When I saw that they were pausing the counting for the night with Katie Hobbs in the lead, the thought crossed my mind that Kari Lake's actual lead might be too big for them to steal away with fake ballots, so they want to make everyone go to bed thinking Hobbs is the winner, then wake up to find that Lake "stole" the election. Basically, subject their Democrat voter base to the shock that we all felt when President Trump's lead was stolen away in the middle of the night.

All four Rs win in AZ.
The difference is that Lake is not stealing an election, so to provide fuel for Dems to say it was is not good for our side.
