$500,000 Raised Since Liz Cheney’s ‘Anti Endorsement’: Arizona GOP Frontrunner
Arizona Republican gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake claimed on Monday that her campaign raised over $500,000 since outgoing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) recently attempted to derail her campaign in an “anti-endorsement” effort.
Cheney has targeted Lake and Republican candidate for Arizona’s secretary of state Rep. Mark Finchem in a 30-second ad where she’s urging voters to reject the two candidates because “they’ll only honor the results of an election if they agree with it.”
While speaking on Fox News’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight” on Monday, Lake said the outgoing GOP congresswoman has now officially become her “biggest fundraiser” to date.
