MAGA Candidate Lost The AZ House Primary. Then He Doubled Down For The General Election.
"FOX 10 tried speaking with Slaton back in June at the Trumped Store in Show Low, owned by Steve and his wife Karen Slaton. Both of them did not want to talk to FOX 10 about the allegations of stolen valor. The Navajo County GOP discovered Slaton provided an "altered DD-214 claiming combat veteran status and showing qualifications and awards" he never earned. FOX10 obtained those records through Guardians of the Green Beret and Guardian of Valor, veteran organizations that say Slaton misrepresented his military service in Vietnam and his claims of serving as a Cobra helicopter pilot."

Arizona Republicans Demand GOP Candidate Withdraw Over Military Claims
"The Navajo County Republican Committee asked Steve Slaton, who is running to represent Legislative District 7, to end his campaign for falsely claiming that he was a Vietnam War veteran and that he had been awarded multiple military medals. A veterans group said Slaton trained as a helicopter repairman, not as a helicopter pilot, and he was stationed in Korea in 1974. Slaton also did not join the U.S. Army until June 1973 — three months after the final U.S. troops pulled out of Vietnam, the Arizona Republic reported. The Navajo County Republican Committee said he altered military discharge papers to falsely claim combat veteran status and showed "qualifications and awards which you have not earned." Slaton denied the accusations as a "left wing smear campaign.""

Citing Lack Of Evidence, Judge Finds In Favor Of Slaton
Slaton said he intends to continue his pursuit of the LD-7 seat. “My dream is to get rid of the Republicans-in-name-only, which are a bigger problem than the Democrats. I have got to help Wendy Rogers and keep fighting the good fight on how the election got stolen in 2020 and 2022. We need to get good legislation while stopping the bad legislation and protecting our rights that are being stripped away by the federal government. We also need to stop this nonsense with windmills and solar, it is a big scam. We need to keep our coal and nuclear energy. Businesses need energy to come up here. Energy made in Arizona should stay in Arizona.
