‘A Great Step Forward’ for Election Integrity: Jenna Ellis on Kari Lake’s Election Lawsuit Hearing

On Dec. 13, a hearing over Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake’s election lawsuit took place before a Maricopa County Superior Court judge. The filing is asking the judge to declare Lake the winner over governor-elect Katie Hobbs, or at least order a recount in Maricopa County where Lake claims voters were disenfranchised. A two-day trial has been agreed upon. NTD spoke to Jenna Ellis, then senior adviser and counsel to former President Donald Trump. Ellis said that the fact that the hearing took place is “a great step forward” for election integrity, and that regardless of whether a two-day trial is enough time, “at least she’s getting a trial on the merits,” which is “a huge threshold victory.”
