Gina Swoboda

Gina Marie Swoboda (born June 27, 1969) is an American politician who served as chairwoman of the Arizona Republican Party from 2024 to 2026. She defeated state Corporation Commissioner Jim O'Connor with 67% of the vote to become chairwoman in January 2024.

During the 1980s and 1990s, Swoboda was a registered Democrat and a supporter of the Democratic Leadership Council, though she came from a Republican family. She became a Republican in 2008.

In October 2025, Swoboda announced her candidacy in the 2026 election for Arizona's 1st congressional district. The seat is open following incumbent Republican David Schweikert's decision to run for governor. Swoboda was endorsed by President Donald Trump on October 20, 2025. In February 2026, Swoboda filed paperwork indicating she may instead run for Arizona Secretary of State, and withdrew to do so later that month.
