TRUMP ALLY KARI LAKE LOSES TO DEMOCRAT KATIE HOBBS IN ARIZONA GOVERNOR’S RACE

Democratic candidate Katie Hobbs has defeated Republican Kari Lake in Arizona’s race for governor, CBS News has projected.

The result is a rebuke of Ms. Lake, who has peddled the false claim that Donald Trump won the 2020 US election.

In her victory statement, Ms Hobbs said that “in this moment of division” she would work for everyone in the state.

Ms Lake appeared to suggest that the result was incorrect, and that some votes for her had not been counted.

Republicans must win at least 218 seats to claim a majority in the House of Representatives, a prospect that has sharply narrowed
