Andy Biggs, the leading Republican candidate for Arizona governor, likes to tell supporters about the time he teamed up with the late Sen. John McCain to pass a law that helped American Indian tribes send alerts when children go missing.\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=6702\">When US troops die, Trump often reaches quickly for politics<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            It\u2019s a line in his stump speech that would be unremarkable if not for how other recent Republican hopefuls in Arizona treated the iconic senator\u2019s legacy.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Kari Lake, the Republican nominee for governor in 2022, famously encouraged McCain Republicans to \u201cget the hell out\u201d of one of her campaign events. That same year, Senate nominee Blake Masters declared it was \u201cnot (McCain\u2019s) Republican Party in Arizona anymore.\u201d Both lost.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Biggs\u2019 embrace of McCain offers an early glimpse into how he intends to navigate one of the central challenges he faces if Republicans nominate him for Arizona governor in Tuesday\u2019s primary election, as expected. A hardline conservative endorsed by President Donald Trump and a central figure in the effort to overturn the 2020 election, Biggs carries similarities with recent MAGA stalwarts who energized the Republican base \u2014 and were ultimately rejected by a majority of Arizona voters.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Whether Biggs can convince voters he\u2019s a different kind of Trump Republican than Lake and Masters could determine if the GOP can unseat Gov. Katie Hobbs, the country\u2019s most vulnerable Democratic incumbent, or if it extends the party\u2019s string of narrow defeats in one of the nation\u2019s premier battleground states.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cI don\u2019t believe Arizona is a blue state or even a purple state. It is a red state,\u201d Biggs told CNN Friday as he shook hands with supporters at a get-out-the-vote rally. \u201cWe just have to remind people.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            At the very least, the state is a redder shade of purple, with about 300,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats. Operatives on both sides of the aisle believe the state leans to the right, and Trump\u2019s 6.5-point victory here two years ago \u2014 his largest margin among the seven battleground states \u2014 gives Republicans reason for optimism.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            But Lake also lost a Senate bid in that same election, an outcome that deepened the frustration of Republicans who have watched their power diminish in a state they long dominated. It also underscored the existence of potentially hundreds of thousands of ticket splitters up for grab this November in a state where 1-in-3 voters aren\u2019t registered to a political party.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Rep. David Schweikert, who is running against Biggs in Tuesday\u2019s primary, has argued Republicans can\u2019t afford to gamble on another Trump-backed MAGA warrior. Schweikert has repeatedly won one of Arizona\u2019s most competitive congressional districts and says he would bring that track record into a general election likely to be decided by the state\u2019s growing bloc of independent voters.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            During the race\u2019s lone debate last month, he posed a question directly to Republicans watching at home.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cAre you tired of losing?\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        A long conservative record, for better or worse\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            On stage, Biggs doesn\u2019t project as the kind of firebrand Lake became during her campaigns. A former local television anchor, Lake regularly generated headlines with bombastic statements that raised eyebrows even within her own party. Nor is he as outspoken as Masters, a venture capitalist who carried into the campaign a trail of unapologetically strident and controversial views that dogged his Senate bid.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            A lawyer and a 67-year-old grandfather, Biggs is a Fox News regular who rarely uses oratorical flourishes. His voice is typically measured; his rhetoric comparatively unprovocative.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cHe\u2019s no Kari Lake and that does cut both ways,\u201d said Barrett Marson, a veteran GOP strategist in Arizona. \u201cThe coverage of her wasn\u2019t positive, but sometimes getting your name out there is half the battle. Biggs barely commands the local TV stations. He\u2019s unexciting.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Marson, though, added: \u201cBut also unlike Kari, he\u2019s a true conservative, and he has a long record, sometimes to his detriment.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            As the chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, Biggs has served as one of Trump\u2019s most reliable allies while also regularly frustrating House leadership with his hardline positions. Before joining Congress, he spent 14 years in the state legislature, where he earned a reputation as one of the state\u2019s most conservative lawmakers.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium_large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Rep.

Franklin\/AP<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            That record has endeared him to voters in his ruby-red district, and it helped him secure the backing of Turning Point, the youth-focused political organization founded by the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Before he was killed last September, Kirk personally backed Biggs and his group, based in the Phoenix area, has vowed to put its political muscle behind the congressman, including a ballot-chasing operation that helped Trump win in 2024. Biggs has touted Kirk\u2019s support in television advertisements.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Tyler Bowyer, who leads Turning Point\u2019s political arm, said its operation wouldn\u2019t be as effective behind another nominee.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cYou have to have a candidate that the grassroots wants to support,\u201d Bowyer said, \u201cand we have that in Andy.\u201d\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=6700\">More teens are using generative AI to make explicit content.

