| 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!

| The Arizona Democratic Party will hold a State Committee Meeting to elect yet another State Chair at the Wyndham Phoenix tomorrow. The Wyndham is located at 50 E. Adams in Phoenix. Registration begins at 8am and the meeting will start at 10am. Only those on the Democratic State Committee can vote, but others are encouraged to come and watch democracy in action.
At this point, the only announced candidate is previous State Chair Don Bivens. It had previously been speculated that Bob Lord might throw his hat in the ring, but Lord has decided not to do so.
Bivens was defeated in a previous election by Paul Eckerstrom of Tucson, but Eckerstrom resigned after only two short weeks, concluding he could not handle the duties of State Chair from Tucson. Eckerstrom was a candidate drafted at the last minute by some dissatisfied with Bivens, and Eckerstrom unexpectedly won.
Will there be another surprise last minute candidate? Will this one stay for a while, if elected? Stay tuned. You sure can't say that Arizona politics are boring. Bring some popcorn, this should be a good one. |
