Phoenix, AZ, October 19, 2026 —
Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs has spent millions of dollars more than Republican challenger Andy Biggs in the state’s governor’s race, according to the latest campaign finance reports. The spending gap grows further when expenditures by outside political groups are included.
The summary of the reports does not provide specific totals for either candidate or for outside groups. It also does not identify the reporting period, the groups involved, or how much those groups spent in support of or opposition to either candidate. The reports’ release date was not provided.
The figures distinguish candidate campaign spending from spending by outside organizations. Including both categories makes the overall disparity larger, though the available information does not quantify the difference or explain which expenses account for it.
Hobbs is the incumbent governor, while Biggs is identified as her Republican challenger. The information provided does not describe either campaign’s response to the reports, detail fundraising totals, or specify how the spending was allocated.
The latest reports show a substantial spending difference between the campaigns, but additional figures would be needed to establish its exact size and composition. No further details about the candidates’ campaign finances were included in the available summary.
