The heavily Democratic Congressional District 3 is seemingly open for takers now that Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-AZ, has announced that he’ll run for Senate.   Several Democrats are considering a run, but it’s a big risk. In such a blue district, whichever Democrat wins the primary is almost guaranteed the seat, and there’s no limit on how many primary candidates can run.  

The City of Phoenix is heading in the right direction.

Former U.S. Rep. Ed Pastor, Arizona's first Hispanic congressman, has died at age 75.

Josh Zaragoza, a Democrat who has worked on gay rights issues and for a Phoenix City Council member, now runs Elected Digital, a firm that aims to create digital campaigns based on data.

A referendum drive that halted a controversial election law may have turned the tide in a Phoenix City Council race where early ballot collection played a major role.
