Republican voters selected Representative Andy Biggs to challenge incumbent Governor Katie Hobbs in the general election. Biggs and other Trump-endorsed candidates secured victories across the state, including nominations for the House and the top election official. The primary results solidified a Republican ticket featuring several candidates who have questioned the 2020 election results. Former professional athlete Jay Feely also won his primary as part of the success for candidates aligned with the former president. These outcomes suggest a continued shift toward Trump-aligned leadership within the state party. The matchup between Biggs and Hobbs sets the stage for a contest as Republicans attempt to reclaim the governor's office. Voters supported Trump-backed candidates in several races throughout the night.
