In this weeks senate races two Republican candidates dont accept their losses in important swing-states. The post-election situation shows a now-familiar pattern of questioning voting results
In Wisconsin Eric Hovde lost to Democratic incumbent Tammy Baldwin‚ but heʼs thinking about asking for a re-count (even though election experts say the voting patterns are normal). His team is looking at the numbers from different counties; trying to find any issues with vote counting
In Arizona Kari Lake wont accept her loss to Ruben Gallego - its her second time doing this since she also didnt give in when she lost the governor race about 2 years ago. Her campaign team said the results were “hard-to-believe“; however Lake kind-of admitted defeat in a video she posted wednesday night
The situations in both states show how some candidates continue questioning election outcomes - a trend thats been growing since the last few election cycles. Both Wisconsin and Arizona are key battle-ground states that have seen close races in recent years
