000You can join them by calling their expert team.
00:12:57.000Noble Gold has recently voted the number one gold company in the country by Consumer Affairs.
00:13:02.000No call centers, no scripted response, no bull, just a straight, honest run through options so you can decide.
00:13:08.000And by the way, they're giving away a beautiful one-tenth of an ounce gold American Eagle coin with every qualifying IRA or 401k rollover this month.
00:13:31.000No matter what they control, they always want more because they're not thankful.
00:13:36.000When you think about it, when you are a progressive, when you are a deconstructionist, you want to destroy everything around you because you have no gratitude for the beauty or the tradition or the wonder of what is around you.
00:14:06.000Well, Charlie, there isn't an explanation.
00:14:08.000And look, I want to go back to something you said that it was, you know, some say the numbers 63% of machines weren't tabulating correctly or were malfunctioning.
00:14:19.000Look, the simple truth is whether it's a third of machines affecting voters and disenfranchising voters or half of machines or two-thirds of machines disenfranchising voters.
00:14:33.000It's an absolute assault, a vicious assault on our democracy from the very establishment rhinos, from the very leftists that say their job is to protect democracy.
00:14:46.000The reality is that they're the ones executing an assault on democracy by seemingly, seemingly, allegedly, purposefully disenfranchising voters, the voters that they don't like, because they knew the numbers were going to be overwhelming.
00:15:01.000Exit polling showed upwards of 85% of DA voters were voting for America first candidates.
00:15:07.000Those were the very people that these same election officials had started a political action committee to oppose in their personal capacity.
00:15:16.000This seems like a direct assault on not only our democracy, but on our republic.
00:15:22.000This election should not be certified by Doug Ducey, our governor, by Katie Hobbs, our Secretary of State, who has a massive conflict of interests here.
00:15:31.000And A.G. Bernovich, Kerry Lake, Abe Hamaday, and Tom Horn.
00:15:36.000It is up to their legal teams to get to the bottom of this.
00:15:40.000And thankfully, we have other counties stepping up to delay their certification to hopefully give some time for that process to play out.
00:16:08.000And I think the best case scenario, given the fact that there is almost no precedent in the entire country for this level of gross incompetence to have occurred, a revote is the only thing that re-empowers every single legal vote and makes sure that voters can trust the process, not only this year, but moving forward.
00:16:27.000We have email after email that we have shared, and the media is completely ignoring it, of senior citizens, 70 and 80-year-old patriots, amazing people.
00:16:35.000For example, one lady in Anthem, Arizona, Ruby Red, right, Jake?
00:16:41.000She went to go vote in Anthem, two and a half hour wait, couldn't find a parking spot, and she missed voting for the first time since 1981.
00:17:46.000This is when I went down there to check in on things at about, you know, 15 minutes to seven, an hour and a half long lines.
00:17:53.000And look, that's the other thing that we need to expose here, too.
00:17:56.000The county is slow walking not only what the true percentage of polling places that had issues were, but also which polling places had issues.
00:18:05.000And that's incredibly material here, given the fact that it's rumored that heavily Democrat areas didn't experience issues.
00:18:25.000And by the way, that line that we just saw in Anthem, Arizona, that line right there is the difference between Abe Hamaday becoming Attorney General and not right there.
00:18:35.000They created a traffic jam and it should be.
00:20:00.000If there was a earthquake that happened in Maricopa County on Election Day and 63% of voting centers experienced issues, do you think that there would be an argument for a revote?
00:20:13.000Do you think that if there was some sort of natural disaster?
00:20:16.000Do you think if there was a major power outage, for example, and people were not able to vote?
00:20:21.000Well, that is exactly what happened, whether it happened intentionally or unintentionally, is not as relevant as to what actually ended up happening.
00:20:27.000One, two, three-hour lines in the reddest Ruby districts in Maricopa County.
00:20:35.000And even Democrats in line were disenfranchised.
00:20:47.000So Harmeet, can you give us a little bit of a preview or some insight into what is the legal strategy that the Lake campaign is proceeding with at this point?
00:20:57.000Well, I'm one of, I've been one of many lawyers working on Kerry's campaign, and she has a lot of great advisors.
00:21:04.000And so the campaign today did file a records lawsuit.
00:21:12.000My colleague Tim Lasota filed that lawsuit.
00:21:15.000My team worked on it as well in the background.
00:21:17.000And he presented evidence of a number of voters who had experienced difficulty voting or were unable to vote on Election Day with respect to poll workers not knowing how to properly check people out so they could go vote at a different vote center, extremely long lines, tabulators not working, other errors of that nature.
