David Farnsworth

 

  Far-right Republican member of the Arizona Senate representing District 10 since 2023. He was previously appointed to the Arizona Senate on September 11, 2013, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Rich Crandall. Farnsworth served non-consecutively in the Arizona State Legislature from January 1995 until January 1997 in the Arizona House of Representatives District 4 seat. Farnsworth is running for re-election to the Arizona State Senate to represent District 10. He is on the ballot in the Republican primary on July 30, 2024.

The anti-Drag Storey Time Bill. This bill would apply only to libraries and other government facilities.

These Arizona Candidates Still Say Donald Trump Won In 2020, Or They're Not Sure What Happened

The Arizona Republic via The Rose Law Group Reporter

"Elected officials and candidates for office in 2022 continue to challenge and question the results of the 2020 presidential election in Arizona.
 
The results have been examined and re-examined, challenged in court and in a monthslong ballot review. No evidence has been found of widespread fraud or error in the results.
 
Yet candidates deny the outcome. Others don't quite go as far. But they raise questions about potential irregularities they say could have influenced the vote and should be examined.
 
The Arizona Republic is listing candidates by category by the race that they are entered in. This list is not complete and will be updated throughout the 2022 election season.
