Wait Months for Election Results?

A note on our Senator Wendy Rogers from Arizona Agenda today: If you like waiting months to hear the results of the election, then you’ll love Senate Bill 1338, which would send Arizona back decades as far as election technology is concerned.

Rogers Raises $2.5M. Spends With Her Nephew.

Dillon Rosenblatt, a journalist with KJAZZ, reports that State Senator Wendy Rogers broke another record for Arizona legislative fundraising. In 2021, she garnered $2,500,000 to support her effort to keep her $24,000 per year job in the Legislature, raising more than any AZ GOP Gubernatorial candidate.

Wendy Rogers: Wrong for AZ Senate

Legislative District 6 Deserves Better than This Republican Character and competence are on the ballot this year, a proposition applicable to all campaigns, including state and local races.

Cory Gardner. Joni Ernst. Thom Tillis. Lindsey Graham. What do they all have in common?

They are all former state legislators. They are far-right Republicans. They are all sitting United States Senators. While we have good hope of unseating at least some of them in November, let’s look to the future and see if we can learn something about how they got there.
