Bob Christie Capitol Media Services PHOENIX — Incoming Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs is kicking off her term with a celebratory ball, a first for a new governor since Fife Symington had one in the 1990s.
People are also reading… That stands in contrast to Hobbs' promise to make her administration “the most ethical and accountable” in history. The amount collected wasn't enough to cover all the costs. So the state treasury also coughed up $50,000, mainly for renting and staffing the audio-visual equipment for the large-screen TVs that ensured even those in the back of the Capitol courtyard could see what was happening.
This year, however, Hobbs' press aide Joe Wolf said no one will have to buy tickets to watch the Thursday ceremonies. Neither aides to Hobbs nor APS will disclose how much they are now donating to the ceremony, with the company saying only that it is joining with other Arizona businesses in supporting the inauguration.

She it got from the cartels and now they paid her to tear down the storage container walls. Prove me wrong Hobbs.
KariLakeWarRoom We all know Hobbs did not win!! We know Kari Lake did so what can be done for the people of Arizona I do believe in Prayer!!
KariLakeWarRoom Liz Cheney ( Trump hater extraordinaire) who swore she stop Lake from winning.
KariLakeWarRoom Fits Hobb’s M.O.- Refusal of transparency will be the way she will do business.

KariLakeWarRoom Criminal ....
KariLakeWarRoom The open society I bet once again Soros is celebrating!

KariLakeWarRoom Tell me is this a good honest start? This is the 'Washington Way'of deceit and lawlessness..This is only the beginning people and remember I warned you. Look at that face?Does that look like someone who is serious?When you don't work for something you can't take the job serious.
Commie Hobbs the 🐓💩
KariLakeWarRoom
Typical. How about the recount. Nothing to Hide, Nothing to Fear
She’s just another cheating, lying, worthless Democrat. Katie slob you suck.
I don't care.
She’s a liar and a cheat. What do you expect?!
Why is Kevin McCarthy & the rest of the GOP “leaders” have yet to condemn Santos4Congress for his CRIMINAL acts and lies? JUST TELL YOU WHAT THE REPUBLICANS ARE ABOUT!!!
God awful from day one
George Soros probably popped out of the cake.
Democrats are excellent at saying one thing and doing another.
KariLakeWarRoom RECALL
GovernorHobbs is an election crook and liar
Hobbs just tells you what you want to hear and does what she damn well pleases.
Katie FRAUDS
ArrestKatieHobbs
MixsonAmber They will continue to steal elections until we have a revolution

CCP paying for it & tax payers
Smell corruption yet?
Have you yet figured out the fallacy in this thinking?
She will be removed
KariLakeWarRoom We aren’t stupid, we know that soros is wallet behind he!
She’s corrupt but no one is willing to pull the weeds
Pig
KariLakeWarRoom Waiting patiently for justice, for now!!!
Soulless
KariLakeWarRoom Corrupt

