LD8 debate covers pandemic, ed funding, marijuana
The state’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, funding for education and the possibility of voters legalizing marijuana made for a lively discussion among the candidates from Legislative District 8 Tuesday.
The YouTube debate held by the Arizona Citizens Clean Elections Commission featured Arizona Senate candidates Republican T.J. Shope and Democrat Barbara McGuire, and House candidates Republican incumbent David Cook and Democrat Sharon Girard.
State Sen. Frank Pratt, who is running for one of the LD 8 House seats, did not attend the event.
