Woman Running For Arizona State Senate Would Not Vote For A Woman

"The nut doesn't fall far from the tree," and all that. The daughter of Rep. Andy Biggs, one of Donald Trump’s biggest congressional cheerleaders, is running for a seat in the Arizona Senate, but she doesn't think women should hold office, or even be allowed to vote, apparently.

The daughter of Rep. Andy Biggs, one of Donald Trump’s biggest congressional cheerleaders, is running for a seat in the Arizona Senate. And to hear her tell it, you shouldn’t vote for her because she’s a woman.

On June 18, Mylie Biggs filed a statement of interest to run for the Gilbert-based state senate seat that Arizona Senate President Warren Petersen is vacating to run for attorney general. Biggs is running on a slate with current Legislative District 14 representatives Khyl Powell and Laurin Hendrix. Biggs’ father, who is now running for governor, also represented the district for 14 years before winning a seat in Congress.

At 25 years old, Biggs just clears Arizona’s age requirement to run for a legislative office. Despite her youth, though, Biggs has already managed to contradict the essence of her nascent venture into politics.
