Hobbs was elected Arizona Governor in 2022.

She won her election by 0.67%, or 17,117 votes.

Hobbs narrowly beat conspiracy theorist Kari Lake, who is a passionate promoter of the big lie that Donald Trump actually won the 2020 presidential election, but the election was stolen from him.

Hobbs (D) received 50.3% of the vote, and Lake (R) received 49.6%.

@VOANews This kind of ticker tape pollution presented as "news" is a crime against human sanity. Just why??

Is there any value in "informing" people that this was blurted out by the #trump scriptwriters?

The entire #maga has been propagandizing this attack as an "immigrant crime caused by #Biden" but this is what a still-credible outlet presents, to normalize things??

The never-elected maga sycophant #karilake looms ever larger... 😬

Now that #KariLake has been appointed to run #VoiceOfAmerica it's worth reading this article about what happened to that organization under the "leadership" of #MichaelPack (a colleague of #JohnEastman at #ClaremontInstitute) during the last Trump administration.

#VOA also has a Mastodon account @VOANews so we'll be able to watch Ms. Lake spew #propaganda in real time.

“ President-elect Donald Trump announced Wednesday night that he had picked Kari Lake, a former newscaster who lost two statewide races in Arizona in 2022 and 2024, to lead the Voice of America. The move places one of his staunchest loyalists at the helm of the taxpayer-funded broadcaster that provides independent news reporting around the world.” azmirror.com/briefs/after-losi

Oh geez. Opposite World.

#Trump chose #KariLake, the former TV news anchor turned election denier who lost races for senator and governor of Arizona, to lead Voice of America, a federally funded broadcaster that aims to offer unbiased news to audiences around the world.“

The New York Times · Trump Transition Live Updates: Kari Lake Chosen to Lead Voice of AmericaBy Nathan Willis

In yet another state that went for Donald Trump, the Democratic candidate for U.S. scraped by with a close victory.

@motherjonesmag reports on how Ruben Gallego defeated Arizona’s most vociferous election-denier, Republican Kari Lake.

Mother JonesHow Ruben Gallego defeated election-denier Kari Lake in Arizona's nail-biter Senate raceGallego won by pivoting. Lake lost because she insisted on digging in her MAGA-red heels.

Look the fascists are here and they are in control and that is the reality we must face together, no one can save us from this but ourselves.

...But I'm apparently too autistic to not let my brain get stuck on the fact that so many down ballot Democrats won despite Trump winning the top of the ballot. It makes no sense and I hate it.
