Arizona Association of REALTORS® Releases 2010 Election Endorsements

Brewer, Rotellini and Leff among those receiving endorsements

PHOENIX – The Arizona Association of REALTORS® has released its list of endorsements for the upcoming 2010 election.  This follows nearly six weeks of interviews of the candidates running for both statewide and legislative district offices. 

Endorsements are based on voting records, interviews and scrutinized questionnaires.  Candidates were asked their positions on issues important to homeowners, REALTORS® and the real estate industry.  All Democratic and Republican candidates who submitted a completed questionnaire for office were interviewed. Once the process was complete, the Arizona Association of REALTORS® Political Action Committee determined its top choices for each statewide office and legislative district. 

“We take the endorsement process very seriously,” said Tom Farley, Arizona Association of REALTORS® Chief Executive Officer.  “Only after a careful evaluation of the candidate’s positions and voting record, will we provide an endorsement.  Everyone with an interest in real estate issues should use this as a guide when voting this year.”

Jan Brewer received the endorsement for governor in her bid to win reelection, while Felecia Rotellini was endorsed for attorney general and Barbara Leff for treasurer. Gary Pierce and Brenda Burns received AAR’s endorsement for the Arizona Corporation Commission. A complete list of endorsements is included below.  

The primary election will be held on August 24th and the general election will be on November 2nd.
