‘Follow the money’: Mayes targets fuel pro-Petersen PAC in Arizona’s GOP attorney general race

In Arizona’s GOP attorney general race, Senate President Warren Petersen is receiving financial support from a PAC linked to private prison company GEO Group. The Restore Order Arizona PAC is running ads claiming Petersen would be tough on illegal immigration, contrasting him with his opponent. This financial backing raises questions about the influence of private interests in state-level politics and the broader implications for policy decisions if Petersen wins. The race highlights the intersection of corporate interests and political campaigns, underscoring the importance of scrutinizing where candidates get their funding.
