Today, Mark
Brnovich, candidate for Republican attorney general, announced that he has
received the endorsement of State Representative Warren Petersen. Petersen
represents Arizona House District 12 in the East Valley.
"We need a
constitutional conservative who understands the importance of states rights in
the Attorney General’s office,” said Representative Petersen.
“Mark Brnovich is the candidate to answer this call and has the
experience to take on the tough issues. Local leaders need a voice who will
stand up for them and Mark is the candidate to do just that. I'm proud to
support Mark Brnovich for Attorney General."
Representative
Petersen joins other Republican legislators including Senator Nancy Barto,
Representative Paul Boyer, Representative Debbie Lesko, Representative T.J.
Shope, Representative John Allen, Representative Brenda Barton, and
Representative Karen Fann in endorsing Mark Brnovich. Former legislators Dean
Martin, Linda Gray, Kathleen Dunbar, Amanda Reeve and Barbara Leff have also
endorsed Mark over his Republican primary opponent.
Mark Brnovich
remarked:
“I want to thank Representative Petersen for endorsing
me in the Republican primary. He and other legislators have demonstrated a great
deal of courage by endorsing a challenger who is taking on an incumbent. My
pledge to Warren and to the rest of the legislature - from both sides of the
aisle - is to not embarrass them or selfishly pursue my own political
self-interests.”
