Candidate Info
I am running for AZ Senate LD 1 with the Clean Slate for Democracy to take corruption out of politics. I want to strengthen traditional public schools and voter rights, the bedrock institutions of our democratic republic. The three-decade defunding of Arizona’s public schools, which has placed us last in the US, must be reversed to achieve the following: • A comprehensive solution for P-20 education, including increasing access and affordability of PreK and higher education. • More resources going to schools to serve the students most in need (poverty/opportunity weight). • Funding that solves our next fiscal challenges when federal COVID relief funds dry up in 2024 or the Prop 123 triggers activate. • A long-term fix for the Aggregate Expenditure Limit. • A significant investment in special education. • Funding for full day kindergarten • Raising teacher pay to a competitive level. Efforts to place election outcomes in the hands of partisan groups must be stopped. Let’s empower voters so voting is easy and secure. We need to retain early voting. To create an economy that works for all of us, Arizona needs a fair tax structure to prevent structural deficits and balance the tax burden equitably. CleanSlateAZLD1.com

Kaiser, Steve (REP)
Candidate Info
What an amazing state we live in! Breathtaking beauty, affordability and economic growth are all reasons why I choose to live in Arizona with my wife and three boys. I’m a pro-life pro-freedom conservative that will stand up for limited government, individual liberties and pro-growth policies. I love this state and I know this district well. I grew up here! I attended public schools in PVUSD from Kindergarten to Senior year, GO HUSKIES! We must demand high quality, high performing schools and ensure every parent can choose the best school for their child. It's important to always place parents and students at the front of all we do in education. In addition to education I also value service. I served eight years as an Army Officer, leading a team of Soldiers in Afghanistan as a Captain in 2008. My professional experience consists of management in retail, healthcare, non-profit and government sectors. All of those experiences culminated in me running my own business, a local junk hauling and recycling company. Above all I want to protect and grow this great state. If re-elected I will keep a mentality of servant leadership at the heart of everything I do.

Jeanne Casteen is a parent, educator, and former school board president. As a middle school and high school teacher, Jeanne has seen firsthand how policies at the state level have created a two-tier education system that hurt entire communities. She knew she could do more for her students from the board room, and in 2012 joined her local school board. She served for eight years, and was president for four years. In 2020, Jeanne was the democratic nominee for Maricopa County School Superintendent, and came within .6% of winning. She now heads a nonprofit advocacy organization that focuses on discriminatory legislation coming from the Arizona legislature. She has two adult children who were born and raised in Arizona, and Jeanne is running for state senate so that they and their children will have access to an excellent public education, and have access to fair wages and affordable housing.

Core Campaign Goals 1. Schools. I would like to increase funding for schools. 51.7% of voters cast their ballots in favor of Proposition 208. However- it was determined that this would result in schools receiving "too much money." The measure was struck down- despite having the support of the people. 2. Water. I will work to determine the best solutions for the current water crisis, which will only worsen as the population in Arizona grows. 3. Budget. I will work to ensure that the senate stops misusing funds for political grandstanding and tax giveaways for the rich. 4. Healthcare Workers. Healthcare workers are currently subject to an alarming rise in verbal aggression and physical violence. I support increased penalties for those who assault healthcare workers.

I am privileged to be in the United States of America! I have benefitted greatly from our liberties, freedoms and the spirit of the American people. Our first home was a small, on a gravel road, with no indoor bathroom and only cold water to the kitchen sink. We were poor, but through guidance of parents, family and follow citizens—coupled with personal hard-work, opportunities for education, and the grace of God, I was able to make a better life. I am concerned that the opportunities that I had are becoming out of reach for many today--as families find it harder to earn enough money to pay bills and build for their future. The American people are great, but sometime our leaders are not so wise. An example, President Joe Biden's policies lead to doubling the cost of gas/diesel, which has raised the cost of everything. Americans deserve better. Because of the blessing afforded to me, I am running. IF you want a choice, on August 2nd, Write-In my name for the State Senate – or else the Democrats primary voters will determine your candidate in the November election.

For the past eleven years I have represented LD 24 in the Arizona Legislature, eight years in the House and currently in my fourth year in the Senate.

