> Hobbs vetoed more than 540 bills from the Republican-led Legislature in her first term, on taxes, immigration and voting. With a Democratic Legislature, she’s pledged to focus on water, affordability, and fraud and abuse in the state’s school voucher program.
> Arizona is one of at least six states where Democrats now hold full control, along with Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Nevada and Wisconsin.
