Republican congressional candidate Kathleen Winn, who hopes to unseat U.S. Rep. Juan Ciscomani in the July 30 GOP primary, made her case to voters in a forum Wednesday night.
Winn, who is making her second run against Ciscomani in Southern Arizona’s CD6, said she was a conservative alternative to the Republican representative. In 2022, she got 19 percent of the vote in a five-way primary that saw Ciscomani prevail with 44 percent.
“His voting record has him be a bipartisan moderate, which he proudly has been touting,” said Winn, who has previously worked for the Arizona Attorney General’s Office and hosted a local radio show about politics. “He votes more with the Democrats than he does with the Republicans.”
Ciscomani, who declined to participate in the Clean Elections/Arizona Media Association event, was recently named the most bipartisan member of Congress in Arizona. He ranked 45 among the 435 members that make up the U.S. House of Representatives.