Throughout my career as a lawmaker, I have championed our public schools and universities, advocated on behalf of our most vulnerable communities, and worked to find common ground with my colleagues and pragmatic solutions to the challenges confronting our state. Accessible and affordable public education that prepares Arizona's young people for 21st Century careers, improving the lives of children and families, working in support of housing for the homeless and low-income families, and defending the civil rights of all of Arizona's citizens will continue to be my priorities, should I be re-elected to represent LD 5 in the Arizona State Senate. A native Arizonan and the proud product of our public school system, from kindergarten to graduate school, I believe in the potential of our young people and Arizona, which is why I will continue working for the people of our great state as your LD 5 State Senator.

Kyle was born and raised in Gilbert, AZ. Kyle has been organizing since 2016, fighting for a government that works to make the lives of Arizonans better. In 2018, as the organizer in Flagstaff, Kyle registered over 2,500 young people and contributed to an increase in voter turnout in the 2018 election of 300% on NAU's campus. After graduating, Kyle took a job with a Congressional campaign where he met with and listened to the concerns of thousands of Arizona voters. Kyle's passion is in working with young people and increasing their political power. Arizona has seen drastic cuts to public education funding, and Kyle has seen the suffering of students, their families, faculty, and staff as a result. Kyle wants to see our public schools funded by 100% public funds. Kyle wants to see a thriving Arizona with jobs that have benefits (paid sick leave, parental leave, retirement savings, etc.). Most importantly, Kyle wants to see a State Legislature that works for ALL Arizonians, not just wealthy donors.

I will do my best to return Arizona to it's people, by eliminating all unnecessary regulations and restrictions that impede the rights and abilities for people to prosper for themselves. I believe the Government has taken so much from the people that they have trouble simply surviving, instead of improving. In short… FULL STATE SOVEREIGNTY. I believe in Personal Property rights and our sovereignty and will defend them to the utmost. Our School system is completely out of control. Massive spending and moving further and further away. Our kids need to learn necessary life skills rather than simply learning how to pass tests. Immigration. It's a misconception that Libertarians want unsecured borders. My thought on this is that we appreciate legal immigration. It is what built our great Country. The problem is the crimes committed when illegal immigration is permitted, Fraud, Smuggling, Etc... I understand this is a small percentage of illegal immigrants, but it is also true that there is a small percentage of USA citizens that are criminals, but we still enforce the law. This needs to apply to everyone. Finally, I just want to say, if you want your freedoms back and your rights respected, Vote Libertarian.

For ten years as your public servant elected to the Arizona Legislature, I have fought to restore integrity and accountability in government. Having grown up in poverty with a single mother, I know that individual success is built on a shared investment in public education, infrastructure, health, economic stability, housing, and safety. Now as a new father, I know firsthand how important it is that we end the political and economic inequalities that punish many Arizonans by denying opportunities to better the future of their children. I received my associate's from Phoenix College, bachelor's from ASU, and am pursuing a Master's in Public Administration. Previously, I managed AZ Community Voice Mail, a nonprofit where I connected thousands living in poverty, transition, and homelessness to jobs, housing, information, and hope. I also served on the Tempe Community Council. I recently was a substitute teacher for Tempe & Mesa high schools and co-instructor at Phoenix College. The number one barrier to progress for all at the Capitol is the influence of big money in elections. Money shouldn’t determine how legislators vote. I am running for re-election as a part of your publicly-funded Clean Elections Team with support from voters like you.

I’m a life science executive and engineer, a business owner and entrepreneur, a native Arizonan and first-generation college graduate, and a new dad. I’m transitioning to public service because I’m driven by the desire to leave a better Arizona for my children’s children. My top priorities include securing a sustainable water supply, preserving great options for education, supporting business and entrepreneurship, and protecting individual liberty. I believe it is possible to uphold strong conservative values while still treating those who disagree with us as neighbors, not enemies. It will take a compassionate and unifying voice to win our district and represent it well, and I’m running to be that voice.