00:21:42.000There are poll workers who have observed mishandling of ballots and things like that.
00:21:46.000And so the purpose of that lawsuit is to try to force the state to defend itself, force Maricopa County specifically to agree that they will not certify this election until all of the inconsistencies in numbers and other issues like that are rectified.
00:22:05.000So that is a lawsuit that doesn't change the outcome of the election.
00:22:10.000There are certain statutory bases for that.
00:22:13.000I believe Kerry has another team of lawyers who is working on different theories.
00:22:17.000So that's the one that I've been helping with.
00:22:20.000So when do you anticipate something to be filed?
00:22:24.000Well, the lawsuit that I just described was filed this morning.
00:22:32.000Other litigation, I would have to defer to some of the other lawyers that Kerry has been working with.
00:22:39.000Harmeet, you've been working in this field for quite some time.
00:22:42.000Have you ever seen anything quite like the voter disenfranchisement or suppression that happened on Election Day?
00:22:49.000And also, you were leading the charge to actually try to extend voting hours on Election Day.
00:22:56.000And it was Mark Kelly's campaign, if I remember correctly, that said they don't want more people to vote because of these hour lines and the mass malfunctions that happen on Election Day.
00:23:07.000So I was in Maricopa County and I was working with the campaign on Election Day and around it.
00:23:14.000And I have been working behind the scenes to gather documentary evidence regarding these irregularities with a team of lawyers at my law firm.
00:23:22.000On Election Day itself, when it became clear that people were experiencing difficulty voting to the extent that they were getting wrong information from poll workers, they were being told to go to other places to vote and then not properly checked out.
00:23:36.000So the records in the poll book show that they'd already voted.
00:23:39.000We did go into court together with other Republican lawyers and asked the court for the very simple remedy, which is entirely appropriate of simply extending the voting hours by up to three hours that day.
00:23:52.000And of course, the county opposed it, but also the Mark Kelly campaign intervened.
00:24:01.000And the Kelly campaign said this is no big deal.
00:24:05.000And there's no reason to extend. the voting hours.
00:24:09.000And so the court declined to extend the voting hours.
00:24:13.000And as a result, if you experienced difficulty voting, if you were told that your vote could not be counted at a second polling place, you didn't get your vote.
00:24:22.000And there are, we believe, hundreds of examples of people like that who were not allowed to vote because of errors by the poll workers.
00:24:32.000There are probably an untold number of people, maybe in the thousands, who turned away from, who decided not to vote because the lines were too long and the lines were too long solely as a result of gross incompetence on the part of Maricopa County election officials.
00:24:46.000And what's really troubling here, Charlie, is that in the 2020 election, similar failures or similar scale of failures was observed there.
00:24:55.000And what I can see, and I'm sorry to say this as a Republican because a lot of these guys are Republican election officials, is they did, not only did they do nothing to fix it, they're very arrogant about it.
00:25:06.000They defend this as all being perfectly normal, no big deal.
00:25:10.000And it blows my mind that the testing that is required by law for these people to do, they did not do it.
00:25:20.000It appears, for example, I mean, for those who aren't familiar with the ballot on demand system in Maricopa County uses, you go into a voting center and you could vote anywhere in the county.
00:25:31.000They have to print up a ballot for you because whatever you're voting on on local race is going to vary depending on where you live.
00:25:37.000And when they tested this equipment, they did not test, apparently, according to witnesses, printing a ballot on site and feeding a ballot printed on site into the machines on site.
00:25:48.000So they took some pre-printed ballots, like from the central, the vote-by-mail ballots, and they fed those in.
00:25:54.000So that's a total fail because if you went to vote in person on election day, you didn't vote a vote by mail ballot for the most part.
00:26:01.000You walked in and you got a ballot printed for you, custom printed.
00:26:04.000And if the printer didn't work and the tabulator didn't work, you experienced significant delays.
00:26:12.000You're told to leave your ballot behind and that it will be counted.
00:26:15.000And there was very sloppy handling, inconsistent with Arizona statute of those untabulated ballots.
00:26:21.000The untabulated ballots were supposed to be tabulated at the voting center.
00:26:28.000And in the rare exceptions where they cannot be counted there because of, like we said, some disaster or whatever, there's supposed to be a declaration of emergency, an affidavit by the local poll worker, and then police are supposed to accompany those ballots to the central MECTEC voting tabulation center.
00:26:47.000And so the remedy for Arizona voters is unclear at this point because statute provides certain remedies to ask for a do-over, like some people are suggesting, you have to show catastrophic failures that effectively prevented, that would have changed the outcome of the election.
