1 thought on “Arizona Daily Star endorsements for General Election 2020”

  1. A reader asked about the correctness of these AZ Daily Star endorsements, now that the General Election is over.
    Star got it right in endorsing winning Republicans Commissioner Lea Marquez Peterson for ACC, Rep. Bret Roberts for LD 11 House,incumbent Beth Ford for Pima County Treasurer. But they missed the mark on Sheriff Mark Napier (R) who narrowly lost to Chris Nanos (D), and Adam Ragan over Sadie Shaw for the TUSD Governing Bd. They also endorsed Democrats Joanna Mendoza and Dr. Felipe Perez in LD 11 who both also lost to the R incumbents.
