Detailed Factual Report
Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs will win the governor's race, CBS News projects, besting Rep. Andy Biggs, who was backed by President Trump and has promoted conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election.
Hobbs narrowly won the 2022 election by just 17,000 votes over Republican Kari Lake. Her race was considered to be one of the toughest for Democrats to win.
She faced one of the president's top allies in Congress, and Mr. Trump, who won Arizona by five points in 2024, had gone to the state to campaign for him.
During her term, she has had to work with a GOP majority in both houses of the legislature, earning the nickname the "veto queen" from Republicans after she issued over 100 vetoes in her first year alone and 88 in a single day earlier this year.