We need better funding for education, more affordable housing options, high quality jobs, and sustainable water solutions. As your current House Representative and a computer systems analyst, I am a problem-solver with a successful track record. In 2021, I led a statewide team to develop and pass bipartisan solutions for Arizona’s Unemployment Insurance system. The results are better benefits for workers and lower tax rates for employers. As a former school board member, I am known for listening to parents, teachers, and students, and I speak up at the Capitol for the support our schools need in order to offer an excellent education and keep qualified educators. As a small business owner, I know first-hand that public policies must provide a supportive environment for your business to compete and grow. I push for fiscal responsibility and government integrity: our tax dollars belong in our pockets and in the programs that help our community, not in the pockets of cronies and special interests. Practical solutions are possible without raising taxes, if we work together. In the AZ Senate, I will continue listening, collaborating and leading to build on Arizona’s strengths.

As your legislator I’ve written laws that helped create jobs, supported our small businesses by cutting bureaucratic red tape, protected health coverage for Arizonans with preexisting conditions, directed more money into our kids’ classrooms, created the Teacher Academy at our universities, helped employees get wages rightfully owed, protected survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse, confronted the opioid epidemic, shielded seniors from financial exploitation, promoted veteran-friendly college campuses, and increased savings for the state’s rainy-day fund (proving crucial during this pandemic). For these accomplishments I’ve won Guardian of Small Business, Champion of the Taxpayer, Friend of the Family, Open Government Leader awards and more. I even had the honor of being elected Arizona Speaker of the House, where I crafted fiscally responsible budgets and personally sponsored the largest education investment in state history, dramatically boosting teacher pay 20%. Today's historic health and economic challenges require someone with the right experience and a track record of success to navigate. That’s why I need your vote. Let me continue using my diverse background, which includes husband (to a registered nurse), father, professor and small business owner, with master's degrees in business and public administration, to keep delivering results for you.

I’m a mother of 3 and a g-mother of 2, having lived in AZ 29 out of the last 34 years. I have boots-on-the-ground experience in the 2 most pressing arenas: education and elections. Public schools need adequate funding and charter schools should have the same transparency accountability as public schools. Most of my education career was spent in middle schools as a teacher, assistant principal, and principal. After retiring , I became engaged in the foundations of democracy. I became a volunteer Deputy Registrar with the Maricopa County Elections and have worked every election since 2017. I’m active with Save Our Schools and the League of Women Voters. My favorite activity is attending Naturalization ceremonies and seeing people from all around the world achieve their dream of becoming American citizens. I believe Arizonans deserve privacy in their healthcare decisions, without government interference. Like most Arizonans, I'm also interested in seeking viable solutions to sustainable clean water availability.

As the 2021 National Legislator of the Year, a 100% rated constitutional conservative legislator, a champion of the family and taxpayers, an A+ defender of the Second Amendment, and fierce advocate for the freedom, opportunity, and prosperity that exists in Arizona, you can have confidence that I'll always fight for you. At the Capitol I have been hard at work to secure our elections, authoring legislation to ban the private funding of elections, prohibit the mass mailing of ballots to voters who didn’t request it, and require proof of citizenship to vote. I’ve fought to protect children by prohibiting sexually explicit material from being used in our schools. I’ve stood up against the tyranny of COVID by protecting small businesses from rogue government agencies, and this year, banning any Arizona government from requiring a COVID vaccine. I’m proud to be running as a team with two incredible conservative Republicans, Jacqueline Parker and Neal Carter. I ask that you support all three of us. You get ONE vote for Senate and TWO votes for House. If you want a conservative team that works together to get great things done, please vote for HOFFMAN, PARKER, and CARTER for Legislature!

Mike Nickerson Democratic Candidate for Arizona State Senate Legislative District 17 I’m running for State Senate to defend the most basic right of all Arizonans--the right to vote and to have that vote counted honestly. Our present senate has wasted time and money on ‘audits’ and passing highly partisan bills imported from other states...bills that are intended to divide us and divert our attention from issues that matter. I believe in meeting our challenges head-on. In addition to fair voting rights, I will fight for excellent public schools; quality health care for all Arizonans; and for women and their doctors to decide on appropriate medical procedures, not legislators. I will fight to protect our children by pushing for the passage of sensible gun safety laws. I won’t allow special interest groups to keep us stuck in the past when it comes to negotiating a workable water plan that protects Arizona’s future, and takes advantage of the unique economic benefits to generate solar power. I am running as a Clean Candidate so no one has given me more than $180 to fund my campaign. My only obligation is to the people of Arizona.

