Arizona Candidate For State Treasurer Jeff DeWit Proven Record. Great Momentum.

As I’ve been traveling throughout our state, introducing myself and sharing why I truly believe I’m the best candidate to serve as Arizona’s next State Treasurer, the support I have received has been astounding and incredibly humbling. Each and every individual I meet on the campaign trail reminds me of the reasons why I want this job – to protect and serve the future of our great state while preserving and furthering Arizona’s financial prosperity. The primary job of the State Treasurer is to protect Arizona’s investment portfolio, worth over $12 Billion. This portfolio needs to be entrusted to a proven financial professional from the business and investment community, not a career politician. I am that proven professional. My personal experience and professional background in the financial industry gives me a solid foundation for my duties as State Treasurer. My experience allows me to begin my first day in office with decades of proven investment results, successful corporate leadership and hard-learned lessons behind me. My background includes: • Investment Professional for over 20 years, one of the youngest members of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade.   • Founded a financial services firm and served as CEO from our Phoenix HQ for 14 years.   • Degree in Business Administration with a minor in Finance and an Accounting degree. • Lifelong Republican; Precinct and State Committeeman in LD22. • Married to Marina; Father of three beautiful girls and reside in the Northwest Valley.

Marana,Arizona Mayor Ed Honea Endorses Andy Tobin For US CongressTobin

“Tobin is a battle-tested conservative hero of individual freedom…”

The wave of Pima County support continues to flood in for Andy Tobin’s congressional campaign. This week, Marana Mayor Ed Honea throws his support behind Tobin’s effort to defeat Kirkpatrick and return Arizona’s 1st Congressional District to its conservative values. Mayor Honea’s support comes the week following Marana Town Councilwoman Patti Comerford’s endorsement for Tobin's campaign.

"There is no other candidate in the race for Arizona’s 1st Congressional District that I would consider supporting," said Marana Mayor Ed Honea. "Tobin is a battle-tested conservative hero of individual freedom, job creation, economic development and 2nd Amendment rights. He has been fighting against ObamaCare since the law was first introduced. He battles for smaller government, lower taxes and balanced budgets everyday. Tobin is the reason we have concealed carry, E-Verify, and a ban on partial-birth abortion. It is for these reasons and many others that I am proudly endorsing Andy Tobin for Congress. I encourage anyone who values individual liberty and our Constitution to do the same."

"I sincerely thank Mayor Honea for his support," said Tobin. "I look forward to taking Marana’s voice to Washington and continuing the fight for Arizona’s conservative values from the first day I am elected. We have accomplished a lot in Arizona and I firmly believe that Washington will benefit from the hard work we have done here. With folks like Mayor Honea behind us, we will be unstoppable in defeating Kirkpatrick and making sure that Pelosi does not return to the Speaker’s chair."

Hugh Hallman Candidate AZ State Treasurer Great Tunes for a Great Campaign

Get Ready to Rock, Literally, For an AZ leader

Big Valley Music Names to Rock on at Scottsdale Fundraiser for the Hugh Hallman for Treasurer Campaign

(SCOTTSDALE) You can’t spell fundraising without “fun.”
And fun is on the menu the night of Thursday, April 10, when Gin Blossoms vocalist and guitarist Jesse Valenzuela, Arizona folk+rock+reggae warrior Walt Richardson, and Mark Zubia & Friends take the stage at a campaign fundraiser for Hugh Hallman. It’s a night of some of the Valley’s biggest names in music taking the stage for one of the Valley’s most respected candidates.
Valenzuela was part of the musical juggernaut that took the airwaves by siege. The Gin Blossoms, with their breakout record “New Miserable Experience” in 1992, burned up the charts for almost three years with singles “Hey Jealousy,” “Allison Road,” “Until I Fall Away,” “Mrs. Rita,” and “Found Out About You.” The album sold over four million copies. As a member of the Gin Blossoms, Valenzuela has toured the world and performed on Leno, Letterman, Saturday Night Live and at The Grammys.
Hallman and Valenzuela are lifelong friends and went to grade school and high school together.
Also entertaining the supporters will be Walt Richardson, who has shared the stage with Ziggy Marley and is a member of the Arizona Entertainment and Music Hall of Fame. And Mark Zubia, with 30 years of music experience under his belt, helped conceive the powerhouse group the Chimeras and their newest incarnation as the Pistoleros, will be joined by friends for some powerful songs.
Hallman is a candidate for Arizona State Treasurer. He is also the former Mayor of Tempe, where his mix of business expertise, community knowledge and commitment to governing the right way helped the city reverse budget deficits, improve public safety, and spark economic development.
That all lays the groundwork for Hallman to “Rock the Treasurer’s Office” – which is the theme of the April 10 music and fundraising event. It all will take place from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at The Walterdome, 6425 East Thomas Rd. in Scottsdale. Snacks and beverages will be served amid the buzz of conversation and guitar riffs.
A $25 contribution to Hallman’s campaign gets you in the door.

