Republicans already held 31 governor- ships to the Democrats’ 18—Alaska Gov. Bill Walker is an Independent—and with about half the gubernatorial elections considered competitive, Republicans had the potential to increase their control to 36 governors’ mansions. For their part, Democrats had a realistic chance to convert only a couple of Republican governorships to their party. Given the party’s win-loss potential, Republicans were optimistic, in a good position.

  • ROSE MOFFORD Honored As a Historymaker 1999
    Arizona HistorymakersJ Oral History Transcript Historical League, Inc. 8 2018 ROSE MOFFORD 1922 - 2016 Honored as a Historymaker 1999 Arizona’s First Woman Governor The following is an oral history interview with Rose Mofford (RM) conducted by Reba Wells Grandrud (RG) for Historical League, Inc. on June 5, 1998, in the home of Pat Mason, chairman of the 1999 Historymakers Gala 5, Phoenix, Arizona. Transcripts for website edited by members of Historical League, Inc. Original tapes are in the collection of the Arizona Heritage Center Archives, an Historical Society Museum, Tempe, Arizona. RG: Governor Mofford has been named a 1999 Historymaker by the Historical League of the Central Arizona Division of Arizona Historical Society. Governor Mofford, as you know, the Central Arizona Division of the Historical Society has a great collection of oral history tapes, transcripts, and memorabilia that was gathered when we were celebrating the United States bicentennial. And at that time, CAD, or Central Arizona Division, was the Phoenix Historical Society. It was housed in the Shackelford House at 1 242 North Central. In 1 976, February, you were interviewed by Karin Ullmann. And, of course, the focus at that time was on the Phoenix area and, mostly, your long time service with Arizona state government. I'd like to supplement that interview with some of your thoughts on what has happened in the 20 years since that interview. But, first, could we start with some background on you as a native of Arizona. Now, we all know that you were born in Globe, county seat of Gila County, but maybe you could tell us your name, birth date, something about your parents, what brought them to Arizona, that kind of thing.
