John James is trying to buy this election with DeVos money, skirting campaign finance rules to give billionaires more influence over our kids’ futures. The DeVos family wants a governor who will put their interests ahead of Michigan’s kids and public schools. Michigan deserves a governor who works for YOU, not billionaire donors.
NEWS: This money appears to have flowed from 2 members of the DeVos family to a PAC then to the state party and then to ads in support of John James.

NEW: @MichiganDems has filed a campaign finance complaint over this desperate & illegal scheme to bail out @JohnJamesMI's flailing campaign. We're urging MI TV stations to immediately cease providing the @MIGOP with the candidate ad rate.

Yuma voters are holding Andy Biggs accountable for voting in lockstep with Washington’s cost-hiking agenda: “I invite Andy Biggs to sit at a kitchen table in Yuma, look at a single parent’s grocery receipt, and tell them that everything has come back down.” #AZGov kawc.org/news/2026-10-23/yum…

Andy Biggs' closing message: pay no attention to my decades-long record of protecting pedophiles 🥴#AZGov
Arizonans are tired of the campaign smears and slander they see too often on TV. Courtney and Jason know who I am and they know I’ll be a Governor for their kids and yours. We’re going to Restore the American Dream for the next generation in Arizona.

Governor Lamont delivering a masterclass on what strong, results-oriented and accountable executive leadership looks like in tonight's debate on @WFSBnews. No surprise he's incredibly popular in CT and will cruise to victory.

Strong performance so far from Gov. Lamont. Fazio sounds whiney, underprepared & looks like the dog who caught the car. Lamont laying out clearly how he is fighting on affordability & his record of getting results. Pretty clear why he's one of the most popular govs.

"The biggest boost came from the Democratic Governors Association, which has contributed $11.5 million to her bid." DGA is proud to support Keisha Lance Bottoms and to be her largest donor. Let's win! ajc.com/politics/2026/10/kei…

🚨📰 NEW: Gov. Laura Kelly makes the case for Cindy Holscher in the @KCStar. She led Kansas out of the Brownback mess, and she knows Ty Masterson wants to take us right back into it.
Ty Masterson backed the Brownback tax experiment that destroyed our economy and wrecked our schools. We can’t go back, that’s why I’m voting for Cindy Holscher. Every Kansan who remembers what we went through a decade ago should join me. amp.kansascity.com/opinion/a…

Jim Pillen turned a $1.2 billion surplus into a billion-dollar hole, and now he needs help from Washington to close out his campaign. But Nebraskans aren't looking for more politics. They're looking for someone who'll do the job. Here's Lynne's message to every Nebraskan, Republican or Democrat.

My opponent blamed high gas prices on the Keystone pipeline and rising health care costs on Barack Obama — who will she blame next, Thomas Jefferson? Minnesotans know: gas prices, health premiums, and costs are going up because of Donald Trump's war and policies like his health care cuts.

Line is wrapped around the building for @AaronDFordNV’s town hall with @Carlos_E_Espina! Nevadans are excited that as Governor, unlike Lombardo, Ford’s number one priority will be to make things cost less — not support cost costly wars.
