Election officials in Arizona certified the state’s midterm results during a canvassing ceremony on Monday night at the state Capitol, opening the door for candidates to begin requesting recounts or to challenge the results of their respective races.
GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake is among those who are expected to challenge the results of their election losses, with the Republican announcing her campaign is already drawing up a number of lawsuits against the state. The Republican candidate has refused to concede more than three weeks after Election Day, claiming malfunctions with election machines unfairly cost her the race.

The county began reporting problems with its printer settings on the afternoon of Election Day after some ballot tabulators began malfunctioning, prompting election officials to tell voters either to wait for the machines to come back online or to vote at another location.
"Arizona had a successful election, but too often throughout the process, powerful voices proliferated misinformation that threatened to disenfranchise voters," Hobbs said during the certification ceremony."Democracy prevailed, but it's not out of the woods.
