I am Elizabeth Brown, candidate for the Arizona State Senate and I stand for women, families, and education. Women's Reproductive Freedom: Reproductive freedoms are crucial as they empower individuals to make decisions about their own bodies, health and futures. Access to contraception, IVF and safe abortion services allows women to plan their families, pursue education, careers and maintain overall well-being. These freedoms are fundamental for gender equality and autonomy. By supporting women in making choices about their reproductive health, society fosters the individual, economic stability, and social progress. Safe Fanilies: As an Arizona State Senate candidate, prioritizing teen safety is critical. I advocate for policies promoting education, mental health support, and safe environments to empower our youth. Education: I prioritize public education for its role in shaping future generations. Investing in public education fosters informed citizens, builds community, boosts economic growth and decreases inequality. I advocate for equitable funding, quality resources, and accessible education to ensure a brighter future for all. Having worked under Governors Napolitano (D) and Jan Brewer (R) and in the State Senate, I have the insight and knowledge to make effective change. I humbly ask for your vote.

Former Chairman of the Judiciary Committee and member of the Ethics Committee. Successfully passed many bills into law that have limited government, protected faith, family, freedom, individual rights, public safety and parental choice.
Thank you for your continued trust and support and for allowing me to serve you! I currently serve as the President of the State Senate, which has been a first line of defense when it comes to protecting the taxpayers and families of our district and state. I remain a top-ranked conservative in the Legislature and have been awarded Small Business Legislator of the Year, Hero of the Taxpayer, #1 for Constitutional Voting, Free Market Champion, Top Regulatory Reformer, Guardian of Small Business, 'A' rating by NRA, and Friend of the Family. We need proven conservatives to protect Arizona from the liberal Biden and Hobbs agenda at the legislature, which is why I am running as a team with Laurin Hendrix and Khyl Powell. Please help elect a team that works together. Hendrix and Powell face primary challenges from candidates who do not have a proven voting record. Secure borders, secure elections, safe streets, a strong economy, good schools, parental rights, and so much more are at stake. Let's stick with proven conservatives with the backbone this job requires. Visit www.votewarrenpetersen.com to learn more and contact me anytime with any questions. Thank you!

On the family side of things, he has been blessed with eight children who attended Arizona public schools and are his greatest accomplishments in life.

He's a licensed private pilot and former merit badge counselor and Eagle Scout Review Board member for the Boy Scouts of America.
I agreed to return to the Legislature because a lot of really important issues were dying by one- vote margins. I knew that every seat matters and we need consistent conservatives. You elected me and I went to work, keeping my promises to you. Strong border bills, legislation to clean up our elections and increase transparency in the process, protecting school choice and parental rights, improving health care and how insurance companies must treat customers, protecting girls' sports, and so much more. I'm running with Warren Petersen and Khyl Powell. REMEMBER, YOU GET TWO VOTES FOR STATE HOUSE! Vote Hendrix AND Powell. Why support the team? Becase it makes no sense to elect one of us, then one of our opponents to cancel out our vote. Fighting the left and winning will require proven and trustworthy conservatives, working together, to get the job done. Everyone campaigns as conservative Republicans in our district, even liberal Democrats. Don't be fooled. Help keep Arizona great, help keep our economy on track, and help stop the radical left. Every vote matters, so please elect your conservative team of Petersen, Hendrix and Powell, and THANK YOU for doing your part. We won't let you down!

State Representative - District 14
Republican
https://www.votelalani.com/
Lalani Hunsaker is running for the Arizona State House of Representatives in District 14. She and her husband, Nate, have lived in the district for 19 years. Three of their four children were born in the area and the Hunsakers have chosen to live, work and raise their family in this community. They are completely invested in District 14 and Arizona. That is why Lalani is running for office; because she loves this state and the people who call it home. She has worked in and around politics her entire adult life. Lalani believes that she is uniquely qualified to represent the district and contribute to making Arizona better.
District 14 needs a proven Conservative voice to fight for us at the Capitol. Our country has gone through a dark and seismic shift under Biden. Too many elected officials have put power and radical agendas ahead of We the People. The impact of the open border crisis can no longer be sustained. 2024 can be the turnaround year for our state and country, but we must act swiftly, boldly and decisively. Leadership doesn't start in Washington, it starts locally, with courageous concerned citizens. I'm not a politician. I'm a wife, mom, and unapologetic conservative. I love this community more than words can explain. My children were born here and Nate and I have made Gilbert home for nearly twenty years. I have run a business, served in our community and fought tirelessly for education reform. I'm running to be the bold conservative voice our community desperately needs. I will fight to secure our border and our elections, put our families first, fight for education outcomes and options, protect Arizona's water future, stand up for small businesses, and prioritize public safety. Trust me with your vote and I'll be your voice in the Capitol to make Arizona great again!

Khyl Powell
State Representative - District 14
Republican
https://www.khylpowell.com
My beautiful wife Lorrain and I have lived in Arizona most of my life and in Gilbert for 25+ years. We're blessed with three children and eleven grandchildren. I've worked for the Phoenix Police Department and the FBI, consulted for Fortune 500 companies, owned and managed a successful Industrial Real Estate Development company, and owned and served as President of a multi-million dollar service company for 24 years. Locally I've served on the Town of Gilbert Planning and Zoning Board and the Small Business Alliance board. I'm also a lifelong Republican who has been active in the Party for years.
Today, more than ever, our freedoms are being targeted from every side and we need to push back with renewed vigor to protect life, our freedom of speech, our 2nd amendment rights, our economy and more. We are over-regulated, over-governed and over-taxed at the federal level and those on the left want to do the same to us at the state and local levels. I've had a great career running successful businesses and I was looking forward to spending time with my grandkids when the call came, asking me to run for office. Our district needed a conservative everyone could count on, so my wife and I prayed on it and committed ourselves to the effort. I'm proud to be on the Petersen, Hendrix and Powell team because they are proven, rock-ribbed conservatives. We have opponents who disagree with us and that's okay. You get to vote and choose the government you want. But if you want secure borders and elections, lower inflation and prices, your rights and liberties secured, safe neighborhoods and schools, and so much more, please vote for proven and trusted conservatives - Petersen, Hendrix AND Powell (you get TWO votes for State House). Thank you!
