The Supreme Court recently rejected a lawsuit brought forth by Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake, questioning the use of electronic voting machines in Arizona. Lake, who initiated the lawsuit during her gubernatorial campaign in 2022, raised concerns about the fairness and accuracy of the state's electronic voting systems.
However, both lower courts that reviewed the case dismissed it, ruling that Lake and former Republican state lawmaker Mark Finchem lacked the necessary grounds to file a lawsuit as they had not suffered any tangible harm. The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals also noted that the specifics of Lake's claim were unclear and appeared to be based on speculative fears of potential hacking of the voting machines.
