"...the Complaint’s allegations are sorely wanting of relevant or reliable evidence, and Plaintiffs’ invocation of this Court’s limited jurisdiction is severely strained."

"...the Complaint’s allegations are sorely wanting of relevant or reliable evidence, and Plaintiffs’ invocation of this Court’s limited jurisdiction is severely strained."
Powell's Arizona federal election failed for many of the same reasons judges elsewhere have rejected her cases:
- no standing to sue
- claims should be in state court
- state officials immune per 11th Amend.
- laches (unreasonable delay in filing)
- moot (already certified)
- no standing to sue

- state officials immune per 11th Amend.

The judge was extremely unimpressed by Powell's evidence:
"The allegations they put forth to support their claims of fraud fail in their particularity and plausibility. Plaintiffs append over three hundred pages of attachments, which are only impressive for their volume."
"The allegations they put forth to support their claims of fraud fail in their particularity and plausibility. Plaintiffs append over three hundred pages of attachments, which are only impressive for their volume."
Judge Humetewa: "The various affidavits and expert reports are largely based on anonymous witnesses, hearsay, and irrelevant analysis of unrelated elections. Because the Complaint is grounded in these fraud allegations, the Complaint shall be dismissed."
Re: the conspiracy theory of a scheme to hack/manipulate ballots through Dominion voting systems, the judge writes: "Rather, what is present is a lengthy collection of phrases beginning with the words 'could have, possibly, might,' and 'may have.'"
