GOVERNOR Incumbent: Doug Ducey (R) Doug Ducey Party: Republican Campaign Funding: Traditional Website: dougducey.com Doug Ducey is committed to continuing to expand opportunity for all Arizonans – and as a successful businessman, he’s brought much needed change to Arizona government. After graduating from ASU, he worked for Procter and Gamble and then Cold Stone Creamery, where he helped grow a small company to one with over 1,440 locations worldwide. Alarmed by deficit spending and the growth of government, Doug ran for public office, first for Arizona State Treasurer then governor. Building on his business experience, Doug took a $1 billion deficit in his first year and balanced it – without raising taxes. During his tenure, Arizona’s economy has created 160,000 new jobs with the lowest unemployment rate in 10 years. He has invested $2.7 billion new dollars into public schools – again, without raising taxes. As a result, teachers across Arizona are finally receiving significant raises – raises they deserve. He’s cut regulations to stimulate jobs, streamlined government operations and reduced taxes every year. In addition, Doug launched Arizona’s Border Strike Force, a partnership with local, state and federal law enforcement to enhance border security. He also successfully eliminated a massive backlog of untested rape kits, resulting in numerous arrests. He and his wife, Angela, have three sons. David Garcia Party: Democratic Campaign Funding: Traditional Website: dg4az.com/ David Garcia knows that our economy is stacked against us and believes it is time to stand up and say enough. Our schools rank forty eighth in funding, and the middle class is getting crushed while Governor Ducey works for the special interests that hike utility rates and line their pockets while we pay the price. Garcia will fight to make big corporations and the wealthiest pay their fair share so our children can get a good education and our workers get a living wage. David Garcia has 6 spent his career dedicated to Arizona public schools so every child has a shot at a quality education. As a professor and associate state superintendent, he earned a reputation as a leader who found common ground, smart solutions, and built consensus. David Garcia stands FOR everything that Donald Trump opposes, such as a government that works for the people and not wealthy special interests and the chance for EVERY child to have the best shot at opportunity and the American Dream. In the face of Donald Trump's extreme policies and rhetoric,
