Of course, the congressman, Andy Biggs, the Republican nominee for governor, was here, as well as the RNC chair, Floyd Mayweather, made an appearance. And it is part of this final push that you were talking about from the GOP ahead of the midterms. Yesterday, President Trump was in Alaska campaigning for the senator seeking re-election, Dan Sullivan. This is as the Republican Party is seeing themselves in tighter races across the country. And it's something that the president echoed when he spoke today here in Arizona. We're going to elect a strong Republican majority in the House and Senate. And I think we have a really good chance. And to be honest with you, you know, I'm not on the ballot. And they say if I'm on the ballot, we get 49 percent more votes. So I'm here to say, please pretend I'm on the ballot. Right now, Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance are trying to rally Republican voters in both competitive races and some that seem to be slipping away. The most recent Fox News power rankings predicting big gains for House Democrats this year and Senate seats that used to be solidly Republican are becoming toss-ups like races in Alaska and Texas. We have to restore the American dream to Arizona because it's being taken away by a governor, Governor Katie Hobbs.
