Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Luis Pozzolo (R)

JOBS AND PROSPERITY The unemployment rate in Southern Arizona is double the national average. Tucson ranks as the 5th poorest city in the USA. Over twenty years, the policies of Raul Grijalva have devastated our economy. His policies only cut opportunities for you, not for corporations and politicians. I am an entrepreneur and a business owner. I have a life and a purpose outside of politics. With proven models, I aim to generate opportunity and economic growth in a safe and honest way. Our communities deserve to have access to the same opportunities that others do. We need to attract outside investors into our State and our District and make them see the value it holds. I have been very successful in doing this in private business. So, I k

EDUCATION The first 7 years of a child's life are the most important. This is when they will learn to become a human being. Radical activists are forcing curriculums about sex and race into K-5 classrooms. We must stop the teaching of hate and division in our schools. It is time to end the sexual grooming of our children. Parents should have the choice of which school their children attend. So those who want their children to learn trades can do so, and ensure they're prepared for adult life.

TRADITIONAL FAMILY VALUES Our traditional family values are under attack. Grijalva is pushing to indoctrinate your children through the school boards. He believes it's the school's right to teach children how they should view themselves. He does not believe in parents' rights. He is a radical who supports abortions, welfare, and dependence on government. As your congressman, I want to provide our people with every opportunity to succeed. This means a strong foundation is very important. This can only exist in a community that focuses on the strength of the nuclear family unit. Our traditional values are the foundation we all build our world perspective on. We cannot allow radical activists in government to attack our strong family values.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Luis Pozzolo (R)

Jobs and prosperity, stopping Grijalva's war on mining and the oil industry, socialism, education, trade, family values, border, and supporting law and order.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

• Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
• Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
• Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.
• Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Arizona in 2022. Information below was calculated on June 23, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

Thirty-nine candidates filed to run in Arizona's nine U.S. House districts, including 10 Democrats and 29 Republicans. That's 4.33 candidates per district, more than the 4.22 candidates per district in 2020 and the 4.11 in 2018.

This was the first election to take place under new district lines following the 2020 census. Arizona was apportioned nine districts, the same number it was apportioned after the 2010 census. The 39 candidates who filed to run this year were the most candidates running for Arizona's U.S. House seats since at least 2014, the earliest year for which we have data.

One district — the 6th — was open. That’s one more than in 2020, and one less than in 2018. Rep. David Schweikert (R), who represented the 6th district, filed to run in the 1st district. Rep. Tom O'Halleran (D), who represented the 1st district, filed to run in the 2nd district, where incumbent Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick (D) did not seek re-election.

The 2nd and 6th districts attracted the most candidates this year, with eight candidates running in each. There were eight contested primaries this year — two Democratic and six Republican. That's the fewest contested primaries since 2014, when there were five contested primaries.

Six incumbents — four Democrats and two Republicans — did not face any primary challengers. The 8th and 9th districts were guaranteed to Republicans because no Democrats filed to run. No districts were guaranteed to Democrats because no Republicans filed.
