Mylie Biggs, 25, the daughter of US Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), who previously said she does not believe women should hold public office announced she is running for office.
After the announcement, a clip resurfaced of Mylie telling an Arizona-based podcast called The Matty McCurdy Program, that she wouldn’t vote for a woman because she doesn’t believe women should be in office.
“Honestly, I don’t know if I would vote for any female. I don’t know if females should be in office,” Biggs said, according to the Phoenix New Times.
“There are a lot of really good women in office, I’m not trying to hate on anyone – like, some really good congresswomen,” Biggs added. “Yeah, I don’t think women should hold office in general. That’s my position. That’s my stance. I think women should run the home.”
Biggs also expressed concerns with how “modern feminism” has changed society “starting with women’s right to vote.”
“I hate a 9-to-5 schedule,” she said. “I get home and I don’t want to do anything else. Like, women aren’t built for this. I just want to be a wife. I just want to be a mom.”
After the November 2024 presidential election, Biggs returned to the podcast and called for the 19th Amendment to be repealed because women backed Democrats.
“Have you seen ones where it’s like, if women were the only ones to vote, what it would look like and it’s literally like 80% blue,” Biggs said. “It’s like, ‘Whoa. Repeal the 19th Amendment.’”
Mylie is running to represent Arizona’s 14th legislative district in the state senate.
Her father, who has announced earlier this year that he is running for Arizona governor in 2026, represented the district for 14 years before he was elected to the United States Congress.
The Phoenix New Times reported that since her announcement in late June, Biggs has not submitted a campaign finance report, and has not raised any money.
