CBS News Projects Katie Hobbs Reelection in Arizona Governor’s Race
Hobbs won a second term after a close race against Trump-backed Rep. Andy Biggs, who promoted conspiracy theories about the 2020 election.
- On Tuesday, Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs won reelection, defeating Republican opponent Rep. Andy Biggs, as CBS News projected the victory securing her another four years in office.
- Biggs, a former chair of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, challenged the 2020 election results on Jan. 6, 2021, and faced scrutiny for efforts to overturn the vote.
- Republicans dubbed Hobbs the "veto queen" after she issued over 100 vetoes in her first year alone; her campaign faced allegations regarding preferential treatment for a donor, which she denied.
- Hobbs' running mate, former Mesa Mayor John Giles, becomes Arizona's first lieutenant governor, a newly created position replacing the secretary of state as the designated successor.
- Although Arizona has shifted toward a purple status, Hobbs remains one of the few Democratic governors leading a state that President Donald Trump won in 2024.
