On May 30, filing for the Arizona primaries closed, for candidates who wish to have their names placed on primary ballots. Stephen Dolgos of New River, Arizona, filed 171 signatures to run in the Americans Elect primary for Congress in the new 8th district. As far as is known, he is the first person who has filed to run in any Americans Elect primary in any state.
Dolgos was permitted to obtain signatures from registered voters who are not members of a political party, as well as from voters who are registered as Americans Elect Party members.
There is a little confusion on the Sec. of State's website. There is a list of candidates for the Primary. But it also says CD8 is a Special Election to be held on June 12, 2012. The list shows a Democrat, two Republicans, and Mr. Dolgos as an Americans Elect candidate.
