Kirk’s Endorsement of Biggs Could Shift Arizona’s Gubernatorial Race
Conservative commentator Charlie Kirk’s recent endorsement of Representative Andy Biggs in Arizona’s upcoming gubernatorial race could significantly impact the GOP primary. With the 2026 midterms approaching, the Arizona election is crucial for Republicans eager to unseat Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs, who narrowly defeated Kari Lake in the 2022 election. Polling suggests this race will be highly competitive, as Arizona is a pivotal swing state.
A recent survey from Noble Predictive Insights indicates that Karrin Taylor Robson currently leads the Republican primary with 24% support, while both Biggs and Kirk trail with 17% each. Kirk’s endorsement may help Biggs tap into the younger, digital-savvy base of supporters from his organization, Turning Point USA. Mike Noble of NPI highlighted that Kirk’s backing could be game-changing for Biggs, as it aligns their ideological profiles.
As the primary on August 4, 2026, approaches, the dynamics are heating up. Former President Donald Trump has also endorsed both Biggs and Robson, adding another layer to an already competitive field. With polls classifying the race as a toss-up, Republicans are gearing up for a vigorous contest.
