Democrat Katie Hobbs is projected to win her race against Republican Kari Lake, ABC News reports, flipping the Arizona governor’s seat for the first time in more than a decade as voters across the nation appear to have delivered a stunning rejection of election deniers and extremists in midterm contests.
据美国广播公司(ABC)新闻报道，民主党人凯蒂·霍布斯(Katie Hobbs)预计将赢得与共和党人卡莉·雷克(Kari Lake)的竞争，这将是10多年来首次改变亚利桑那州州长的位置。在中期选举中，全国选民似乎令人震惊地拒绝了选举否决者和极端分子。
After her projected victory, Hobbs said in a statement, in part: “I want to thank the voters for entrusting me with this immense responsibility. It is truly an honor of a lifetime, and I will do everything in my power to make you proud. I want to thank my family, our volunteers, and campaign staff. Without all of your hard work, passion, and sacrifice this night would not be possible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
在她预计获胜后，霍布斯在一份声明中说:“我想感谢选民赋予我这个巨大的责任。这真的是我一生的荣誉，我会尽我所能让你们感到骄傲。我要感谢我的家人、我们的志愿者和竞选工作人员。没有你们的辛勤工作，激情和牺牲就不可能有今晚。我从心底感谢你。”
