Timestamp Meeting Date Agenda Item First and Last Name Zip Code Representing Comments Good morning, My name is Brian Anthony Utz and I am a lifelong Arizona resident from the Verde Valley. I’m attending this morning’s meeting with the intention to voice my concerns regarding the potential use of Haystaq for Arizona’s redistricting process. The fact that Haystaq has received blatantly favorable support from the Democratic Party, former President Barack Obama, and presidential hopeful/Senator Bernie Sanders is reason enough to warrant to concern of Arizona citizens in a time where election integrity is of concern for the majority of Americans. Use of The use of Haystaq, an openly biased company, is an extremely inappropriate choice for Haystaq for the state of Arizona, as Arizona is a state with a diverse political background that is home Redistricting to closely equal representation of both parties. Mapping For this reason, I urge you to look beyond Haystaq as a candidate for redistricting needs. 4/27/2021 9:15:04 April 27, 2021 needs Brian Utz 86325 Thank you.

Haystaq 4/27/2021 9:15:11 April 27, 2021 decision Matt Lake 85395 Oppose I do not support using Haystaq In this politically charged environment of hyper partisanship, the goal of an independent commission should be neutrality. Consideration of HastaqDNA, a firm that touts its ties to the success of the Obama and Sanders campaigns as their mission statement, should be an obvious reason for disqualification. The mere suggestion of hiring this firm casts doubt as to whether or not the Redistricting Commission is in fact a neutral body.
