Is "slow walk" on the exercise list for the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors? If so, they're about to get very fit

 First, the caveats about some of the folks mentioned in this post:


Future Rep, Jevin Hodge ran for Congress in 2022 and I contributed to that campaign.

Former Rep. Jennifer Longdon is someone I've voted for and I contributed to her reelection campaign.

Former Rep. Amish Shah is someone I've voted for and I signed his nominating petition a few cycles ago.


Former State Rep. Athena Salman resigned on 1/1.  The MCBOS finally appointed Jevin Hodge to fill her seat yesterday.  LD8 is still down a rep though - he won't be sworn in until tomorrow.

Of course, LD8 has more representation than LD5.  Both reps from LD5, Jennifer Longdon and Amish Shah have resigned.

LD5 will be completely without any representation in the AZ House until the MCBOS gets around to doing its job.  I don't recommend that anyone hold their breath while waiting for that to happen.

Salman and Longdon have left the legislature to pursue other opportunities while Shah doing something similar - he resigned in order to focus on a run for Congress.

On the other hand, former Rep. Leezah Sun of LD22 was in a "resign or get expelled" situation.

So, she left on her own.


I wish them all well in their future endeavors, even Sun.


Though the people of their districts shouldn't expect them to be replaced soon.