I mean seriously when is a sheriff or somebody going to go in there and arrest her she rigged the election it's obvious to everybody in America even the world Katie Hobbs your traitor you belong behind bars for treason end of story lock her up I mean where the hell is justice
Because she didn’t win. We DID NOT elect her and we WILL NOT be governed by her. PERIOD.
She’s a fraud just like the election
You continue to “elect” carpetbaggers and scammers this is what you get. One scam after another, climate emergency, identity politics, “gender” equity and affirmation, Covid fascism. The new elites.
Finger puppet / little fish
She doesn’t know who
Did anyone expect anything else? She did not even campaign
Short timer 🤣🤣
KariLakeWarRoom Does she have to? Is she legally obliged to do so? Maybe her tax returns are being audited? Wasn't that Donnie's excuse?
Kari Lake Warns of 'Justice' After Katie Hobbs Laughs During Oath of Office This is not a fair characterization. If you watch the whole video you can see that Gov. Hobbs was feeling emotional & made a little joke to her mother
Arizona deserved better than Hobbs.
KariLakeWarRoom Open the Books
Well, she's not actually the Governor, so there's that..
Kari Lake admits defeat and plans to return to her previous role as the Omnicron variant.
katiehobbs GovernorHobbs HYPOCRISY! BS! LIES!!!!!
It won’t be long before she surrounds herself with armed guards and builds a wall around her house.
KariLakeWarRoom This is why Arizona is again a joke around the country
Scummy crook
USAborn3
Hold your emotions. Just read the story, not the headline. You'll feel better
KariLakeWarRoom That says something about her for sure.
Private ceremony funded by private donors. If it's public ceremony then private donors should be disclosed. Prop 211 just passed...
Conartist Hobbs
ok. Was there a point to this?
While grieving a loss is an inevitable part of life, there are ways to help cope with the pain, come to terms with your grief, face your ludicrous denial and eventually, find a way to pick up the pieces and move on with your life. loser
KariLakeWarRoom Betcha lunch w Kari Lake it's Soros? first official FOIA request anyone?
Why should she. She’s untouchable, obviously. 🤷🏼♂️
She knew it and she didn't win the election by free and fair election. Conscience is not clear
Get use to it, she will use this position to get get her and her inner circle filthy rich! katiehobbs
KariLakeWarRoom Paid for lefty
KariLakeWarRoom Yeah, she was so transparent she refused to debate.
KariLakeWarRoom Real transparent 🤡
KariLakeWarRoom This massive donor list on her website? Including state troopers and Banner Health. Yeah, she has them all listed. Stop the fake news from Lyin Lake.
jellen805 Elias election fixers chief corporate sponsor
KariLakeWarRoom You get what you vote for AZ
KariLakeWarRoom Unreal we just keep letting these fraudulent elections go to the wayside. Good for Kari keep fighting sad for our country that Biden is it illegal president.
KariLakeWarRoom Another puppet was installed.
KariLakeWarRoom What do you expect from a democrat
KariLakeWarRoom Corrupt!
KariLakeWarRoom Just like Biden.
KariLakeWarRoom
What do you expect from a liar, cheater, criminal and cartel hoe?
Placed not elected
KariLakeWarRoom Deep state
Hobbs is a fraud. Probably gets orders from DC.
KariLakeWarRoom Just the start. Just wait.
KariLakeWarRoom Hobbs didn't recuse herself from overseeing the AZ Gubernatorial election. SHE was responsible for adjudicating the election that she was running in. She had county results, challenges, modifications... funneled to her directly where she cherrypicked what was legit.
She is disgusting. Shame on you Arizona folks
KariLakeWarRoom You are all CROOKED, Arizona is the new Chicago
The next governor select of AZ.

KariLakeWarRoom Hobbs is a fraud. Incompetent and Inept. Probably gets ordered from DC.
KariLakeWarRoom Umm....from your own article: 'But the new administration, while listing official 'sponsors' for the event....' So she actually IS doing exactly the opposite of what you claimed?
What else is she hiding?
She is very shy and quiet. That’s how she ran her campaign that’s how she’ll run the state. It’s not really a surprise.
i wouldnt tell a gop the time of day. you folks are religious terrorists, a societal cancer
I am willing to bet, quite a bit. Actually, that one of her major donors is the Aryan nation because they have similar views on white supremacy. The only difference is the Aryan nation hasn’t had slave auctions where Katie Hobbs has.
I wouldn’t go to her party anyway.
Stop whining
I would be willing to bet that once she’s Governor in office, you will never ask a serious question again, Star. But right now, you’ll poke a little hoping to dupe more readers into reading your red paper. Let’s see if I am right…
Yeah, well she’s a fraud so?
This doesn't say HOW she is refusing. Is she refusing the Tucson Star or...? Who's asking and what was the response? Come on, you can do ACTUAL reporting right rather than casting doubt on the Governor who isn't even sworn in yet.
I contributed to Katie Hobbs. She better be transparent about where the money comes from if she wants support in the future. Transparency is vital for democracy even if it's someone I generally agree with. Come clean Katie!
FINALLY! You're reporting the truth and asking real questions.
She’s a WEFpuppet installed by GeorgeSoros she was not elected she was selected.
Ha! About as transparent as puke splattered on a wall, running down while the dog licks it up. commiekatie
Good for you. Would love to quit calling your company the Az. Daily Red Star. Real journalism, hope the boss isn't mad at you when he gets back from his New Years Eve celebration with the Soros crowd.
I missed the story when Doug Ducey sold our water to Saudi Arabia when no one was watching
Was this a story under Ducey?
Typical politician
you guys did ever you could to defeat her and you now think shat is going to be easy ?
So much for transparency.
Ridiculous nothing-burger. It isn’t taxpayer money or official state business. The star is trash. From your article, completely buried: “This is a private event not being paid for with public funds,”' said Hobbs' press aide Murphy Hebert when asked for specifics.
