PHOENIX — A potentially heated race is shaping up among Republicans who want to take on incumbent Democratic Secretary of State Adrian Fontes.
Gina Swoboda, who just stepped down as chair of the Arizona Republican Party, filed a “statement of interest” Tuesday to be the GOP nominee to become the state’s chief elections officer. That filing allows Swoboda to begin gathering signatures to have her name on the Aug. 4 primary ballot.
But whether Swoboda intends to take on state Rep. Alexander Kolodin remains in question.
