Arizona House Battle in LD 23

Arizona’s swing Legislative District 23, stretching from Goodyear to Yuma, is heating up as Democrats race to claim two nomination spots ahead of the July 21 primary. With early voting starting June 24 and a critical Clean Elections debate livestreamed that same day, voters have four Democrats to choose from: Emilia Cortez (who’s skipping the debate), Juan Guerrero (a former justice of the peace with a DUI history), Naomi Miguel (with D.C. experience in Native American education), and incumbent Rep. Mariana Sandoval (a savvy debater). The district’s razor-thin Democratic edge and large independent bloc make it a pivotal battleground — whoever wins could tip the balance in the Arizona House, as the general election pits the two Democratic nominees against two unopposed Republicans.
