As part of our ongoing commitment to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Mohave Today have submitted a request under the Arizona Public Records Law § 39.101 et seq. for information regarding the candidates running in the upcoming election.
The requested records include detailed information about each candidate such as their first, middle, and last names; the office they are running for; jurisdiction of the office; and party affiliation. In addition to this, we have also asked for all contact information for each candidate including their address, phone number, and email address.
