Poll: Kari Lake Leads Arizona Republican Gubernatorial Primary by 12 Points [Trump Endorsed]
Breitbart ^

Posted on 06/19/2022 12:04:33 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

Kari Lake is the frontrunner in Arizona’s Republican gubernatorial primary election with a 12-point lead over her closest challenger, according to a new Trafalgar Group poll.

The poll found that 38.5 percent of likely Arizona GOP primary voters support Lake.

Arizona voters are likely familiar with Lake because she was a Phoenix Fox 10 news anchor.

In addition, Lake is endorsed by former President Donald Trump. “Kari will make her wonderful family, and the MAGA movement, very proud. Kari Lake has my Complete and Total Endorsement. She will be a great Governor for the incredible people of Arizona,” Trump said in his endorsement.

A key pillar of Lake’s campaign is securing the nation’s southern border. The Republican candidate for governor has pledged to make a “Declaration of Invasion” on her first day in office with the intent to close the open border. She also plans to enter into an interstate compact with other states to circumvent federal immigration and border policies if elected.

Lake recently tweeted a clip of Breitbart News founder Andrew Breitbart as her “message to the media.”

Trafalgar Group’s poll found that the next closest candidate is Karrin Taylor Robson, who earned 26.7 support from Arizona Republican voters.

Trailing Lake and Robson is Matt Salmon with 14.7 percent and Paola “Z.” Tulliani-Zen with 1.8 percent.

An additional 17.4 percent of voters remain undecided ahead of the state’s August 2 GOP primary.

I saw a street sign that said Kari Lake donated to Obama.

If her walk is as good as her talk, she’ll be a shining star right up there with DeSantis.

I think, she is OK. Her signs show her with Trump.
I sort of like Matt Salmon, who founded the House freedom Caucus and is really proven conservative. But, I think, he does not have the money.

Karrin Robson lost me. She is using her fortune on adds screwing Lake. I just do not like negative campaigning targeting fellow conservative.

There’s something fishy about Salmon.
Seriously, though, I heard an extended interview of her and she sounded solid

This will be interesting:

“But soon after, Rick Stevens, one of the area’s best known drag artists who goes by the name Barbra Seville at theaters, bars and parties, says he has held parties at Lake’s home.

He posted photos to his social media of Lake posing with him and other drag performers - and similar pictures, dated 2012 and 2014, are posted to Lake’s social media. They were captioned: ‘Half of what I know about makeup, I learned from watching friends like @BarbraSeville.’...

‘Richard’s accusations were full of lies,’ she said in a statement to Arizona Central.

‘The event in question was a party at someone else’s house and the performer was there as a Marilyn Monroe impersonator. It wasn’t a drag show, and the issue we’re talking about isn’t adults attending drag shows either.”

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10931723/Drag-queen-accuses-candidate-hypocrisy-revealing-performed-daughter.html

My perspective? Who should I believe - a political activist drag queen, or Kari Lake? I think there is enough evidence overall to believe that Kari Lake wasn’t particularly conservative prior to 2016. I do think, however, that she’d fight harder for the people voting for her than the establishment types attacking her 24/7 on the airwaves...and who always seem to attack conservatives with a gusto they cannot muster against Demoncrats!

If you have to come here asking for advise maybe you should rethink even voting.

“I saw a street sign that said Kari Lake donated to Obama.”

She did and according to her, it was not only a donation of hope, but also out of disgust with the Republicrats and John McCain.

Go Kari Lake, You have my vote.

Kari Lake (38.5%) is endorsed by Donald Trump
Karrin Taylor Robson (26.7%) is endorsed former AZ Governor Jan Brewer
Matt Salmon (14.7%) is endorsed by former Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu
Paola “Z.” Tulliani-Zen (1.8% is endorsed by..........Paola “Z.” Tulliani-Zen? maybe

Like Trump in 2016, Kari is saying what we, the voters want to hear. So far She has my vote and a few bucks, but there is still a month and a half before the primary. Let’s see how she holds up to the pressures.
so far so good
Go Kari Lake

“I sort of like Matt Salmon, who founded the House freedom Caucus and is really proven conservative.”

My biggest negative with Salmon is he is a career politician who has spent the last 30 years in office, running for an office or getting prepared to run for the next higher office.

She does not deny supporting Obama. In response she says Trump was a democrat for decades and he changed.

The funniest one is her ad stating Lake claimed to be a "lifetime member" (Life Member) of the NRA...but she only joined last year!

One of Robson's staffers needs to be terminated over that one - for making her look like an idiot.

Lake should be fine - she's a newly converted true believer, yes, but she has the celebrity and TV presence to sweep aside Democrat opposition in November. Not in any way the usual bumbling RINO once the cameras go on.

You will have to ask one of his supporters. I do not really know.
Well, I guess he was one of the original members of the Freedom Caucus.

On a side note with Kari Lake she has the greatest sounding voice in politics today.
