Dems fear Kari Lake could be Arizona's governor—and a major MAGA star

Democratic Party strategists are watching Arizona's Kari Lake with growing alarm.

Why it matters: As some see it, Lake — a 2020 election denier — could easily win the state's gubernatorial race and threaten its 2024 election processes. And with the talent she's already displayed even as a political novice, they see her potential to soar to a vice presidential spot or a post-Trump presidential candidacy.

The polls are neck-and-neck. Some Democrats are venting frustration that Katie Hobbs is not presenting a stronger challenge to Lake. Hobbs has refused to debate Lake, which some say signals fear and amounts to "political malpractice."

“Why it matters: As some see it, Lake — a 2020 election denier …”

Why is it that we never hear Stacey Abrams called a “2018 election denier” or Hillary Clinton a “2016 election diner” or Al Gore a “2000 election denier?”
