The Arizona GOP will host its first Republican Party-sponsored 2022 primary debate moderated by AZGOP Chairwoman Dr. Kelli Ward tonight at 6 pm at East Valley Institute of Technology in Mesa.
Tonight’s debate for Arizona Secretary of State is between Trump-Endorsed State Representative Mark Finchem and State Representative Shawnna Bolick.
Arizona’s stolen 2020 Presidential Election should be a major topic in this debate between candidates for Arizona’s Chief Elections Officer.
The debates will take place through June 20th, featuring candidates for Arizona Corporation Commission, Superintendent of Public Instruction, and Attorney General. Tickets are available here.
The previously scheduled AZGOP-sponsored debate for Arizona Governor was canceled because only Trump-endorsed frontrunner Kari Lake agreed to debate. The AZGOP told The Gateway Pundit that Matt Salmon declined his invitation, and Karrin Taylor Robson did not even respond.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Lake agreed to allow Salmon and Robson to know all of the questions in advance and take notes up on stage with them, but it appears they were still too scared to debate Kari Lake in front of Republican voters.
