Committees update - state (update)

 Just a quick post with some new state level candidate committees, courtesy the website of the AZSOS.


Matt Salmon, Republican, is running for governor.  He's a former member of Congress, chair of the AZGOP, and failed former candidate for governor (2002).


Kris Mayes is running, for, well, *something*.  That's undefined at this point, which is not news.  That usually indicates pursuit of a federal office, but I can't find anything on the FEC's website at this point.

Edited on 6/24 to update: The AZSOS' website now indicates that Mayes is running for AZ Attorney General.


Nope, the news part is that she is running as a Democrat.  Given that when she was a member of the Corporation Commission, she was the only decent human being among the Rs on the ACC, this development isn't much of a surprise.


Adrian Fontes, Democratic former Maricopa County Recorder, is running for Secretary of State.


Reginald Bolding, Democratic leader in the AZ House of Representatives, is running for Secretary of State.
