PHOENIX - The state Court of Appeals will consider later this month whether to expedite a bid by Kari Lake to overturn the results of the gubernatorial election she lost by more than 17,000 votes.
A three-judge panel has set Jan. 24 to consider her "special action'' request. And they want a response from attorneys for now-Gov. Katie Hobbs by this coming Wednesday.
But that doesn't mean the judges will give Lake's attorneys the chance to argue to them directly on that date why she believes they should order what she calls "a new and fair election.''