Why am I running for office? After working 33 years for the Department of Defense, I knew in my retirement that I could not stand by and watch my great state and country continue down the path it was heading. Gas prices continue to rise; inflation is higher than it’s been in years; our freedoms and liberties are being challenged; people are not respecting police, first responders, or our military; our border is not being enforced; and common respect and courtesy is fading. Families are being torn about by political division that is fueled by the mainstream media. I helped to raise my three kids in Arizona, and all graduated from Arizona schools. I am a certified substitute teacher in Arizona and have worked in Amphi and Marana schools. It’s time Arizona leads the nation in restoring respect, responsibility, and common decency back into Arizona and our lives. I’m running to make a positive difference!

I've lived in District 22 for more than a decade. I'm a true Progressive candidate, our district is under siege by the right wing and dark money, we are one of the remaining districts that can fight off the right's crazy policies. The Republicans want to sell our water to Saudi Arabia and sell our future to the highest bidder. We have an education and water crisis and it seems that's just fine with Republicans and Kari Lake. They want to take away your rights, stomp on your civil liberties, tell you what to do with your body all the while preaching for "small government". They believe that private business running our government is the solution so they can line their pockets and leave us to fight for scraps. Join Arizona's progressive movement to stop supporting special interests and start supporting our people's interests. We don't need more out of state ice cream parlors and news readers in our government, we need real people that care about others. The state legislature is majority right wing, please if you don't write me in, write in that will fight for District 22's values.

I moved out West in 2012 from Missouri, and I settled here in Phoenix in a small apartment without any family and very few known friends. I worked at a popular business in Scottsdale and met hundreds of people that came from all over the world to spend time here. Afterwards I worked at the Scottsdale Unified School District and met many promising young minds. I then took a job working for the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, where I spent 5 years seeing a very different side of our state. I now happily work in the private sector where I can actually be productive, and have been for the last 4 years. I will continue to work in the private sector even after I am elected. A State Senator should represent all aspects of our society and its needs. I am not bored, retired, or seeking titles. I am trying to build a family, I have a full time job, and I try and live within my means. It is my duty, as a citizen, to take this job even if no one else seems to want it.

Blessed with a unique district that is home to a variety of cultures and natural resources. Arizona’s Desert Southwest Yields the highest quality agriculture, bottled dairy, hunting, military installations and some of the friendliest people. Sadly, our rural district is suffering from a lack of funding for water, education, health care and infrastructure from border walls to highways & residential widening streets projects. When we demand money for our rural communities needs, our current long term legislators (D) Vote NO. Infrastructure is critical for our rural communities safety ,thats why I'm going to the State Capitol to prioritize the Urgency that has been neglected and a complete failure under our current long term elected legislators. The quality of life we enjoy shouldn't be a pawn in a partisan political game. While businesses & families are still recovering from the damage done to our economy by the pandemic.The tax burden placed on business owners must be lightened- substantially. Property taxes must come down. Our communities can't survive thru this inflation in food supplies , rising housing prices and fuel cost ! Im going to the State Capital to finish our recovery & lighten the burdens created by the current administration (D)

I’m a daughter that grew up quickly and helped my parents while they worked multiple jobs to provide us a home. A daughter that lost my dad to COVID when he was forced to go back to work during the pandemic. I’m a sister that raised my little brother. A sister that lost that little brother, my best friend, when police killed him in 2019. I’m a tia that wants to see my nephews and nieces achieve more than they dream possible. I never wanted to run for office. But my family, like many of yours, has paid the cost of the choices of politicians who put money and ego before people. Because of their choices, AZ ranks 48th in education, 8th in incarceration, quality jobs aren’t in our neighborhoods, housing is unaffordable, and our communities are denied important resources. We need to be represented by people that understand the impact of their choices. We deserve better and I'm committed to fighting for all of us. Let’s build the life we deserve!!

