Hiral Tipirneni defeated Anita Malik, Stephanie Rimmer, and Karl Gentles in the Democratic primary for Arizona's 6th Congressional District on August 4, 2020. Tipirneni received 53% of the vote to Malik's 37%. Rimmer and Gentles each received less than 10% of the vote.[1]

Gentles, Malik, and Tipirneni led in endorsements, fundraising, and media attention. In 2018, Malik was the Democratic nominee in this district, while Tipirneni was the Democratic nominee in the neighboring 8th District.

Malik was endorsed by Demand Universal Healthcare and Peace Action. She said, "As a tech executive and small business owner, I know we must create well-paying jobs in emerging industries and in sectors proven to benefit local communities."[2]

Tipirneni, who received endorsements from U.S. Reps. Ann Kirkpatrick (D-Ariz.) and Tom O'Halleran (D-Ariz.) and groups including EMILY's List, End Citizens United, and Planned Parenthood Action Fund, highlighted her background as an emergency physician.[3]

Gentles, who received the endorsement of Our Voice, Our Vote Arizona, said he learned the value of bipartisan service while working for Arizona political figures including Sen. John McCain (R) and Gov. Bruce Babbitt (D).[4]

As of July 2020, major independent observers rated the general election as lean Republican or likely Republican. The 2017 Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district was R+9, meaning that in the previous two presidential elections, this district's results were nine percentage points more Republican than the national average. In 2018, incumbent David Schweikert (R) defeated Malik by a margin of 10.4 percentage points. In the 2016 election, Schweikert won re-election by a margin of 24.2 percentage points.

Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.

"I learned the power of placing duty, honor, and country above self. I saw the results that are possible when you honor the values of hard work, transparency, and character. I carry those lessons with me to this day. I’ve been preparing to serve you, the people of Congressional District 6, for more than three decades. I choose principles over politics and political ambition. I have the experience it takes to get things done, here and in Washington, D.C."

"It's time to turn our anger into action. We need meaningful reforms: body cameras, better police training, no chokeholds, and full accountability for bad behavior. We can balance equality, community, and safety."

"Countries around the world have done a better job of managing economic downturns in part because their people have faith in their institutions, their leadership, and each other. Without trust, you can’t have family economics that is sustainable, retirement benefits that deliver the outcomes we’ve worked hard for, salaries you can live on, water supplies that are clean, medicines that are safe, and hospitals that have sufficient capacity to care for us when needed. Our society is vulnerable and at-risk in many ways. We have to trust each other and we have to trust our government to be there when we need it."

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography:  "I've been a progressive leader in the tech and publishing industries for nearly two decades, tirelessly fighting for workplace equality. As a woman in tech, former COO and Deputy Director, I've often led the way for women and people of color to have an equal voice at the table by fighting for inclusiveness, equal pay and maternity leave. In 2018, I had the honor and privilege to be the Democratic nominee representing our district's families. I know this district, I grew up here and went to our public schools. Because of my deep roots here, we made history in the 2018 election. We grew a grassroots movement, people who had never engaged in politics turned out to create change. We won a competitive 3-way primary, and went on to swing the district 14 points in the general election. But during the general, my husband, James, had a catastrophic health emergency, resulting in over $200,000 in medical bills. We had insurance, but our broken health care system failed our family, leaving us to be part of the ⅓ of American families struggling with medical debt. I'm ready to fight for our families and enact the changes we need."

Key Messages

To read this candidate's full survey responses, click here.

STRENGTHENING OUR FAMILIES: ECONOMY, JOBS AND EDUCATION I'll prioritize direct investments to our families and small businesses to ensure healthy people and a healthy economy well beyond this crisis. This includes helping to cover payroll and benefits for small businesses during COVID-19; continuing stimulus checks; establishing greater housing and rental protections; expanding and strengthening our supply chains; enacting universal paid family, medical and sick leave; extending unemployment assistance; ensuring stronger labor and fair trade policies; strengthening Social Security and passing a livable wage. I won't hesitate to empower our families. That's my commitment.

KEEPING OUR FAMILIES HEALTHY: ENACTING HEALTH CARE AS A RIGHT We must move boldly away from employer-based coverage to guaranteed health care for all. However, if we're unable to pass a Medicare-for-All solution, I'll take meaningful, urgent steps to strengthen the ACA and build the foundation for universal health care. We must offer Medicare as a strong and affordable option for the uninsured and underinsured; end surprise billing and lower prescription drug prices. We must also take bold measures to effectively curb COVID-19. This includes having a unified response that protects frontline workers; develops vaccines and treatments and takes action to manufacture PPEs, ventilators and tests.

EMPOWERING OUR VOICES: FIGHTING CORRUPTION AND CORPORATE INFLUENCE IN POLITICS I strongly stand against corporate influence over our Democracy and party; we must always put people over profits. To empower our community, I'm running a grassroots campaign with no corporate PAC money or self-funding. In fact, I'm the only candidate in this race with a plan and pledge to restore our voice in Congress. I'll enact a lifetime ban on lobbying for elected officials and require their tax returns; promote matching public funds for small donors; fight dark money; encourage independent redistricting; prohibit lawmakers from owning individual stocks and establish automatic voter registration. No American should be left voiceless in our Democracy.

Primaries in Arizona

A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election. Arizona utilizes a semi-closed primary system. Unaffiliated voters may choose which party's primary they will vote in, but voters registered with a party can only vote in that party's primary.[17][18][19]

For information about which offices are nominated via primary election, see this article.

What was at stake in the general election?

See also: Arizona's 6th Congressional District election, 2020

U.S. House elections were held on November 3, 2020, and coincided with the 2020 presidential election. All 435 House districts were up for election, and the results determined control of the U.S. House in the 117th Congress.

At the time of the election, Democrats had a 232-197 advantage over Republicans. There was one Libertarian member, and there were five vacancies. Republicans needed to gain a net 21 seats to win control of the House. Democrats needed to gain seats or lose fewer than 14 net seats to keep their majority.

In the 2018 midterm election, Democrats had a net gain of 40 seats, winning a 235-200 majority in the House. Heading into the 2018 election, Republicans had a 235-193 majority with seven vacancies.

In the 25 previous House elections that coincided with a presidential election, the president's party had gained House seats in 16 elections and lost seats in nine. In years where the president's party won districts, the average gain was 18. In years where the president's party lost districts, the average loss was 27.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

  • Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
  • Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
  • Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[20]
  • Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[21][22][23]

The 2017 Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district was R+9, meaning that in the previous two presidential elections, this district's results were 9 percentage points more Republican than the national average. This made Arizona's 6th Congressional District the 139th most Republican nationally.[24]

FiveThirtyEight's September 2018 elasticity score for states and congressional districts measured "how sensitive it is to changes in the national political environment."