00:27:03.000So I know that's something that some people on Kerry's team are looking at.
00:27:07.000And that's probably, I would suspect there will be further litigation at some point.
00:27:12.000So Harmee, let me just make sure I understand this correctly.
00:27:15.000You're saying that at some of these voting centers, they did test it, but they tested it using a mail-in ballot, not actually printing a new ballot as if what they were going to do the next day.
00:27:27.000And that happened not at one, but several voting centers.
00:27:30.000So that's not possible unless they were instructed to do it that way, right?
00:27:54.000But if their management, if their management is incompetent and/or careless, you would have this outcome.
00:28:01.000Other issues that have surfaced, I haven't had time.
00:28:04.000We haven't had time to fully explore them, but there are questions about whether some of these printers were obsolete, ID had been recalled, and were not considered fit for service by their own manufacturers.
00:28:18.000Now, each of these printers, my understanding is there was some software work that was done by a third-party company to tailor them to the use of printing ballots.
00:28:26.000They're kind of off-the-shelf printers.
00:28:28.000But in any event, they kind of, it was a lick and a promise and a make-do.
00:28:33.000And, you know, Arizona did take some steps to tighten up elections after 2020, for example, banning Zuckerberg.
00:28:39.000But at the same time, what they didn't do, they did not close a loophole that allows companies or nonprofits and air quotes like Mark Zuckerberg's nonprofit from giving in-kind support.
00:28:51.000So, in fact, Maricopa County accepted in-kind support from nonprofits that would help them with communication, okay?
00:29:00.000Not voting, which is their key job, is to administer an effective vote.
00:29:04.000So, you will have noticed over the last couple of weeks since the election, that they've been very effective at communicating and spinning their failures and gaslighting the public and covering it all up because they have support from a nonprofit to do that.
00:29:19.000But when it comes to investing the money that the taxpayers of Arizona pay to make sure that the basic fundamental, like you have one job, Maricopa County reporter, it is to run an election that all the people, Republican or Democrat, accept the outcome of.
00:29:37.000And so, if I were a Maricopa County or even an Arizona voter, I would be looking at recalling some of these people and really demanding that our elections be run, not like even the third world countries these days give you accurate results at the end of the day.
00:29:52.000We don't have complete and accurate results out of Arizona, and I'm not sure we ever will.
00:29:57.000So, I mean, it's just mind-boggling and infuriating because here you have 223 voting centers.
00:30:04.000The RNC report via Just the News said 63% experienced malfunctions that resulted in one-hour and two-hour lines.
00:30:15.000And so, they were tested improperly the night before, and not just at one center, but at centers all across the valley.
00:30:22.000Which, if you have these poll workers and you meet them, they're the sweetest people.
00:30:25.000They're retired teachers and veterans, and they're really sweet people.
00:30:29.000And they, and when I went to go vote on Election Day in Arizona, they were overwhelmed and they were confused, and they were telling me this machine is broken.
00:30:37.000We called for help, we're getting nothing.
00:30:38.000And so, my criticism is not at the volunteers that are the election workers, they're really wonderful people, but that they weren't making a mistake if they were doing it all across the valley.
00:30:49.000Somebody instructed them to incorrectly test it with a mail-in ballot, even though it was going to be a printed ballot the next day, and then it was a quote-unquote toner issue.
00:31:00.000I mean, if I was super Machiavellian and I wanted to see Kerry Lake lose, and I wanted to see Blake Masters lose, and I wanted to see Mark Fincham lose, if I was a really bad dude and I worked for Maricopa County, and I don't know, I ran a super PAC where I said that the only way Republicans were going to be able to find their soul again was humiliation at the ballot box.
00:31:20.000If I was that small of a person, if I was that evil of a person, then I would just say, you know what?
00:31:47.000Yeah, I think a total redo in Maricopa County.
00:31:49.000And Harmeet, I sent one of these emails to you and your team.
00:31:52.000A woman that has voted in every election since 1981, a senior citizen from Anthem, Arizona, unable to vote.
00:31:58.000When she got there, it was a two and a half hour wait.
00:32:00.000She can't wait that long in line, couldn't find a parking space because of the tabulation errors, the machines, and because of what Maricopa County did.
00:32:07.000Real voter suppression and disenfranchisement of senior citizens.
00:32:11.000And by the way, we're told by the media and by the left, oh, we must do everything we can to protect our senior citizens, Medicare, Social Security, and obviously we're beyond sympathetic to all of that.
00:32:21.000But the moment that a senior citizen wants to vote on election day, they say, too bad, don't care.