It has been my honor to serve as your State Senator. While everyone campaigns as a conservative, I can offer my actual conservative record, which is pro-taxpayer, pro-family, pro-life, and pro-Constitution. My focus continues to be limiting the size of our government while ensuring that what it must do, it does as well as possible. My family owns and operates a 4th generation dairy farm in Buckeye and our Arizona roots are deep in the soil. I’m grateful for the support of so many in our district, both in Maricopa and Yuma County, and I’m hard at work on the various concerns we have, from water to transportation to classroom funding to school safety to lower taxes to border security to protecting our 2nd Amendment rights, I’m going to keep working on all of it. God has truly blessed our country and our state but it is our responsibility to protect them both. Arizona is a national leader in job growth, school choice, educational improvement, and regulatory freedom. I ask for your vote and I promise to continue my work as a reliable conservative.

President Donald Trump endorsed me because he knows how important it is to elect qualified candidates to our Republican Party and to the State of Arizona. President Trump referred to me as “…an incredible fighter for Election Integrity” and applauded my work fighting for Economic growth, support of the Second Amendment, Jobs, Secure Borders, and Public Education. As a State Representative, I stood up to the special interests and stopped many bad bills. As a result, I have now a primary challenger that opposes President Trump’s policies and my conservative record, so I need your vote to ensure that we use common sense to secure our borders against the ongoing migrant invasion and push back against attempts by the Joe Biden’s administration to drag us into socialism. My opponent will claim to be a conservative, but my actual six-year voting record is proof I am a true conservative. I’ve been awarded the Liberty Award, Friend of the Family Award, and Hero of the Taxpayer Award. My wife and I love the West Valley and the state of Arizona. If you want a true conservative fighting on your behalf, I humbly ask for your vote. Thank!

I will continue to keep my focus on a balanced budget, a strong state economy, jobs, improving our schools, limiting the size and scope of government, protecting the taxpayers, and defending our Constitution. There is a non-stop battle between those on the left who want to grow our government, raise our taxes, and chip away at our freedoms – and those of us on the right who want to increase our freedoms by letting you keep more of what you earn and by keeping government out of your lives as much as possible. I will always be on the side of freedom. I was and will always be a US Marine, and I am also involved in doing what I can to help our veterans and to make Arizona a veteran-friendly state.

Having lived in this District since 1971, I have a deep respect for our rich history and am dedicated to protecting and strengthening Arizona. After working as a nurse in this community for while teaching nursing at Yavapai College, I am accustomed to making a difference in the lives of others. I come from a long line of public servants in my family and am called to serve the community in which I was raised. I appreciate your support to keep Arizona great.

As a life-long conservative Republican my priorities are protecting and defending the Constitution, promoting a strong border and election integrity, reducing the tax burden and government overregulation, maintaining fiscal responsibility and economic opportunity, upholding the right to bear arms, defending life, supporting our troops and families, and the protection of state rights. I am highly engaged with our communities and volunteer for several political and civic organizations including the Yavapai County Republican Party, the State and National Federation of Republican Women, the Arizona State Rifle and Pistol Association, the Well-Armed Woman, and the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue. Having lived in this District since 1971, I have a deep respect for our rich history and am dedicated to protecting and strengthening Arizona. After working as a nurse in this community for while teaching nursing at Yavapai College, I am accustomed to making a difference in the lives of others. I come from a long line of public servants in my family and am called to serve the community in which I was raised. I appreciate your support to keep Arizona great.

Candidate Info
I am Cathy Ransom, an Arizona mom who knows our economy has not been working as hard for moms as moms work for our economy. As the business manager of a small business in the Verde Valley, I have witnessed how decades of one-party domination in the state legislature have failed rural Arizona. Water, Education, and Healthcare have all been neglected. That needs to change. Our economy is not working for essential workers, teachers, frontline workers and small business owners. Teachers and Nurses are leaving the state because they can’t afford to live here. I want the legislature to level the playing field and ensure we adequately invest in an equitable future for all of us. The Arizona legislature can help prepare the next generation for 21st century jobs by investing in our human infrastructure. Companies considering relocating to Arizona want an educated workforce and a solid healthcare system. It’s time for a new vision for Arizona’s future at the state capitol. As part of the Clean Slate for Democracy I will hold education, the environment and an economy that works for all of us as top priorities. Learn more at CleanSlateAZLD1.com

