On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear a federal lawsuit from 2022 regarding electronic voting machines that Arizona GOP U.S. Senate candidate Kari Lake and former Arizona GOP secretary of state nominee Mark Finchem had brought.
The Supreme Court denied Lake and Finchem’s writ of certiorari that was filed last month, along with numerous other cases on Monday, indicating the court would not hear them.
In April 2022, before the midterm elections, Lake and Finchem filed a lawsuit in U.S. district court, arguing that electronic machines in certain Arizona counties are in violation of constitutional rights and had been wrongly certified for use.
