SUMMARY:Attorney Mark Robert Gordon\, candidate for CD 1 at DGT
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Please join us for a lively discussion and QA with Mark about his campaign for the open seat in AZ’s CD 1 on Monday.\, May 11th at Noon via Zoom. \n\n\n\nYou Must Register in Advance for this Event:\n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/4varcU6MRgaeOCEjXBo0lQ\n\n\n\nMark Robert Gordon is a longtime voting and civil rights advocate\, Democratic leader\, and union activist. Mark grew up in North Central Phoenix\, the son of a disabled WWII veteran and a public school teacher. He attended Phoenix public schools and put himself through Princeton\, Columbia Law\, and Harvard by working part-time jobs and earning scholarships. \n\n\n\nFor more than 30 years\, Mark has worked as a voting rights attorney and advocate\, leading voter protection efforts across the country and founding a voting rights organization dedicated to electing pro-democracy leaders. He’s even taken that commitment to protecting democracy abroad\, delivering humanitarian aid to war-torn Ukraine on three missions. \n\n\n\nA small business owner and proud union member for over 30 years\, Mark was elected as National Chair of the DNC Small Business Council\, where he brings real-world experience to advocate for policies that support workers and small businesses. He’s running for Congress to bring honest\, experienced leadership to Arizona’s First Congressional District.” \n\n\n\nCarolyn’s note: CD 1 in Phoenix will be the open seat to be vacated by current Republican Congressman David Schweikert who is running for AZ Governor against another Congressman Andy Biggs in the primary. There are 6 Dems in the July 21 primary for CD 1 including Mark Robert Gordon\, who has run for AZ Sec. of State in the past. List of the six Dem candidates are here: https://apps.arizona.vote/electioninfo/Election/68. Their Citizens Clean Elections Commission debate will be on June 23. \n\n\n\nVoter stats for CD1: Dems 135\,963; Republicans 196\,411; Independents 169\,009.
