Arizona Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs said on Thursday that for a second consecutive election, she will not participate in a debate.

Hobbs previously refused to participate in her primary and general election debates in 2022 before she stole the election from Trump-endorsed Kari Lake.

In a statement, Hobbs’ campaign manager Nicole DeMont told 12 News, “We respectfully decline debate invitations in this campaign because face-to-face engagement with Arizonans is more effective than a stage designed for short soundbites and political theater.”


quote:

Drew Sexton, a Senior Advisor to Andy Biggs, slammed Hobbs in a statement to The Gateway Pundit, highlighting her past corruption scandals and noting that Biggs will still participate in the scheduled debate.

They’re hiding Katie away like the Dems hid Joe in 2020. They seem to think that’s a winning strategy. And it is, when you cheat.

There’s no way there won’t be fraud in this one with her likely winning. It’s how she got in power in the first place.

Katie Hobbs will school anyone with her White Board.
All she has to do is bring it out.

They are waiting for the lay up.

And she will still win. Biggs is another terrible GOP candidate.

I don’t understand why her opponent won’t demand they set it up and if the wench doesn’t show, just have a political open mike night and roast her with the moderators all “debate” long

So right. Let’s meet up at the Julia Letlow debate so we can talk about this democratic strategy.

No one is stopping you from doing both.

We have a lot of delusional people here who refuse to accept the reality that she will win this time by even more.

The difference obviously being that Letlow's opponent can't win. By contrast, Arizona absolutely could go for Biggs.

A lot of us here actually agree with this. I know you aren't familiar but some people are capable of setting aside political bias.