One candidate, Scott Neely, has published a list of times Biggs opposed \u201clegislation to protect sexual abuse survivors,\u201d including his House committee vote against subpoenaing the Epstein files. In campaign mailers, Schweikert has criticized Biggs for appearing alongside College Republicans United, a far-right group for young conservatives, and the Proud Boys, a white nationalist militia group.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Schweikert, however, has lacked the resources to consistently air that message on television, nor has he aggressively challenged Biggs on the campaign trail. Other candidates have failed to gain traction.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Biggs, meanwhile, has emphasized less contentious legislation from his career, highlighting not only his work with McCain, but also with former Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, a Democrat-turned-independent, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Rep. Ro Khanna, the California progressive. He has focused his attack on Hobbs, criticizing her frequent use of the veto and accusing her of not working with lawmakers to address rising costs.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cI\u2019ve demonstrated that you can be a conservative, a principled conservative, and get things done,\u201d he told his supporters Friday.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium_large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A woman sports a campaign button that reads \u201cBiggs Governor\u201d during a rally in support Rep.

She and their son Jimmy are scheduled to host a pair of fundraisers for Hobbs in September.\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        An election denier in charge?\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            Hobbs has already spent months positioning her reelection bid toward winning independent voters. She has spent $7 million on campaign ads since May with a centrist message largely focused on affordability and reintroducing herself to Arizonians.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            With Biggs on the cusp of winning the nomination, she and Democrats are preparing to remind Arizona voters of his record. At a campaign stop Monday in Phoenix, Hobbs noted Biggs\u2019 opposition to Medicaid expansion in Arizona, his past statements on abortion and his role in helping Trump stop the certification of the election.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The House committee that investigated the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol reported that Biggs urged Trump not to concede and tried to organize Republican lawmakers in the state to support a pro-Trump slate of electors. Former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson testified that Biggs was among a handful of Republicans who asked Trump for a pardon for their role in halting the certification of the election. Biggs has repeatedly denied the claim.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cIf Andy Biggs becomes governor, Arizona will be the first swing state with an election denier in charge,\u201d said Hobbs, who oversaw the 2020 election as Arizona secretary of state at the time. \u201cAnd the time to stop that is not 2028. It is right now.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium_large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Arizona Gov.

Asked if he thinks questions about the 2020 election should be debated this fall, Biggs told CNN: \u201cI\u2019m looking forward.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cI think we will have a great election,\u201d he added.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            His supporters, though, aren\u2019t ready to move on. A local elected leader who spoke before Biggs at Friday\u2019s rally notably said Hobbs was \u201cnamed\u201d \u2014 not elected \u2014 governor in 2022. One attendee, Ed Runge, said Republicans have lost recent statewide contests because of \u201cthe elephant in the room \u2014 the integrity of the elections.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Runge said he still had \u201chis doubts\u201d about whether Lake and Masters lost. Multiple reviews and audits of the 2022 and 2024 elections have affirmed the results.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Nor has Trump stopped talking about the 2020 election, as reflected by his recent national address and his calls on Congress to overhaul election systems and require proof of citizenship to vote.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            More attention could be brought to the issue if Biggs is joined on the ticket by state Rep. Alexander Kolodin, a lawyer who represented several high-profile efforts to challenge Arizona\u2019s 2020 election results and is running for secretary of state. He faces Gina Swoboda, the former executive director the Arizona Republican Party who has Trump\u2019s support but hasn\u2019t fixated on past elections.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            It\u2019s unclear, though, if Hobbs will attempt to confront Biggs directly on this history. Hobbs declined to debate Lake in 2022 before narrowly defeating her and would not commit Monday to debating Biggs this fall.\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=6692\">House Democrats launch investigation into whether Jeffrey Epstein acted as a foreign agent<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cThere\u2019s plenty of time to talk about that in the coming weeks,\u201d Hobbs told CNN.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Biggs\u2019 campaign said he would welcome a debate.\n    <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fronrunner for the GOP nomination for governor hopes he fares better than MAGA-aligned Blake Masters and Kari Lake did in their recent statewide contests.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6703,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6710","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>MAGA candidates keep losing in Arizona.
