Turning Point Tries to Take Over Arizona’s Republican Party

December 22, 2025 · 1:51 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Politico: “Turning Point USA wants to be Arizona’s political kingmaker. And two upcoming primary elections could show just how far the organization has reshaped the state GOP in its own image.”

“Turning Point USA is campaigning against two Republican candidates for governor, Karrin Taylor Robson and Rep. David Schweikert, in favor of Rep. Andy Biggs. And it’s actively trying to undermine Gina Swoboda — the Arizona GOP chair running to replace Schweikert in the state’s 1st District — even though Trump endorsed her.”
