Did AZ Senate PPT Debbie Lesko already resign her state senate seat? I thought that it was a prerequisite for filing for the special election.
Near as I can tell Lesko has yet to resign.
Steve Montenegro has resigned and been replaced in the AZ Senate by Dairy Farmer Sine Kerr (appointed by the Marciopa County board from a list of 3 chosen by local Republicans).
Part of what is confusing it that there are FOUR elections for Congressional District 8 in the next 10 months and there are different filing dates and lists for each. There may be some filing mistakes made.
First there is a primary for the special election. That Primary is in February on the 27. It is the primary for the Special Election on the 24th of April to fill the vacant seat.
Then we turn right around and have a primary and a general election this August and November for the same seat all over again.

Now the other thing for non Locals is the big election signs for Phil Lovas, who was Trumps state chair, show he and the President in a picture together. Well local news has had video and interviews with Phil because the local Party of Love and Equality people have been defacing them with swastikas.
