Party officials from across the state gathered in Phoenix for a long scheduled meeting and to select a replacement for Jeff DeWit, who stood down after DailyMail.com published a recording of the moment he apparently offered Lake a bribe not to run again.
But the secret audio has divided the party. While some have applauded Lake, a firebrand hardliner who is close to Donald Trump, others accused her of secretly wearing a wire to set up DeWit.
Witnesses said she was booed for a minute as she tried to make the case for Gina Swoboda to be elected chair of the Arizona party.
The outbursts reflect the crisis facing the Arizona party, as different wings squabble over who is to blame for fundraising problems.
After DeWit resigned, Trump canceled an appearance at the party's 'Freedom Fest' on Friday, which would have brought in hundreds of thousands of dollars in a crucial election year.

Aren’t we already there?
Arizona is a one-party state, which means only one person in a conversation is required to know the it is being recorded.
I live in Texas, which is also a one-party state. Anyone can buy an app that records all your calls, and you can save them to your computer or phone. You can also list phone numbers of people for which you do not record. The app is inexpensive, and it has come in handy on more than a few occasions.
Nice tip...thanks
What I wonder is how many other GOPe people she has recorded; probably many others.
How does one accomplish putting her out to pasture when she won’t take a bribe and the little people want her in office? Rig another election?
what CA GOP.... they hide and suck their thumbs
“Did she ever release the recording for independent verification?”
It was verified when the guy resigned without a fight.
Kari has all the right enemies. Trump’s presidency and the emergence of MAGA have set off a reaction from the entrenched political interests that has made it crystal clear that, no matter their party affiliation, they only care about their selfish personal power and influence, and not one bit about what is best for the country. It should be obvious by now that the Republican Party cannot be reformed from the inside. It is far too corrupted for that. It must be demolished and replaced.
those were not real republicans
therefore no republicans boied her. they were morons , rinos, dem and commies in drag, turncoats and flat out traitors who want to see the destruction of our country.
jmho
ymmv
OK ... maybe she did "secretly wear a wire". So???
Did this DeWit character offer her a bribe? Yes?
Some people are more upset about a crime being exposed than a crime being committed. Says a lot about such people.
It’s because most of these charlatans are very enamored of the second-tier power Democrats deign to give them. It’s a lot less work than actually standing for your constituents and their rights.
Your conspiracy mind is working overtime. Triple pay for you.
When people intentionally vote early, they aid and abet Deep State.
Heard on the radio today here in Phoenix that Guevara (democrat running for the senate seat) shouted out that his campaign is in dire need of funds and that he was currently 6 points down to Lake in the polls. I Don’t even know about Kirsten Sinema who is the current senator and rerunning on the independent ticket.
