Statement
As Secretary of State, my sole focus will be on serving all voters, regardless of political affiliation, and administering elections that are secure, transparent, honest, and follow the law, while delivering fast results that all Arizonans can have confidence in on election night. I've been fighting for Arizonans' civil liberties, including the right to free and fair elections, for well over a decade. As an experienced election attorney, I've successfully challenged my opponent Adrian Fontes' numerous and repeated violations of the law in court. As a member of the Arizona House of Representatives, I've been the state's most successful election policy-focused legislator — achieving broad bipartisan support for some of the most important election laws in state history. I've fought to protect the voting rights of military members, veterans, the disabled, rural voters, and voters from every Party, income level, race, gender and age. The reality is that the process of administering elections shouldn't be about right vs. left or rich vs. poor. Election administration is about following the law, running world class elections, and delivering fast results that voters can trust. I'm Alex Kolodin and I'm humbly asking for your vote to be Arizona's next Secretary of State.
