“Maricopa County election officials engaged in numerous breaches of Arizona election law in their handling and custody of ballots, making it impossible to conclude that the vote tallies reported by Maricopa County accurately reflect the votes cast by Arizona voters,” contends the lawsuit.

Kari Lake’s team of expert attorneys have gathered evidence from signed witness testimony, Runbeck whistleblowers, and Maricopa County whistleblowers to craft a 70-page lawsuit against Maricopa County and Secretary of State Katie Hobbs.

Included in the complaint is a shocking claim by a Runbeck employee that nearly 300,000 ballots were delivered to Runbeck on Election Day with no chain of custody documentation.

Maricopa County is the only jurisdiction in the country that picks up completed ballots at USPS Processing Distribution Center but doesn’t bring them back to the election department or tabulation center. Instead, Maricopa County picks up mail-in ballots and takes them directly to its print vendor Runbeck Election Services, which is headquartered in Phoenix.

The Gateway Pundit has reported on Runbeck’s services in Maricopa County. The County has still not provided all chain of custody documents from Runbeck and USPS for the 2020 election.

The scanning of ballot envelopes takes place behind closed doors and apparently with no documentation.

According to Kari Lake’s lawsuit contesting the 2022 election, a Runbeck employee stated that “Runbeck received 298,942 ballots on Election Day, which includes the EV ballots. The required chain of custody for these ballots does not exist.”

Maricopa County also asked Runbeck how many ballots were received on election night, demonstrating that they did not even know how many ballots were in Runbeck’s custody.

Further, Maricopa County did not produce a single Early Voting Ballot Transport Statement (EVBTS) chain of custody document from Election Day drop box ballot retrievals. Early Voting Ballot Transport Statements are required every time ballots are retrieved from a vote center or drop box.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported on a 2020 Election report from Verity Vote discovered that 740,000 ballots lacked completed Early Voting Ballot Transport Statements. 1514 out of 1895 unique EVBTS forms had no ballot counts.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the Arizona Attorney General released a report in April 2022, which revealed that “between 100,000 and 200,000 ballots were transported without a proper chain of custody,” and signature verification standards were greatly decreased in the 2020 election. The Attorney General also concluded that “Maricopa County failed to follow the EPM procedures when transporting 20% of the early ballots from drop box locations to MCTEC.”

The Runbeck employee also revealed that 9,530 duplicate ballots were transported without any chain of custody documentation. “They were simply handed over to the delivery driver,” states the lawsuit.

Additionally, Employees of Runbeck were allowed to add their own ballots and family members’ ballots to the batches without chain of custody documentation.

All of these ballots were illegally cast and counted.

The complaint states, “There is no way to know whether 50 ballots or 50,000 ballots were unlawfully added into the election in this way. The Runbeck facility is not a legal ballot drop off site… Given this blatant violation of Arizona law, there is no way to tell the number of ballots that were illegally injected into the 2022 election.”
