D'Souza: Who has been in charge of the counting in Arizona? It's the Maricopa County Recorder in Maricopa County. This is Steven, I guess it's Richer, and this is a guy who hates Kari Lake.
In fact, an email surfaced recently in which he talked about the fact that he hated Kari Lake. And so you have already a troubling situation.
You've got a guy who wants Kari Lake to lose, and he's basically the referee for this at Maricopa County, which is a critical county with a large portion of the Arizona vote.
This guy got blasted so badly on social media and specifically on X that he deactivated his X account. He just basically got off of X, and now let's look a little more closely at the vote totals here because, as I mentioned, you have Trump with at 52.6 and Kamala Harris at 46.4.
Kari Lake is, by and large, running alongside Kamala Harris, and Ruben Gallego is running alongside Trump. Now, Ruben Gallego doesn't quite have Trump's 52. Ruben Gallego has 49.7, but he's closer to Trump.
Kari Lake is closer to Kamala Harris. And so, we are now being asked to believe something that confutes Any kind of common sense, which is that the same number of people who voted for Kamala, roughly, voted for Kari Lake, and the same number of people who voted for Trump, roughly, voted for Gallego.
I refuse to believe that. That makes no sense at all.
Now, to say that something is odd, makes no sense, is an anomaly, doesn't prove cheating. It falls short, but it does raise the question of whether this needs to be investigated.
If the margin is close enough, there will be a recount, but a recount is not an investigation.
An investigation is a little bit more a deeper dive into how these numbers got to be the way they are, and whether or not this delay was an opportunity and really a mechanism to cheat, to alter vote totals, to bring in new votes out of sort of nowhere.
I noticed that in [Pima] County, which is a left-wing County in Arizona, they altered their vote total. Normally, you don't alter vote totals. You might say, ‘no, we haven't counted these votes. We've only counted these, but not these.’
It's a whole different matter to say we came in on Election Day with 35,000 votes, and by the way, we just found 15,000 more after Election Day.
Where'd you find them? Where were they? Why didn't you count them? Why didn't we know about these votes before? How can a vote total change, post election day when you're not allowed to accept any ballots, post election day?
