Template:Sidebar with collapsible lists The Arizona Green Party (AZGP) is the officially recognized affiliate of the Green Party in the state of Arizona. It was founded by Carolyn Campbell alongside others in the 1990s. Sam Hales, whose term expires January 2025, serves as Co-Chairperson of the Arizona Green Party with Zakir Siddiqi.[1]

History

Ballot access

In 2008, the Arizona Green Party gathered enough signatures to gain ballot access.[2] The party had worked with Arizona's ballot access laws, achieving ballot access for the 2000 election cycle, then losing it again in 2004. On March 6, 2008, the Arizona deadline for ballot access, the Arizona Green Party submitted 29,300 signatures on its petition for party recognition. The legal requirement is 20,449. On April 9, 2008, Arizona Secretary of State Jan Brewer announced that the Arizona Green Party had enough valid signatures to be recognized as an official political party.[3]

On April 28, 2011, Governor Jan Brewer signed HB 2304, which says that when a new party qualifies, it is entitled to be on the ballot in the next two elections, not just the next election. As a result, the Green Party was automatically on the ballot for 2012 because it had successfully petitioned in 2010.[4][5]

In 2016, the Arizona Green Party successfully sued the state of Arizona to ensure its presidential nominee, Jill Stein, was placed on the ballot after the party failed to submit a slate of Presidential electors on time.[6] Jill Stein received a total of 34,345 votes in Arizona, leaving her with 1.3% of the total vote.[7]

In December 2023, Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes announced that the Arizona Green Party had enough signatures to be recognized as an official political party and is eligible to appear on statewide and legislative election ballots in 2024 and 2026. [8]

The Green Party of Arizona did not appear on the March State of Arizona 2024 Presidential Preference Election ballot due to not being recognized as an official political party in time. But potential candidates will be placed on the Primary and General Elections in 2024.[8]

Campaigns

Prominent Green candidates in Arizona have included Vance Hansen, who ran for the US Senate in 2000 and received 108,926 votes. Claudia Ellquist ran for Pima County Attorney in 2004 on a platform largely focused on declaring a moratorium on the death penalty. Dave Croteau ran for mayor of Tucson in 2007 on a platform of relocalization and received over 28% of the vote.[9]

2016 primary election results

The Arizona Green Party held its primary on March 22, 2016. Jill Stein won with 79.6% of the vote, and the overall number of voters that took part in the primary saw an increase from 561 in 2012 to 817 in 2016.[10] Only two candidates qualified for the primary:[11]
