2012 Legislative committees...so far

Here is a list of people with 2012 legislative campaign committees.  It won't be a comprehensive list as candidates can still get into a race or may run under an older but still active committee (Russell Pearce is running in 2012 under his committee from the 2008 cycle - 200810079).  In addition, the list may include names of people who formed a committee and then decided to run for another office or have simply withdrawn for other reasons.  When I have information regarding that area, or other pertinent information, I'll note it.

Lastly, instead of noting the number of the district that the candidates are running in, I'm going to list the city of the filer's address.  The problem is that some of the committees were formed on the basis of the current legislative district maps, and some were formed on the basis of the new maps.

It will be less confusing to just list the cities.

Candidates (name, filer ID, party, city, office) (note: the candidate names were copied and pasted from the SOS' website.  If the names are in all caps, it's from the SOS, not me):
