Arizona's GOP candidates spend big early on ads

A political action committee supporting Andy Biggs has launched a $500,000 advertising campaign in Arizona's Republican gubernatorial primary, over a year before the election. The ads will run for 3.5 weeks. The Turning Point PAC's media buy aims to boost Biggs's campaign with strategic placements on cable, radio, and digital platforms. Biggs is running against Karrin Taylor Robson, who has also invested heavily in advertising. The early ad spending highlights the expected competitiveness of the Arizona governor's race, which is considered a toss-up. Both Biggs and Robson have received endorsements from former President Donald Trump.