I am a husband, father, grandfather, and a solar energy entrepreneur. As the board chairman of Cybertran International I am focused on developing a zero carbon footprint mass transit system powered by the sun. Environmental crises, made worse by climate change, are part of a larger pattern that threatens our way of life. Arizona can play an important role in providing a solution to the challenges of climate change. To do this we need better legislative priorities and lawmakers who nurture innovation and support Arizona’s transition to clean energy. Developing sustainable clean energy technologies here in Arizona helps us attract new businesses. We can and should be leading the world in solar energy innovation. To attract innovators for high growth businesses, Arizona needs a modern, high-caliber public education system anchoring intelligent, motivated, creative individuals and their families. To seize this opportunity we need to properly fund public education. This is why funding education and addressing climate change will be my top legislative priorities and why I am running as a clean election candidate as part of the Clean Slate for Democracy to build a better future for all Arizonans.

Howdy everyone! I have had the honor of serving in the Arizona House of Representatives for the past two years. I've spent that time fighting against overreaching COVID mandates and supporting election integrity reforms. In 2021, I had more bills signed into law than any other first-year freshman in modern state history. I'm very proud I can be an effective Legislator for our district and I understand how to get the job done. During my first term, I was the Vice Chairman of the Transportation Committee. Also, I was a member of the Commerce Committee and Health Committee. Those topics are all fascinating to me and you'd be surprised what comes our way in those committees. I've spent my entire career in public policy. I've worked a combined 12 years at two different state legislatures, including here in Arizona, where I was a policy staffer for the Republican Caucus. I also worked at Americans for Prosperity, a Conservative entity focused on lowering taxes, regulations and shrinking government wherever possible. I'm running again to ensure our great state continues to be friendly for free markets and individual liberties! I look forward to earning your support.

I believe in keeping the government out of our lives. There are politicians who want to end a woman’s right to control her own body, end the right to bear arms, end the right to birth control, end the right to freedom of speech, end the right to in vitro fertilization. If this is not tyranny, what is? The two major political parties have evolved into institutions that force their members into increasingly extreme and polarizing platforms that effectively asphyxiate any debate or objection. I will stand up for our civil liberties. I might not agree with you, but I respect your right to your opinion and your right to make your own choices. I work for a Fortune 500 company in the revenue management department. I have never held a political office. Thank you and I would truly appreciate your vote.

The residents of Legislative District 7 is my ultimate focus, I will work with my colleagues to create a shared vision for work and learning; build strategic partnerships; sustain the communities progress through continuous involvement; adopt and maintain current policies, maintain strong ethical standards; and objectively seek answers to questions and challenges as they arise.

Cook, David (REP)
Candidate Info
I’m in my third term and I'm keeping my promises -- to be a strong voice for rural Arizona, to protect taxpayers and keep our budget balanced, to increase school funding and teacher pay, and to improve our transportation and water infrastructure. I've kept those promises and many others. As the only rancher in the legislature, I’m involved in lots of issues dealing with the ranching, agriculture, and farming communities in our state. I have a pro-Constitution, pro-family values, and pro-taxpayer voting record because I know that preserving and expanding freedom is my most solemn responsibility. My record is 100% pro-2nd Amendment, 100% pro-Life, and 100% pro-Taxpayer. And I continue to fight to ensure we get our share of funding for projects like the Tonto Bridge, often over the objections of Maricopa County legislators. There are too many politicians at the State Capitol and not enough of us regular folks who do the jobs that make Arizona work. I'll keep working my tail off to do the very best I can for you and I ask for your vote. On behalf of my awesome wife Diana and our amazing kids, thank you for your support and your continued trust!

Stop Trump. Stop the big lie. Protect democracy. This election is no longer Democrat vs Republican vs Independent. It’s no longer liberal vs conservative. In this election, democracy itself is on the ballot. In the 2022 primary, the GOP selected election deniers who either do not believe in or do not understand how democracy works. This is disastrous for Arizona. And as a swing state, this is potentially disastrous for the country. As a write in protest candidate, Chris Verrill has no delusions about winning. But his campaign will accomplish two things. One, you can vote with a clear conscious for a candidate who believes in free and fair elections. Two, and more important, when you go to the polls to vote for Chris Verrill, be sure to vote for Arizona candidates who also believe in free and fair elections. Vote Katie Hobbs for Governor. Vote Mark Kelly for US Senate. Vote Tom O’Halloran for US Congress. Vote Adrian Fontes for Arizona Secretary of State. Vote like American democracy depends on it. Because it does.