Damien Kennedy Arizona Candidate for Congress CD 3

WATCH VIDEO
For those who don’t know me, Damien Kennedy, I was born and raised in Missouri and have lived in Arizona for over 8 years. While living in Arizona, I attended college in Phoenix and earned my college degrees (AA - visual communications and BA Multimedia/Web design).  My daughter is graduating from high school in a couple of months, and my son is currently in 4^th grade in Amado.  I have served as President for our local PTO, and I have volunteered to serve as den leader for local Cub Scout Pack for the past 3 years.  My wife, Yolanda, and I have been happily married for over 10 years.

 I was recently, politely asked when I was going to drop out of the Republican Primary for the Congressional District 3 seat for Congress because someone thought I could not win the nomination, and the question surprised and honestly irritated me.  However the question even made more clear who I will be representing when I am elected to Congress.

 During my campaign I have often said that one of the reasons that someone should consider supporting me for Congress is because I AM one of the people that I will be representing.  I am not wealthy and never served in political office before – I’m just an average citizen who wants to serve my fellow citizens.

 As an average middle class citizen, I am uniquely qualified to represent my fellow citizens – just as the founding fathers had intended from the beginning. 

As a working man, I know the feelings felt by those who lose their job and the feelings felt by so many who are just getting by. 

 As a father, I know the concerns of the future we will leave for our children, and the desire to give our children a leg up in life through a world class education – all our children. 

 As a man of faith, I see the world through the eyes of a Christian who is concerned for all those who don’t really know God’s love, but recognize that God is the only one who can save them and it is not my place to judge – instead my place is to love my neighbors as I love myself.

 As a college educated person, I know the concerns of those trying to repay student loans during one of the worst economies our country has ever seen, and like most, I don’t see much improvement in the job market for many people – a lot of people are hurting.

 As a candidate who is walking neighborhoods, shaking hands and listening to your concerns, I vow to never give up on our campaign.  During the primary, I also vow to conduct our campaign in a way which doesn’t attack fellow Republican candidates – they are my competition, but not my foe.  If, in the end, you don’t select me as your nominee, I will urge my supporters to fully support whoever is selected to run in the general election this fall, but make no mistake, I intend that to be Damien Kennedy.

Who better to represent you than a candidate who is willing to bring my message to the public one citizen at a time?  You, as a fellow citizen, are the most important person in this campaign, because you have the power to change things in Washington DC, by letting me serve you as your Representative.  I might be an underdog in the eyes of some, but you won’t be disappointed when you let me be your Bulldog in Congress!

Shawnna Bolick Candidate For Arizona House LD28 Receives Endorsement from Barry Goldwater, Jr.

Today, I received the endorsement from former congressman and conservative leader Barry Goldwater, Jr. the son of Arizona icon Barry Goldwater.
“With so many serious challenges facing the State of Arizona, I support Shawnna Bolick for the Legislature 110%,” stated former Congressman Goldwater, Jr. “She has one of the sharpest minds of anyone I’ve met in Arizona politics. Her bold ideas in education reform and steadfast common sense are two things I admire most about Shawnna. She has the potential to help lead Arizona into a brighter future – one that is more self-reliant, and one that holds to its independent values that I love so much about this state. Shawnna’s pro-growth, free market, and fiscal conservative ideas are the ones this state needs to get our fiscal house in order. She will bring a fresh, yet bold and principled leadership the Republican Party lacks.”
“I am thrilled to have Congressman Barry Goldwater, Jr.’s endorsement,” stated Bolick. “We share many of the same conservative ideals and we both believe in public service. Goldwater has been bold and steadfast in his beliefs, and the State of Arizona can trust I will lead with a similar “Goldwater” vision. I have also tapped Barry Goldwater, Jr. to be my honorary campaign chair.”

An Arizona Success Story-Doug Ducey Candidate for Arizona Governor

So many of us in Arizona are from somewhere else, and we share the special experience of knowing this state is one of the best places to live in the country. 

Doug Ducey Web Site
Back in 1982, my college counselor pointed at a map and said school is affordable out West and there’s a lot of opportunity. 

He was right then and, 30 years later, he is still right today. Arizona is a place of great opportunity.

In 1996, I took a chance on an ice cream company called Cold Stone Creamery. Along with a few others, we took a great product, started small, and built it to more than 1400 stores operating in all 50 states. Today it’s in 25 countries around the world. It’s an American success story, and I’m proud that it all started right here in Arizona.

Here are just a few of our achievements during my time at Cold Stone Creamery:

• Cold Stone Creamery is awarded "Best of Phoenix" for the first time in 1996
• Nation’s Restaurant News “Golden Chain” Award, 2006
• #14 on Entrepreneur magazine’s 2007 “Franchise 500” list
• Nation’s Restaurant News’s “Top 100” in 2007

We did it the right way – big dreams, hard work and great people. Things like that happen when opportunity is in the air and when a state is welcoming to free enterprise. Arizona is one of those states, and as governor, I will be committed to making it even stronger.

It didn’t happen by accident – there was lots of hard work involved – but I don't think we would have seen the same levels of success if we had started Cold Stone Creamery in another state.

If you agree with me that Arizona is a place of great opportunity, please join the thousands of Arizonans who have signed my nomination petition by adding your name today. Together, we can grow many more success stories like Cold Stone Creamery in Arizona.

Respectfully,
Doug
