With gubernatorial primaries in the rearview mirror Arizonans have a choice between pro-Second Amendment Kari Lake (R) and pro-gun control Katie Hobbs (D).
Lake is a political outsider who jumped into the gubernatorial race for the purpose of protecting Second Amendment rights, among other issues.
Hobbs has been in politics for years and is on record with her support for more restrictions on the exercise of the Second Amendment.
On June 28, Breitbart News published an interview with Lake in which she praised the Supreme Court of the United States’ June 23, 2022, ruling recognizing Americans’ right to carry a gun in public for self-defense.
“I was so thrilled with the Supreme Court ruling recognizing our right to carry,” Lake said.
She added, “Several states had already passed additional laws to hedge in that right, but they really shouldn’t have to, because the Second Amendment is pretty darn clear. We live in a dangerous world. We’ve got to be able to protect ourselves. So this Supreme Court ruling came at just the right time.”
Lake made clear her hope that the SCOTUS ruling will “help undo a lot of the restrictive gun control laws everywhere.”
Hobbs, on the other hand, said she was “outraged” over the June 23, 2022, SCOTUS ruling, saying:
Like the majority of Americans, Arizonans, and gun owners who support responsible and reasonable safety measures, I am outraged at today’s Supreme Court ruling. As we continue to witness heinous killings across the U.S., including right here in Arizona, leaders continue to refuse to take action, and the Supreme Court’s decision makes protecting our communities that much more difficult.
Hobbs then pushed for more gun control:
As a mom, I share the concern of my fellow parents who are living in fear every day that their child won’t come home from school or

On October 12, 2018, Gabby Giffords’ gun control group endorsed Hobbs to be the Arizona secretary of state, saying, in part, “Katie Hobbs acknowledges the toll of gun violence in our state, and she has worked to stop it. Her leadership – on issues from ballot access to gun violence – will be critical for creating change in Arizona. Giffords is proud to endorse Katie Hobbes, who has the courage to stand up to the corporate gun lobby and who will never stop working to save lives.”
In November Arizonans can choose pro-Second Amendment Kari Lake (R) or pro-gun control Katie Hobbs (D).
Uhh, Alex I’ll take Freedom for $100.
On the upside, at least we don’t need to wait for pictures of the candidates naked to make up our minds...😳
If Katie can just save one chil....never mind.
In my opinion, most in AZ I have dealt with are thoroughly disgusted and PO’d by all this epic government corruption, fraud and intrusion.
From my perspective, Hobbs gets nuked come November.
“Uhh, Alex I’ll take Freedom for $100.”
And here’s where to send that $100!!!
Nice web page she has. Looks like the money goes to her and not siphoned off to the GOPee.
The Soro/Socialists are gearing up to steal the November governors’ election in Arizona, and the senate seat of Ron Johnson in Wisconsin.
Where is the limp-wristed Republican leadership in the House and Senate ?
I would imagine so. The GOPee hates Kari Lake and pretty much anyone supported by Donald Trump.
Yes exactly, where are they?
I think Kari Lake is on to something in how to run a campaign. Grassroot populism will defeat the Globalists.
Senate race is just as gun focused, if Masters will do it.
Even Dems in Az like their Constitutional carry...
“Lake told Breitbart News in June...And when I am governor we are simply not going to recognize any federal statutes that are infringing on our rights.”
Lake gets it. States are sovereign and can tell the federal fascists to take their illegal diktats and stuff it. That’s how you take back the country from the weenie deep state.
The entire state and most of the country will be watching. No more subverting the vote here without intense analysis and scrutiny. Wide scale cheating happened because too many weren’t paying attention. That’s all changed.
Not really a choice for any real American who loves freedom.
Anyone who thinks guns causes violence is a damn’d idiot.
He (Rossi) ran for Governor of Washington in 2004, losing to DemocRAT Christine Gregoire (Pronounced / sounds like Greg-wire) by just 129 votes in the closest gubernatorial election in the history of the United States. Proving, it's not who get's to vote, it's who count's the vote's.
And where did they find the necessary vote's for the win (after knowing just how many votes were needed) during the third count, where else, but commie central, Seattle, otherwise known as the San-Fran-Freak-O of the north.
Is this a great country, or what. Epstein didn't kill himself, and Trump won in 2020.
