Here’s the race you’re going to want to keep your eyes on. This November, voters will have to decide between US Rep. Juan Ciscomani (R-Tucson) or his Democratic challenger, a Marine and Navy veteran JoAnna Mendoza.
It’ll be a tight race—Arizona’s 6th Congressional District is nearly evenly split, and Democrats have been eyeing it for years.
Facing military veteran JoAnna Mendoza, Republican Juan Ciscomani is defending his record on SNAP cuts while millions in mega-donor cash—including from Elon Musk—flood into Tucson’s battleground race.
