The 1998 Arizona gubernatorial election took place on November 3, 1998, for the post of
Mayor of Phoenix, Paul Johnson. Hull became the first woman to win a gubernatorial election in Arizona, although not the first woman to serve as governor of Arizona, (a distinction held by Democrat Rose Mofford, who ascended to the position in 1988 upon Republican Evan Mecham's impeachment
and removal from office, and who served until 1990, declining to run for a full term).
