National Journal is just the latest election outlet to acknowledge what we’ve been saying all along: This is going to be the most competitive governor’s race of 2026.

Here’s what the Journal is saying about this race:

➡️ “On paper, Arizona seems like a red state.”
In the 2024 presidential election, Arizona swung toward Donald Trump by over 5 points — more than any other battleground state in the country. And there’s no doubt: there are more registered Republicans in Arizona than Democrats, so that makes winning here especially difficult.

➡️ “Arizona remains a top GOP target.”
In 2024, Donald Trump campaigned in Arizona repeatedly and made it clear that he thinks our state is Trump country. He’s already endorsed TWO of Katie’s three GOP opponents — a calculated MAGA power play designed to ensure that he has a rubber stamp for his extreme agenda in the Governor's office.

➡️ “Hobbs faces the toughest reelection bid for a Democrat in 2026.”
Katie won by just 17,117 votes in 2022 — less than 1% of the vote. The political odds are stacked against her. But with a grassroots team like this one, she can prove the pundits wrong, win re-election, and continue delivering real progress for Arizonans.

John, will you chip in $10 or any amount right now? This race is a true toss-up, and that means there’s just a 50/50 chance Katie wins re-election. With odds like that, she can’t win without support from people like you.
