The Arizona gubernatorial race is heating up in the Republican primary, as candidates attempt to distinguish themselves from each other. Former news anchor Kari Lake, who is leading in polling and has Donald Trump’s endorsement, has been calling out Karrin Taylor Robson’s record, referring to her as “Doug Ducey in a dress.” Lake is highly critical of Ducey’s record on COVID-19 restrictions, lack of action on border security, and, she says, being weak on election integrity.

Lake told The Arizona Sun Times, “Karrin Taylor Robson is the exact opposite of whatever she claims to be. She claims to be a single mother, while she hides her 95-year-old husband from the public. She claims to be tough on the border, when in reality she is an open-borders globalist. She claims to be pro-life, yet her record proves that she supports infanticide. If she ever claims to be a Vegetarian, every beef cow in Arizona should run and hide.”
Taylor Robson opposed SB 1457, the pro-life legislation which bans aborting babies due to genetic abnormalities such as Down syndrome this past legislative session. While serving on the governing board for the state’s public universities (Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University, and the University of Arizona), she argued the measure could affect university contracts. The bill ultimately passed the legislature and was signed into law.
