Carrie Lake, a Trump-backed Republican from Arizona, is making huge strides in her campaign fundraising, with more than $2.2 million raised since she launched her campaign just three months ago.
Lake is poised to flip one of Arizona's two Democratic Senate seats red.
Which is why the fake Republican Maricopa County Recorder, backed by the Soros-funded far-left organization Protect Democracy, is suing Carrie Lake for alleged defamation after she spoke out against him and her stolen election to governor of Arizona. “They are so afraid that I will win the U.S. Senate seat and go to D.C. and give the majority to the Republicans so that we can actually change this nightmare,” Lake told The Gateway Pundit in an exclusive interview.
Lake, who is still fighting a lawsuit over the stolen 2022 midterm elections, announced her candidacy on October 10, and President Trump endorsed Lake in a video appearance at her announcement rally.

People who say voters are rejecting so-called “election conspiracy theorists” like Carrie Lake could kick up sand with this latest news.
“Carrie Lake is doing everything a U.S. Senate nominee needs to do to win,” said Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wis.) and this massive fundraising quarter “shows she has the support and momentum to win this race.”
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Carrie Lake is also leading in the general election polls, a trend that has not changed since before she announced her candidacy.
Lake issued the following press release on Monday:
For immediate release: January 8, 2024
PHOENIX, ARIZONA — Since launching her Senate campaign on Oct. 10, Lake's campaign fundraising numbers have shown a strong start to one of the most competitive Senate races in the country. The Lake for Council campaign announced it raised $2.2 million in its first quarter in the race for the fourth quarter from contributions to Kari Lake for Senate, the campaign committee, and the Kari Lake Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee. Additionally, the Lakeshore Campaign announced that more than 19,500 individual donors have made contributions to the campaign.
Cook Political has rated Arizona a “toss-up,” making it one of Senate Republicans' best chances to flip the Senate. The latest independent poll in the race showed Curry ahead of Gallego and Sinema. Lake gets 41 percent, Gallego gets 35 percent, and Sinema gets 16 percent. President Trump continues to lead Joe Biden in Arizona. Lake has the endorsement of President Trump, Senator Barrasso, and Senator Cotton. Her fundraising numbers are the second highest of any Republican Senate challenger in the first quarter of the race.
Statement from the Lake Campaign:
“Carrie Lake is helping everyone, posting a very significant amount of fundraising during the first quarter of the race. Arizona is the Senate Republicans' best chance, and Carrie is well positioned to win in November.
Statement from Senator Barrasso:
“Carrie Lake does everything a U.S. Senate candidate needs to do to win. She connects with voters across Arizona, lays out focused policy priorities, communicates clearly with voters, and we now know how to build strong financial support for her race. Carrie Lake has just built A quarter of fundraising shows she has the support and momentum to win this race.
Statement from NRSC Chairman Steve Daines:
“Lake Cary has strong public support that clearly translates into fundraising success.”
With nearly 20,000 donations, averaging $100 each, Lake has won over a grassroots base of patriots who just want their country back.
However, it doesn't matter how much money you raise, how well you do in the polls, or even how many people vote for you when criminals run elections.
Gateway Pundit will continue to provide updates on Kari Lake's US Senate campaign and expected fraud in the 2024 election.
