Former Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake slammed Maricopa County election officials, calling them “crooks.”
Lake made the criticism during Turning Point USA’s America Fest over the weekend.
“On Nov. 8, they committed highway robbery,” Lake said.
Taking aim at the election officials, Lake added, “These people are crooks, they need to be locked up.”
Her comment received cheers from the crowd.
She went on to make a joke about pronouns, saying, “I know that right now we can identify as anything we want to identify as. But, I want you to know that I identify as a proud election denying deplorable.”
The Republican continued, “And my pronouns are I/Won.”
The crowd began chanting her name over and over again.

Last month, Lake lost her race to Democrat Katie Hobbs.
Former President Donald Trump offered his support to Lake following the election, saying she should be “installed” as governor, IJR reported.
“Massive numbers of ‘BROKEN’ voting machines in Republican Districts on Election Day. Mechanics sent in to ‘FIX’ them made them worse. Kari had to be taken to a Democrat area, which was working perfectly, to vote. Her opponent ran the Election,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
