Trans Spectrum AZ has been holding community meetings for gender-expansive people, but their goals are loftier than just talking to each other. LOOKOUT spoke with Jay Brown, board member of TSAZ, to learn more.
Some key races we're looking at over the next few months, and what we learned from last night.
Most people show up in primaries to vote their support for a presidential candidate, Arizonans did that a while ago in their presidential preference vote several months ago.
Instead, last night was when many races were decided across the state. Not only do those who won in their primary battles continue on to fairly uncompetitive districts, but there were a handful of nonpartisan races that decided leadership in smaller towns and cities.
For this election season, LOOKOUT is the only news agency in the state that will focus on the candidates with a history of anti-LGBTQ+ messaging, either through their campaigns or through their time in office, as well as following the races of people who are in the state LGBTQ+ caucus in competitive districts, or people who champion LGBTQ+ rights.
