With Doug Ducey reaching his term limit, voters will elect Arizona’s next governor in November. Former Phoenix news anchor Kari Lake is now a Republican vying for that seat.

TUCSON, Ariz. — With Doug Ducey reaching his term limit, voters will elect Arizona’s next governor in November.

Lake wants to officially declare a border “invasion”--a move which several Republicans say, pointing to the U.S. Constitution, gives the state more authority to protect itself from a threat when the federal government fails to do so. “We’re gonna help people get off the streets,” she said. “We’re gonna help them get into treatment. And sometimes it takes something called ‘tough love.’ I know, I’ve had friends and relatives who have struggled with addiction. You’ve gotta use some tough love. They’ve gotta have some skin in the game.”

When asked about how she plans to increase the number of available shelter beds in Arizona, Lake responded, “It’s an advanced program, but we’re gonna work on it. And we’re gonna actually work to make an effect.”Lake wants to offer more technical education—in fields such as construction, plumbing and welding—after 10th grade. She wants to create a statewide system of schools committed to this education, especially in rural areas.

“I’m running on the issues, and the issues are very obvious what they are,” she said. “We have a wide open border. We have crime surging on our streets, we have drugs pouring in, we have an economy that’s faltering, we have a education system that’s brainwashing our kids. This is Joe Biden’s America.

“We elect legislators and they change the law,” she replied. “I don’t write the law, the legislators do… So I will enforce the laws of our state. And if we don’t like the laws, we need the legislature to change them.”While lake would keep a Republican in that seat, she’d put her own stamp on the state, if elected.So we'll start at the southern border. You have an even extensive Border Protection Plan, a big part of that is just more boots on the ground.

You follow, you mentioned following President Trump's lead when it comes to the wall. You’ve aligned yourself with President Trump over the past couple of years. There are independents and even Republicans out there who don't necessarily support President Trump. What would be your message to them, watching this, who may not be a fan of him or his leadership when he was in the White House? But obviously you still want them to have your vote.
