Arizona Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to revive a lawsuit that aims to eliminate the use of electronic voting machines in the United States.

The lawsuit, originally filed when Lake was a candidate for governor of Arizona, was dismissed in August 2022. The district court judge overseeing the matter later sanctioned the plaintiffs for making “false, misleading, and unsupported factual assertions” in their filings. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal in October 2023.

The appeal to the nine justices begins with a paean to fears that computerized voting might run roughshod over democracy.

“Public distrust in elections is at an all-time high and growing,” the petition for writ of certiorari reads. “Although electronic voting machines were meant to remedy snafus like the 2000 Florida recount, the flaws that petitioners unearthed in electronic voting machines make hanging chads — the very problem the machines were meant to solve — seem like a blessing. At least there, humans could see and touch ballots and punch cards. By turning elections over to black boxes running software outside the public domain, we surrendered the ability to meaningfully verify the election process.”
