Quotes
- “Ha! I have no aspiration to be president of the United States.”
- “It's over speaking to Mic from the floor of the Republican National Convention. As we leave here with the momentum at our backs, we all have to go out there and put our game face on.”
- “We reject baseless conspiracy theories and disinformation that seek to delegitimize our democratic institutions.”
- “False claims of widespread voter fraud not only erode public trust in elections but also undermine the credibility of our political system writ large. Instead, we must rely on facts and evidence to inform our discussions about election integrity and hold accountable those who seek to sow discord and division for their own political gain.”
- “Complaining about the rules every time we come up short, is not a recipe for advancing a conservative agenda.”
- “There does come a time to pass the torch of leadership, After completing this year in office, I will do just that.”

Encyclopedic overview
Janice Kay Brewer (née Drinkwine; born September 26, 1944) is an American politician who served as the 22nd governor of Arizona from 2009 to 2015, as a member of the Republican Party. Prior to this, Brewer was a member of the Arizona House of Representatives, Arizona Senate, and Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, and served as Secretary of State of Arizona from 2003 to 2009.
Born in California, Brewer graduated from Glendale Community College and moved to Arizona. She ran for a seat in the state house to influence education policy while her children were in school. In the Arizona Senate she became majority whip in 1993, and was known for her proposals to put content warnings on profane albums and to create a position of lieutenant governor so the secretary of state would not be next in line to the governorship. Brewer became chair of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors in 1997, after campaigning on opposition to a tax it levied.
