"This fight to save our republic has just begun," said Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake in a video message posted Thursday.
Appearing to signal that she has no plans to concede as of now, Lake stated: "I have assembled the best and brightest legal team and we are exploring every avenue to correct the many wrongs that have been done this past week," referring also to her lawsuit filed months ago to eliminate electronic tabulation machines, which at some locations on Election Day were not functional, causing problems for voters and delays.
The Associated Press and other outlets have called the race for Lake's opponent, Katie Hobbs.
