Kari Lake: Arizona's Own Wile E. Coyote

Kari Lake, Arizona's failed Republican governor candidate, adds another loss to her record as a three-judge panel affirms the dismissal of her election lawsuit. Lake's quest to overturn her 2022 loss involves multiple failed lawsuits and appeals, solidifying her reputation as a grifter and a cartoonish political figure.

"Records show, for example, that the Louisville Colonels MLB team lost 26 straight games in 1889, and the NFL's Chicago Cardinals lost 29 games in a row between 1942 and 1945. But Lake's losses in both elections and lawsuits are starting to rival those streaks."

With each loss, Lake solicits more funds from MAGA supporters who buy into her conspiracy theories. Her streak of losses has made her Arizona's very own Wile E. Coyote or Daffy Duck, a figure of ridicule rather than a serious political contender.
