AINews Summary
Last updatedJun 11, 2026
Andy Biggs is now the frontrunner in Arizona’s 2026 Republican governor primary, with the race set to decide who will challenge Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs. He has been actively campaigning on taxes, immigration, and criticism of the current state administration, while also trying to distance himself from 2020 election controversy. Recent polling still shows Hobbs ahead in a general-election matchup, and analysts say the race remains competitive.
