With the holidays right around the corner, a lot of people are offline, and we’re falling short. We can’t let that happen. If we’re going to defeat our MAGA opponent and all the Republican P…

Did you know this about Kirsten?

John,  Before running for Congress, Kirsten spent five years working in the Arizona State Legislature — first in the House, then in the Senate. The reputation she got while working there speaks for itself.  In 2019, she was named best Democratic Legislator for her “law-school-professor-does-her-damn…

He made up a text and walked away.  Unfortunately for Ciscomani, he isn’t always …
