Katie Hobbs is feeling the heat.
The latest polls from Arizona show Kari Lake opening up a massive 11 point lead.
So what does Katie Hobbs do?
She appears to be playing dirty politics.
In case you haven’t heard, Katie Hobbs’ campaign headquarters was broken into.
It appeared to be the work of radicals.
But Hobbs appeared to blame the entire incident on Kari Lake, suggesting that Lake organized a Watergate-style break-in to her campaign headquarters.
You can almost smell the desperation!
The lamestream media attempted to use this against Kari Lake.
But she resisted.
Watch below:
The Media just couldn’t help but ask about ridiculous allegations made by @katiehobbs yesterday

AFTER accusing my team of coordinating a Watergate style break-in of her office, Katie Hobbs has now flip-flopped and DOES NOT want to talk about the crime
This comes AFTER arrest was made and NO political motivation confirmed. pic.twitter.com/lb7YAwl3eN

There is no evidence at all that Kari Lake is connected to the break-in.
So why did Hobbs make the accusation?
And why did the media keep repeating it?
Instead, if they were fair and truthful, they would have asked Hobbs to provide evidence.
The New York Times confirms that multiple items were stolen:
As a combative Arizona governor’s race ticked down toward Election Day, the Phoenix police said Wednesday that they were investigating a burglary at the campaign headquarters of the Democratic candidate, Katie Hobbs.
Phoenix police officers responded to a burglary call on Tuesday afternoon, said Sgt. Phil Krynsky, a spokesman for the department. Items were taken from the property, he said, but he declined to specify what they were, citing an active investigation.
Detectives were checking security footage, Sergeant Krynsky said. On Thursday, the police announced that they had made an arrest in the case, and promised that more details would be released later in the day.
Ms. Hobbs, Arizona’s secretary of state, and the Republican candidate, Kari Lake, a conservative former TV news anchor, are in the final weeks of a tight contest for Arizona governor.
In a statement, the Hobbs campaign referred to the intimidation it said its workers have faced and “dangerous disinformation” it says the Lake campaign has spread.
“Secretary Hobbs and her staff have faced hundreds of death threats and threats of violence over the course of this campaign,” said Nicole DeMont, Ms. Hobbs’s campaign manager. “Throughout this race, we have been clear that the safety of our staff and of the secretary is our number one priority.”
If President Trump made the same accusations as Hobbs made against a Democrat, do you think the media would repeat it?
Of course not!
They’d call Trump a liar!
They’d ask him for proof.
But the media is clearly in the tank for Katie Hobbs, so they’re spreading her lies.
Fortunately, Kari Lake is fighting back.

Katie Hobbs is so far behind Kari Lake in the polls that her team, in collusion with the LW MSM, resort to a smear campaign against Kari's team!!

Soon, we’ll know the trooth.
An arrest has been made in this case.
If it turns out that the burglary was a random act of violence totally unrelated to Kari Lake, will Katie Hobbs reply for the accusation?
CNN confirms the arrest:
An arrest has been made in connection to a burglary of Democratic Arizona gubernatorial candidate Katie Hobbs’ campaign headquarters, Phoenix Police announced on Twitter Thursday.
Phoenix Police said an arrest was made in regard to a burglary at the address of the headquarters, and the Hobbs campaign confirmed to CNN that the arrest referred to the incident, which was reported on Tuesday afternoon.
Authorities did not immediately provide any additional information, including the suspect’s identity or a potential motive, and said additional details would be released later on Thursday.
Police earlier said in a statement that “items were taken from the property sometime during the night.”
A source within the Hobbs campaign told CNN that CCTV video shows the man they say broke into the campaign headquarters. The Hobbs campaign hasn’t been able to get a full inventory of what was taken, the source added.
Nicole DeMont, who manages Hobbs’ gubernatorial campaign, told CNN in a statement that “Secretary Hobbs and her staff have faced hundreds of death threats and threats of violence over the course of this campaign. Throughout this race, we have been clear that the safety of our staff and of the Secretary is our number one priority.”
“Let’s be clear: for nearly two years (Arizona Republican gubernatorial nominee) Kari Lake and her allies have been spreading dangerous misinformation and inciting threats against anyone they see fit,” DeMont continued. “The threats against Arizonans attempting to exercise their constitutional rights and their attacks on elected officials are the direct result of a concerted campaign of lies and intimidation.”
DeMont said that intimidation “won’t work,” and expressed thanks to the Phoenix Police Department for keeping Hobbs and her team safe.
So what do you think?
Was this burglary organized by Kari Lake?
Or is this a smear campaign against Lake to try to take her down because of her massive 11 point lead?
