The Republican candidates running for the state’s top seat had few differences on major issues. The GOP candidates attended a forum at the Desert View Performing Arts Center in SaddleBrooke May 14.
Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett, State Treasurer Doug Ducey, Christine Jones, Sen. Al Melvin, District 11 – Oro Valley, Frank Riggs and Mesa Mayor Scott Smith attended the forum. The auditorium was primarily filled with SaddleBrooke residents as the candidates gave opening statements, answered questions on issues and finished out the forum with their closing statements.
