With just over a year to go before the 2026 midterm election, candidates for Arizona’s statewide office have already amassed millions of dollars, with incumbent Gov. Katie Hobbs leading the way.
The Democrat raked in $1.4 million in contributions during the third quarter of 2025, from July 1 to Sept. 30, according to campaign finance reports that were due Oct. 15.
She adds that to the $3.3 million she already raised this year, which she said is more than any other gubernatorial candidate in a non-election year, leaving her with $5.4 million in cash on hand.
“Arizonans are rallying behind Katie Hobbs because they know she’s focused on delivering results — lowering costs, securing the border, and solving problems,” Nicole DeMont, Hobbs’ campaign said in a statement. “While her opponents are locked in a contest for desperate approval from Washington, Katie Hobbs is bringing Republicans, Democrats, and Independents together to move Arizona forward.”
