Top Issues for Arizona Voters
In December 2021 and April 2022, Clean Elections polled voters across the state to find out what issues were important to them. Specifically, we asked voters what issues they needed to know about from the candidates in preparation for our 2022 Primary Debate series. You can view the top issues identified in the Clean Elections poll by clicking the image below and by reading the full report. Once we learned what the top issues were for voters, we partnered with the Center for the Future of Arizona to share their findings on these top issues with voters so they can prepare for the Clean Elections debates.
A Letter From the Voter Education Director
When Arizonans passed the Citizens Clean Elections Act, their goal was to promote participation in elections and political campaigns that focus on real issues that affect voters’ lives. This year is an important election year, with all statewide offices on the ballot, along with the entire legislature. The decisions you make this year will help set the course for Arizona.
This page will serve as your hub for information to help you participate in Clean Elections debates and cast an informed ballot in the Aug 2, 2022 Primary Election. Review the data and information below and watch a Clean Elections sponsored candidate debate to hear how candidates are addressing these issues.
Clean Elections debates work together with your vote to make sure your voice is heard. This year, we have compiled data from voters around the state about what issues matter most to us. Some of those issues you will agree with, some of them you may not. Our goal in presenting this information is to support a civic dialogue in our state and local communities.
Civic engagement is not passive, nor is the public debate. We hope you will submit questions for the candidates as your priorities are what should be discussed during the Clean Elections debates.
Sincerely,
Gina Roberts - Voter Education Director, Clean Elections
