Lake, Robson In Tight GOP Primary For Governor In Arizona

Former news anchor Kari Lake and development attorney Karrin Taylor Robson are separated by a slim margin in the contentious race for governor.

Arizona Republicans were deciding Tuesday between a well-known former news anchor and a development attorney in the race for governor of a crucial battleground state.

Former President Donald Trump backed Kari Lake, who walked away from her nearly three-decade career in television news and embraced his lies about the 2020 election. She faced Karrin Taylor Robson, who was backed by prominent Republicans around the country looking to push their party to move on from Trump.

The race was too early to call, with Lake and Robson separated by a slim margin.
