“Join the Tanque Verde Dems Drop-In on Saturday, May 9th at 10:30am featuring candidates: Edgar Soto for LD17 Senate and Kristel Foster for Justice of the Peace Precinct 8. It will be held at the Kirk-Bear Canyon Library, 8959 E Tanque Verde Rd. Go to http://tanqueverdedems.org for updates.”

Carolyn’s note: Edgar Soto ran for Pima County Supervisor District 3 in the 4 way Dem primary of July, 2024. He is running for the open Senate seat in LD 17, since Senator Vince Leach (R) is retiring. He will face the winner of the Republican primary on July 21, 2026 in the General Election.

Foster was elected to Justice of the Peace seat for Precinct 8 in Nov. 2022. Prior to this she served 2 terms (8 years) on the Tucson United School District governing board (nonpartisan, unpaid position) from 2013 thru 2020.
