Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
Republican Mayor Endorses Katie Hobbs
In another showing of Katie Hobbs’ strong bipartisan support, Mesa Republican Mayor John Giles is endorsing Katie Hobbs for governor.
Giles, who leads Arizona’s third largest city, said in a press conference, “it’s pretty clear to me that Katie Hobbs is a better candidate…Katie Hobbs is more qualified, she’s focused on the issues.”
This is just the latest of Hobbs’ support from across the political spectrum. Last weekend, Mayor Giles and Hobbs stood shoulder to shoulder with high-profile Arizona Republicans who touted their support for her candidacy, including former state legislators and Arizona business leaders.
It’s clearer than ever that Kari Lake has a party problem. Former GOP Gov. Jan Brewer has even suggested she won’t be voting for Lake and said Lake’s toxic claims left her “speechless.” Previously, Liz Cheney said in a visit to Arizona that she’d vote for Katie Hobbs over Kari Lake.
“Republicans, Democrats and Independents are rejecting Kari Lake’s toxic agenda and backing Katie Hobbs because they know they can count on her to govern for all Arizonans,” said DGA Senior Communications Advisor Christina Amestoy. “With just weeks until Election Day, Hobbs is bringing people together around her positive vision for the state, while Kari Lake continues to divide and distract with the same extremism and conspiracies she’s touted her entire campaign.”
