Arizona Democratic Party Congratulates Statewide Nominees on their Victory

PHOENIX – Arizonans have spent the last month voting, whether it was by mail or in person, and today we officially have our statewide slate of nominees for the November General Election. The Arizona Democratic Party congratulates all of those who ran at such a pivotal time in our state’s history. Running for office these days can be extremely challenging, and even at times dangerous, and we are always grateful to those who come forward to lead. 

“Arizona voters know what is at stake in this election, and they have chosen their leaders to take on the extremists on the other side of the aisle,” said Raquel Terán, Chair of the Arizona Democratic Party. “This state has been under the thumb of Republican control for too long, and voters are tired of being ignored and taken advantage of. Come November, it will be clear that our Democratic candidates have real plans to move us forward, while the Republican party aims to take us backward.”

Our state has gained national attention for the many extremists running on the Republican side. At every level of government, their candidates are out of line with what Arizonans want. The nation will be watching us, and Arizona voters will show this country what it looks like to reject extremism. The Arizona Democratic Party is beyond proud to support: 

Katie Hobbs for Governor

Adrian Fontes for Secretary of State

Kris Mayes for Attorney General 

Kathy Hoffman for Superintendent of Public Instruction

Martín Quezada for State Treasurer 

Lauren Kuby and Sandra Kennedy for Corporation Commission