00:32:25.000Wait two and a half hours in line in the Arizona sun.
00:32:32.000Look, I've told you about producer Andrew and how Relief Factor has really improved his life and relieved the pain in his knees and back.
00:32:38.000Now, let me tell you about Yvonne in California.
00:32:41.000She says this: Both my husband and I are in our 70s and so grateful to have found Relief Factor.
00:32:46.000We've tried so many other solutions, but none of them have given us the freedom from aches and pains like Relief Factor.
00:32:52.000I hear Yvonne, Relief Factor works for me too.

00:33:44.000People are fired up, understandably, and people are getting cynical.
00:33:49.000And what I think is so disgusting and what I think is so disappointing, but not shocking, is Maricopa County, instead of actually playing along and opening up their records and proving that this election is so amazing and wonderful, they're actually being hostile and secretive and duplicitous.
00:34:08.000Harmeet, can you speak to that about how Maricopa County is actually not acting as if everything went wonderfully, they're acting in very sneaky ways.
00:34:18.000And, you know, this is how you would act if you were trying to cover something up and you were not proud of how you behaved.
00:34:24.000And so we've all seen this in our real lives.
00:34:26.000But when you, when instead of acknowledging issues and then doing something to alleviate the harm, which they could have done on election day, they acknowledge the issue in the middle of the day, late in the afternoon, saying, yes, there have been a lot of problems, but don't worry, it's been fixed now.
00:34:41.000What's terrible about this is that they knew early in the morning that these issues were there.
00:34:48.000They should have gone to court themselves, actually, to run a good election and get the court to allow that people get a full day to vote.
00:34:58.000And so we've had inaccurate statements, confusing statements.
00:35:02.000At one point, one of the lawyers for Maricopa County cussed out lawyers for the Republican National Committee and the Cary Lake campaign and other campaigns were calling in and asking for information, accurate information, during the counting process after the election and just went on a rant.
00:35:22.000And, you know, very unprofessional behavior, in my opinion.
00:35:26.000And so I just think the whole thing is rotten.
00:35:29.000I mean, I believe in people generally being good and you give them the benefit of the doubt.
00:35:33.000To me, what I've seen is it is such a rotten system that really everybody in the whole election system in Maricopa County needs to be fired.
00:35:43.000People need to be disciplined who made some of these decisions.
00:35:45.000There needs to be regulatory reform in the form of actually statutory reforms.
00:35:49.000There needs to be new statutes passed to protect the voters and to set some triggers for what happens when there is a catastrophic failure of voting.
00:35:59.000But there's one other thing I want to say about this, Charlie, which may not be the favorite thing of a lot of conservatives to hear.
00:36:06.000The reality is that Democrats felt pretty comfortable going into this election because they had banked their vote.
00:36:13.000They voted early and they used the mail ballots.
00:36:16.000And the people who voted early on those mail ballots that were pre-printed, they didn't have any of these problems that we're talking about here.
00:36:22.000Their ballots were tabulated, whether they were Republican or Democrat.
00:36:26.000Their ballots were tabulated and they did not suffer these failures.
00:36:30.000And I would respectfully suggest that if we want to win elections as opposed to, you know, kind of win the elections the way we think they should be run, but win the elections the way they are, I think we're going to have to get really smart in every upcoming election.
00:36:45.000I prefer to go to the polls and vote in person myself.
00:36:48.000However, in some states, Republicans have done a great job actually of getting their ballots in early and then feeling confident that we have the votes we need and then we can chase fewer and fewer votes.
00:36:59.000And I know people are suspicious of this.
00:37:01.000They say, oh, well, that just tells the Democrats how many votes they need to get.
00:37:05.000Everybody needs to be voting and getting their vote in so that they don't suffer these kinds of issues.
00:37:17.000If we vote the way the Democrats vote and we have integrity around that process, I think we could have more confidence and a better outcome.
00:37:25.000And people will not feel like they do today that their vote wasn't counted.
00:37:28.000And so I think that's something that we really need to have a program around at the national level, Republican National Committee where I serve.
00:37:35.000And really just, you know, you can change the law to the way you want it.
00:37:38.000But until then, you got to play the game by the rules you have, not the rules you wish you had.
00:37:49.000When we broadcast our big play, Election Day, Election Day, Election Day, we set ourselves up for an ambush and a sabotage in-person early voting.
00:37:57.000We need to start to get much more sophisticated in this way.
00:38:00.000The opposition, they have voting month, and we just throw it all up against the wall and say, well, I hope it happens on election day.
