Democratic Association of Secretaries of State Congratulates Adrian Fontes, Arizona’s Secretary of State
WASHINGTON – Democratic Association of Secretaries of State (DASS) executive director Chelsey Wininger released the following statement congratulating Adrian Fontes on being declared the winner in his campaign for Secretary of State.
“Sec. Fontes ran an incredibly strong campaign making sure all of Arizona knew Alex Kolodin’s long history not only of trying to overturn the 2020 election, but also his weird positions that are out of step with Arizona values, like when he tried to repeal the ban on pipe bombs. Fortunately, Arizona is rejecting that vision tonight and standing with Adrian Fontes, a veteran who never backs down from doing what’s right. Congratulations to my friend, Adrian Fontes, and to the voters of Arizona, who will have an experienced public servant at the wheel for their elections for years to come.”
There are 26 secretary of state elections on the ballot in 2026. Of these, Democrats and Republicans each control 13.
The Democratic Association of Secretaries of State is the only organization solely dedicated to electing and protecting Democratic Secretaries of States. When you support DASS you’re helping to flip Secretary of State offices into Democratic hands and restore the right to vote.
