Maricopa County, Arizona, Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson on Monday ruled against Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake in her election challenge of Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs' victory in November's election. The three-day trial centered on the issue of whether Maricopa County followed Arizona law during the signature review process for mail-in ballots. Thompson noted in his ruling that during the trial, Lake's legal team identified 274,000 signatures that were compared in less than two seconds and 70,000 that were reviewed in less than one second.
