TURN AZ BLUE!

| Our Mission |
- We intend to bring together activists, bloggers, and voters to work toward progressive political change in Arizona.
- By sharing information and keeping each other informed, we can coordinate efforts to promote progressive causes and candidates.
- We hope to provide a forum for local Democratic candidates to present their positions on issues of concern to Arizonans.
- Anyone who shares our goals is welcome to join and contribute.
- The age of open source politics is here. Lobbyists and special interests have run Arizona for too long.
- Let's take back Arizona from the big money special interests and the right wing crazies!

Attempting to restore the dominance of big money in Arizona politics, State Treasurer Dean Martin is once again trying to overturn Arizona's Clean Elections law.
The legal battle against Arizona's system of publicly funded statewide and legislative political campaigns was renewed Nov. 27 with the filing of an amended federal lawsuit seeking to topple the Clean Elections Act.
The filing by Arizona Treasurer Dean Martin and two pro-business groups hoping to join the fray is a renewed fight that began in 2004 when Martin, who was a state senator at the time, several other Republicans and a doctors' political action committee claimed the act effectively drowns free speech and coerces candidates to accept public campaign funding. |
