Robson In SaddleBrooke GOP Closed Meeting
SBINSIDER REPORTING: November 10th, 2025
Karen Taylor Robson, Republican candidate for Governor will speak to the Republican Club this Tuesday the 11th. The event is scheduled to begin at 3:30 PM at Desert View Theater.
Robson is a Republican activist who was defeated by Kari Lake for the Governor’s race in the 2022 primary. Lake then lost to Katie Hobbs. She has been appointed to the Arizona Board of Regents and is a lawyer who founded a real estate development company.
Her name may be familiar to SaddleBrooker’s in that the development we inhabit was built by her husband, Ed Robson, way back in the 1980’s (the Disco Era) as we know it.
Karen Robson is much younger that her husband, who has stepped away from running his namesake company.
Because of HOA2 rules, only members of the Republican Club, or their guests, are allowed into the meeting.
Robson’s campaign sent the following as her official biography:
Karrin Taylor Robson is a lifelong conservative, business executive, and mother running for Governor with President Trump’s endorsement.
Just like President Trump, she is not a career politician; she is a businesswoman who built one of Arizona’s top land-use and economic development firms from scratch. For three decades, Karrin has navigated land, water, and infrastructure issues while defending private property rights, streamlining permits, and supporting job growth across Arizona.
In addition to her business career, she has served on numerous education and military boards, including more than 20 years as a trusted advisor to the U.S. Air Force Chief of Staff. For her service, she received the Distinguished Service Award, the highest civilian honor given by the Secretary of the Air Force.
A proud wife, mother of four, and grandmother, Karrin is running for Governor to keep our communities safe, root out waste, fraud, and abuse, and Make Arizona Strong Again.
Robson will be going head to head with Andy Biggs who is leaving Congress to make this run. Biggs represents the freedom caucus wing of the party, while Robson is positioned as the leader of the moderate Doug Ducey contingent. (Ducey being the former Governor.)
No matter who wins the primary, it is always difficult to defeat an incumbent (Hobbs) and with 2026 being a non-Presidential year, the party in power in Washington usually takes a drubbing. In 2018, the GOP Congress lost 43 seats putting Democrat Nancy Pelosi back into the Speakers” chair. In 2010, with Obama as President, the House Democrats lost an astounding 63 seats, a modern day record.
