Winning The House With Kirsten Engel (AZ-6)

Published | Video Starts at 03:01

I moved to Arizona 20 years ago with my infant daughter to teach at the University of Arizona. And I'm also a former state legislator, served in both Arizona state House and Senator Senate and I'm a mom. And I also ran for this district in 2020 election, the midterms and missed winning it. Winning by one of the closest margins in the country. Missed winning by just about 1%. 5,232 votes. So an incredibly close race and I was outspent six to one. (03:01–03:08)
