Federal - U.S. Rep Dist. 3

☑️ Ansari, Yassamin

Yassamin is the kind of fighter we need, simply because she cares about people. All of them. Send her back to D.C. to fight for you, too.

State - Governor

☑️ Hobbs, Katie

Katie doesn't tick every box for me, but fuck purity tests. She's stopped the MAGA domination of the state legislature quite effectively. Let's keep her.

State Senator Dist. 5

☑️ Marsh, Christine

Honestly, I know very little about her. But a quick check of the bills she's sponsored clearly shows here in favor of progressive polices. She's also running unopposed, but still, please vote for her.

#PrimaryElection #vote #arizona #MaricopaCounty #Phoenix

5/x

State Representative Dist. 5 (pick 2)

☑️ Liguori, Sarah

Sarah and I met in early 2025 at a rally at the state capitol. She's a big supporter of what we're doing at the #RhRRs around the Phoenix metro.

☑️ Márquez, Aaron

I met Aaron briefly when he stopped by the RhRR on the Melrose curve, likely encouraged to visit by Sarah. He's focused on protecting democracy and opposes MAGA-led initiatives to disenchansise/discourage voting.

Justice of the Peace, Encanto

☑️ Begay, Deborah Ann

Deborah is prioritizes people over business interests, cops, and prosecutors. She's for reducing stupid fines, stopping warrantless-warrants, and protecting our more vulnerable
community members.

Constable, Encanto

☑️ Ligocki-Russel, Maria

What's with candidates not having campaign websites? I couldn't find our much about Maria, but she's running unopposed, so... why not?

Secretary of State

☑️ Fontes, Adrian

I don't know how Adrian handles the relentless onslaught of MAGA attacking him from all sides, but he does it and needs your vote.

Attorney General

☑️ Mays, Kris

It's unlikely I'll ever love anyone running for the AG spot (ACAB), but I'd rather have Kris in office than whatever authoritarian MAGA puts forth in November. So vote for her now.

State Treasurer

☑️ Mansour, Nick

I don't know Nick, but his campaign priorities are progressive enough for me. Invest in education, stop the rich from getting richer at taxpayer expenses... those sorts of things.

Superintendent of Public Instruction

☑️ Newby, Brett Matthew

Of the two candidates, Brett is by far the most progressive. And my entire goal with this primary is to strike fear into the hearts of centrist Dems.

I'm not interested in ideological litmus tests. I'm not looking for perfection. I just want to get the electorate excited about voting for candidates who are also sick of the status quo.

Sound fun? Do you also live in Federal District 3, State District 5, and are in the Encanto local district? This is for you.

State Mine Inspector

☑️ Matlock, Brian

Yeah, I'd like mining shut down as much as you, but that's not what this job is about. Brian's priorities are where they need to be, and he's not a MAGA lapdog like Presmyk promises to be.

Corporation Commission

☑️ Hill, Jonathon

An actual scientist in this position is enough to make me salivate. I like his positions on increasing renewables and protecting our dwindling water supply.

Corporation Commission , cont:

☑️ Pratte, Clara

Clara already is investing in clean energy with her own company, Navajo Power. Her efforts to lower energy consumer costs seem focused on cleaner and cheaper sources, not just slashing rates on out-dated generation methods.

County

Clerk of the Superior Court

☑️ Matta, Sebastion "Seb" Maximiliano

We need more young people in public office. At 18, he fits that bill. And he wants to make the Superior Court ”respect the integrity and sanctity of the judicial system."

My approach to primaries is two-fold:

1. Put as many progressive candidates on the ballot for the General Election in November as possible

2. Scare the living shit out of centrist Democratic candidates so they adopt progressive policies that will resonate with disenfranchised people who don't see the need to voting for feckless Democrats

Arizonans are among the worst when it comes voting in primary elections, so I made a voting guide for the #PrimaryElection coming up on July 21st to help fix that!
