🧵 Let’s get clear about some facts. My woefully inexperienced opponent came out of nowhere in this race. He was admitted to the AZ State Bar to practice law in May 2017.
He worked for MCAO as an entry-level prosecutor for a couple of yrs., has lied ad nauseam about his experience, & was involved with low level crimes like shoplifting & drug possession.
His brother made him a several day $1MIL loan to get on the radar of Trump. And it worked. He grifted the grifter & earned Trump’s endorsement with his willingness to spread baseless election conspiracies & prop up the heavily debunked 2000 Mules film.
He lacks the experience, honesty + integrity to be hired for any partner position of any real law firm, has no managerial experience, yet thinks he can run the largest law firm in the state, which is preposterous.
He continues to make baseless lies about me and my experience, while demonstrating his lack of understanding of the duties of the Attorney General’s office. The bulk of law practiced within this office is Administrative Law, which is my area of expertise.
I was admitted to the AZ State Bar in Jan. 2005 & have taught law, as well as won two statewide elections for the Arizona Corporation Commission - a quasi-judicial role enshrined in our Arizona Constitution.
I’m proud of the work I did while serving AZ as a Commissioner, including overseeing 2700 cases that included high level Securities Fraud cases. The AG doesn’t prosecute shoplifters or DUI’s. The AG doesn’t operate like Batman, calling our city “Gotham” & baselessly attack media.
My opponent has made hundreds of anti-Semitic comments, committed voter fraud, lied on his campaign financial disclosure statement, stole land from his father, and is purportedly under investigation by the DoD.
His continued lies are dangerous & pose a threat to our election security. He has stated he is in support of the 1864 abortion ban & would lock up doctors, nurses & pharmacists for abortion. This cannot stand.
He would be a rogue Attorney General with the sole mission of serving Trump, autocracy & chaos for our state. I have the endorsements of four previous Arizona Attorneys General, plus countless respected leaders, including Democrats, Independents & non-MAGA Republicans.
I am committed to cleaning up this important office, restoring integrity + transparency, working across the aisle for the betterment of Arizona & protecting ALL Arizonans. I want to be your #LawyerForThePeople.
Please take action today. This race will be close and we need all hands on deck to get across the finish line. krismayes.com/take-action

🧵 Speaking of the office of Arizona Attorney General, transparency, character, truthfulness, and the rule of law, I believe it’s time for Mr. Hamadeh to be square with the people of Arizona about the following:
1. Stole land from father - Questions: Did you disclose lawsuit on character & fitness application to the AZ State Bar? Yes or no? Are you willing to request your application and prove it? Looking back, do you have any remorse about what you and your siblings did to your father?
2. Election denial - Questions: Can you explain how you would decertify the 2020 election? Can you give us the names of the people you would “lock up and put in handcuffs” and share the exact crimes you would charge them with? Who do you believe is the current POTUS?
🧵 Our current Attorney General, Mark Brnovich, has just waged war against Arizona women and our healthcare providers. Brnovich is falling back to a 100+ year old law, which would imprison doctors and others for providing abortion care.
This cannot stand. This will cause irreparable harm to our families, to our economy, to our businesses and to our healthcare providers. But most of all – this will harm women – and especially those women who already face numerous barriers to equitable healthcare.
As your next Attorney General, I will absolutely not allow the arrest or imprisonment of our reproductive healthcare providers, including doctors, nurses, PAs, midwives, pharmacists or others. This is outrageous.
It is critical that Doctors, PA’s, nurses, midwives & doulas can safely counsel + support their patients/clients.
It is critical that anyone who endures the trauma of rape or incest is not forced to face the additional trauma of carrying a pregnancy to term if that isn’t their choice, without duress, to do so.
