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.[3][4][5]

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

This page focuses on Arizona's 6th Congressional District Republican primary. For more in-depth information on the district's Democratic primary and the general election, see the following pages:

Submitted Biography:  "First off, I love to tell people about my background. It’s one that’s very common for millions of Americans. I am an immigrant and a son of immigrants. I moved here with my parents from Mexico when I was 5. Tucson has been my home since then. I grew up here and graduated from college, the University of Arizona, the first member of my family to do so. This background shaped me into who I am and why I am so proud to be an American. America truly is the only place where my story can happen. After graduating, I met my wife Laura while interning in Washington D.C. We’ve been able to create a beautiful life for us and our 6 kids. I see my story as an example of the American Dream, something that should inspire everyone in our nation. From working in Republican and Democratic offices, I know that it takes both sides to work together to get real results for the American people. I have always felt that my background helps me make decisions and I’m proud to be a part of the American Dream."

Key Messages

Immigration is an issue close to my heart. It’s had a long history in America and been how so many families can trace their roots. But the border has too long been the vessel for dangerous substances like fentanyl and the increase of human trafficking. We must secure the border as soon as possible and do it in the right manner. This includes making our immigration process better equipped and more capable to help immigrants receive citizenship. It took over ten years for my family and I to receive citizenship and it shouldn’t be this way.

When I talk to people here in Southern Arizona, I constantly hear that the price of housing, groceries, and general day to day necessities have gone out of control. The inflation of the past 4 years has seen too many Americans losing more and more of their savings. It should never be this expensive to live in America or Southern Arizona. Government spending under this administration has ballooned to levels we’ve never seen before and Congress leaves the American people to feel the pressure. Common sense reduction in spending is needed immediately.

Arizona is a state where water is a precious resource. And we are reaching a point where we need to have serious conversations about how we are to conserve water in Arizona into the future. This takes bipartisan support and effort to do this, water access doesn’t just affect Republicans; it affects all of us.

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography:  "My name is Kathleen Winn. I have resided in Arizona since 1976 when I moved to Tucson to attend and graduate from The University of Arizona with a degree in Communications. I am married to Albert Winn (Former VP of the Boeing Attack Helicopter Program). We have seven adult children and 18 grandchildren. I spent 5 years in Television before moving into marketing and advertising. The majority of my career was in real estate, banking and finance for over 27 years. I served as a State Director for the Arizona Attorney General's office as the Director of Community Outreach and Education. My job was to warn consumers where they were most vulnerable to crime. I worked extensively with Veterans and help to set up Veterans' Courts. I set up TASA Taskforce against Senior Abuse, and ICAC. Internet Crimes Against Children. It is here that I found my passion and have spent the last 14 years fighting sexual exploitation of children, sex trafficking, mutilation, and pedophilia. I am currently the Executive Director of Project 25. A non-profit which finds missing kids and fights sex trafficking. I have entered this race to restore the founding father's vision of this country for our next generations.

Key Messages

Securing the border, identifying who is here and deporting all whom are in our country illegally. There is no higher priority than to save this nation. Defend our Constitution and restore law and order at the border. It is critical we as a nation supported by the efforts of the US Congress put forth efforts to detect criminal enterprises profiting off illicit drugs, human smuggling and sex trafficking. We must empower the disruption of these activities which are an active invasion and disrupt the flow of drugs, humans and monies into our country. Finally, we must dismantle the corruption and prosecute those who have intentionally caused harm to America and her citizens.

Reduction of spending and the overall size of Government is my second priority. The Government has a spending problem. The amount of money being allocated and spent exceeds our tax revenues. The amount of debt and the interest on that debt exceeds 35 trillion dollars. We are spending into generations not yet born. Our lack of accountability and oversite in government programs is at the heart of the issue. We have many programs, offices, grants that have no Congressional oversite but are baked into the budget. Creating a balanced budget, reducing spending and eliminating waste. We need to stop creating and forgiving debt.

Energy Independence is key to healing America. We cannot be reliant on other countries for resources we have in our country. The U.S. needs to produce more energy than we consume, by unleashing the full potential of the American Oil industry. We cannot allow the climate change agenda to dictate an energy policy that is disadvantageous to America. Every household and business across this country relies on competitive energy pricing in order to compete in increasingly global markets. We must do everything in our power to produce the lowest energy prices for our economy.