State Representative - District No. 8
Darrow, Caden (REP)
Candidate Info
Our district has schools that need help, rising crime rates, and families struggling with rising inflation and surging gas prices. So why are our State Representatives ignoring these problems? Hernandez and Salman vote NO on increased school funding. They vote NO on increased teacher pay. They vote NO on giving law enforcement the tools they need to do their jobs in a way that keeps everyone safer. They support higher taxes and higher spending that increase inflation and drive gas prices higher. And this last year Salman used her “fear of Covid” to justify taking the entire legislative year off. That’s right – she collected her pay, collected her per diem, but skipped going to work, voting on bills, or doing her job. Now she wants re-election? Bill Loughrige and I are running to give a voice to those who want Representatives to vote for good bills, no matter if they’re “Republican” or “Democratic”. We’re running to support more money into our classrooms, more help for our teachers, safer neighborhoods, and an end to the inflation madness that is pushing the price of grocery store staples out of reach of many Arizonans. We hope to earn your votes!

Mendoza, Mary Ann (REP)
Candidate Info
Mary Ann Mendoza was thrust into the illegal immigration fight when her son, Sgt Brandon Mendoza of Mesa PD, was tragically killed on 5/12/14, by a drunk, wrong-way illegal driver. The new administration has made it impossible to have constructive conversations-or a meeting of the minds on immigration issues requiring reform. Immigration laws must be upheld. Mary Ann Mendoza is a voice for Angel Families across America, and a victim of cancel-culture for speaking about many issues facing America. The only way to meet the challenges facing us is to get involved and take action. That is exactly what Mary Ann is stepping up for in LD 9. a Main issues facing Americans now is assault on Constitutional rights. Our educational systems are using their platform to override parental rights. Now is the time to disrupt the liberal agenda and restore respect, honor, and constitutional soundness. We the People hold the power, understanding, and rights to ensure local, state, and federal government governs for the people, in accordance with the Constitution to preserve the rights we are guaranteed as citizens of a free nation. Now is the time to make that happen.

I’m a mom, a grandma, and I’m involved in helping our returning veterans through a non-profit organization that I run. I know freedom isn’t free -- my son Brent lost both legs fighting for us in Iraq to keep America free! I’m running for State House because we need more regular citizens involved, not more lawyers or politicians. I want election integrity and ballot security so everyone can get honest, reliable election results quickly. I want school districts to focus on educating, not indoctrinating, our kids, without getting sidetracked by political agendas that have nothing to do with the Three R’s. I want to support police and fire and give them the tools they need, not have the public’s safety held hostage by radicals who want to defund and eliminate them. I want secure borders, our wall finished, and immigration laws enforced. I want balanced budgets and sensible policies to help fight inflation and high gas prices. I want a long-term plan for water issues, because as our population continues to grow, water becomes increasingly important. If you want a commonsense candidate who wants to do right, without the political games, then I ask for your vote. Thank you!

My political journey began after surviving the Iranian Revolution of 1978 and witnessing how tyranny destroys a nation. I’m running as a constitutional conservative to save Arizona and our Republic from Biden’s failed policies. I am 100% Pro-Life, Pro-Constitution, Pro-2nd Amendment, Pro-Limited Government, and Pro-Religious Freedom. I am a proud Arizona native! I’ve been married 40 years and my husband and I have raised our 4 children in Mesa. I have degrees in Nursing & Clinical Psychology with certifications in Cardiovascular & Emergency Room Medicine. I’ll stop government bureaucracies from playing politics with our health, our lives, and our civil liberties in the name of pseudoscience. I’m honored to have the endorsement of proven conservatives like State Senator Warren Petersen, Cindy Biggs (wife of Congressman Andy Biggs), US Senate Candidate—Commissioner Justin Olson, and many other grassroots leaders. We MUST HAVE COURAGE & LEADERSHIP at the capitol from those who will bring experience serving the people and who are grounded in principles that work. Your priorities are my priorities: securing the border, election integrity, parental choice, and stopping radical agendas from further overtaking our government and schools. I would be humbled and honored to earn your vote on August 2nd.
